I write on a large number of sites.Some of them, people don't see any problem with education points way surprenante.Sur other sites at the other extreme, people were totally abandoned hope: public schools are rotten and will always be this way.

To me, I'm in the middle. I see a lot of problems, but I'm trying to find ways to repair.Now, all experts agree that the November elections will allow huge fluctuations Congressman j. ' encourages people to start thinking now about the kind of change that they would like supports.

Here is my proposal great eight for education (in an article published on the right).

1) Promote and strengthen the schools of the Charter, coupons, homeschooling and all types of private schools, the diversity and competition because as a means of improving.

2) All teachers need to major in the subjects they teach. Just as nurses have degrees in nursing, biology teachers must have degrees in biology. (Currently, that many teachers unprepared is told to teach subjects they know little.)(Laughing).

3) Support fast track alternative licensing.If Intelligent, educated people want to leave the other fields to be teachers, all what they really need is several months of training in the classroom. To capture these people and putting them to work as soon as possible.

4) Make schools safe.School boards and school principals must be held accountable for eliminating violence in schools. (There are many more violence in schools more realize people; and it seems to be tacitly accepted.) Zero tolerance seems to be a cynical ploy to distract people from the real issue is with children adults could be imprisoned for acts. A pill in a handbag is not problème.Coups and injuries is the problem.(Physical injury reporting is the problem.)

5) Teachers should not be required to join a Trade Union. The power of the NEA is a major problem in the union réforme.Cette uses contributions forced to elect political allies, almost always Democrats. (Incessant political activity of the NEA should be reformed, especially if the contributions are applied, as many teachers pay for the policy that they oppose versus which are legal?)

6) Revoke, cancel, or scale race back to the top.This has always been a stunt by the Government to impose its will on local education.We want to go in exactly in the opposite direction.There is no mention in the constitution of a federal education .the role States should be encouraged to innovate and compete with each other, step submit to absurd contenders who did the damage so far.

7) Reduce moitié.Et Education Department and then start again.This thing must never was created (this is a gift from pay-back of democracy at the NEA).Similarly, cut half the role of educational institutions.These sites took two years for two month information.

8) Trying to dismantle the untruths and gadgets introduced by progressive educators in the past 100 years, for example, Sight words, New Math reform math, constructivism, self-esteem, multiculturalism, tolerance of any kind, group learning, etc.Instead, it should be a renewed focus on the basic knowledge and skills base, with the mastery of both.

At least, this is a real tirer.Supposons even half of these articles became list.The four.The power of the creation of education would be much réduite.Nous see real amélioration.Mais the first step in a much more engaged audience.
