October 17, 2020 By Nancy Bailey 7 Comments

The University of South Florida (USF) has announced the end of their education school due to a $36.7 million university budget cut. The change will save $6.8 million over two years.

Who does a College of Education, meant to prepare teachers to teach, teach when they partner with a private school that celebrates no teachers? It’s a mystery. These are transformational schools. But transformation doesn’t always work. Psst. Pixie dust is, […]

Professional Teachers—Click, Click! Poof! You’re Gone!

November 11, 2015 By Nancy Bailey 8 Comments

A way to purge the country of real teachers is to extinguish their teacher education programs and make teaching look like a regimented practice that any drill sergeant […]

@PennBat I worry that many students with disabilities will miss out on inclusion classes with their non-disabled peers with vouchers. The best they will find are segregated charters or private schools that only focus on the disability.

1. You lost

@RepKrajewski the money doesn't belong to the government schools.

education funding is meant for educating children, not for protecting a particular institution.

we should fund students, not systems.

@SecCardona There's a place for technology. It's important. But so are teachers and a child's privacy. I wonder if you're paying attention to this, @SecCardona. https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/medialse/2022/05/18/algorithmic-personalization-is-disrupting-a-healthy-teaching-environment/
