But I think I will start writing more.Penelopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05577413050164476723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8216799050256639179.post-46088372775570679552012-01-16T02:53:35.360-05:002012-01-16T02:53:35.360-05:00What do you think about this all these months late...What do you think about this all these months later? <br /><br />And, why don't you post more?Ed Darrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10056539160596825210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8216799050256639179.post-55757149294634435672009-11-19T05:15:00.528-05:002009-11-19T05:15:00.528-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Research Papers Writinghttp://www.researchpaperspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8216799050256639179.post-3586261752136756772009-05-02T18:01:00.000-04:002009-05-02T18:01:00.000-04:00English, history, math...

I'm sure we could find ourselves a science teacher with similar complaints, too.<br /><br />Is there anyone who cares about their discipline, whatever it is, who doesn't feel that standardization takes all the joy and creativity and everything else good out of teaching and learning that discipline?<br /><br />Not that I have time to think about this further, gotta go prep for SOL tests in about a week. ;)Penelopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05577413050164476723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8216799050256639179.post-27533984789140866202009-05-02T12:31:00.000-04:002009-05-02T12:31:00.000-04:00I feel the same way about how English is taught, e...I feel the same way about how English is taught, especially writing.

But this is what standardization does.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15379096331960338241noreply@blogger.com
