In your initial post address the following prompts:
- Analyze the “Our Failing Schools” Ted Talk and discuss its potential effect on the current educational landscape.
- Which parts affected you the most, why or why not?
- Review the ideas presented in the article and explain why they are interesting to you.
- Did you agree with the article? Why or why not?
- Do the ideas on homework presented in the article change how you are developing your unit plan?
In your conversations with your classmates I would like you to explore:
- Whether their stance has changed or solidified your own personal views on the use of homework.
