Now if we could get this message to educational administration at all levels of government so they will let teachers teach and find other soft political issues to run for office on.
Teaching is more an art (I'd go as far as saying talent) than a learned skill. But seriously, how many more times is an educational theorist going to tell us, the educators, these obvious, obvious things? Relevance, motivation, personalization - no kidding, they all matter and work. Technology is wonderful, marvellous, astonishing - uh, yeah... but more to to Sir Ken's generation than to kids and teens that don't know a world without it. Just like our parents didn't marvel at indoor electricity.
And exactly how many years of K - 12 education has Sir Ken taught? How many students has Sir Ken taught to read, write, do math, learn science, understand history? How many K - 12 Schools has Sir Ken ever administered, or been held accountable for having students learn basic knowledge skills? ZERO, ZERO, ZERO! He spent his entire teaching career in a University, teaching Drama. He is full of great happy talk, mainly because he doesn't have to actually teach it. He's full of something
spot on Ken!
