Some students were very and smart and engaging, but struggled with writing essays and fulfilling their class requirements. This paradox was hard to witness, although the students I knew had resources, I wondered how many other students in their position did not. In order to downplay their frustrations I often told the kids not to worry because when they get to college they will have a much more positive experience. In retrospect, it seems like these young people were never meant to be on the “track” for college, which only confirms <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Apple">Apple’s</a> position.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Georgia;">Read more <a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=BHGX12yAdZEC&pg=PA116&lpg=PA116&dq=michael+apple+education+old+humanists&source=bl&ots=kHPupohRnG&sig=Nf_cj-VuP9HGIL03DLhHphcuo40&hl=en&ei=uvGzTLSwA4yssAPu4J2TCA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=3&ved=0CCUQ6AEwAg#v=onepage&q=michael%20apple%20education%20old%20humanists&f=false">HERE</a> and <a href="http://freireproject.org/content/michael-apple">HERE</a></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Georgia;">Oakland Turf Dancing:</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JQRRnAhmB58?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/JQRRnAhmB58?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><br /></span></p> <!--EndFragment--> </span></div>Ritahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04527399787985049890noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7811169742419169195.post-63962606482472720222010-10-10T19:42:00.000-07:002010-10-10T19:46:28.696-07:00Quote<div>"Education is an admirable thing, but is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught."</div><div>--<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_Wilde">Oscar Wilde</a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:100%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br /></span></span></div>Ritahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04527399787985049890noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7811169742419169195.post-51524976532625433262010-10-10T19:32:00.000-07:002010-10-10T19:36:39.655-07:00Waiting for Superman?????<div><br /></div><div>Waiting for Superman Trailer</div><div><object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Awirom2bh0s?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Awirom2bh0s?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Interview w/ Rick Ayers</div><div><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/eNaEnWI6qYE?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/eNaEnWI6qYE?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></div><div><br /></div><div>Read more about Rick Ayers' thoughts <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/rick-ayers-/an-inconvenient-superman-_b_716420.html">HERE</a></div><div>Read more about the film <a href="http://www.educationnews.org/blogs/101053.html">HERE</a></div>Ritahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04527399787985049890noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7811169742419169195.post-26509989223442027812010-09-28T23:42:00.000-07:002010-09-28T23:44:41.700-07:00Buffet's Thoughts<div>Warren Buffet on Jay-Z:</div><div><br /></div><div>"Jay is teaching in a lot bigger classroom than I'll ever teach in.
