Looks like the conversation has begun...

So let's keep it going... as you read your book, think about the things that come about in the text that relate, contest, support, contradict things we have discussed in class. Jeremy, thanks for sharing the link to the Kohn piece on Waiting for Superman, something we should definitely throw into the mix.

As you read, think of questions that come to mind. How does this book relate to your own emergent beliefs about education? about students? about the role of the teacher in the classroom? about contemporary educational issues? Think, in particular, about the way in which the author of your book addresses, critiques, comments on, builds from underlying narratives regarding the meaning of education.

Let's see where the conversation leads....
