In our public schools, students in lower-income communities are already given fewer opportunities than students from affluent communities. If there are drastic education budget cuts, the opportunity gap will only get bigger.

Technology allows students to become more independent in the classroom. But is the change from teacher to facilitator a positive move for the profession? Mike Britland is firmly in favour Via John Evans, Tom Perran

"Do focus on how technology can aid not hinder student progress" I think it is also important to think about how technology can facilitate learning as well.

Great insight into how technology has transformed not just the learner but the role of "teacher" in the classroom. Great advice for teachers who are stepping into integration and encouragement for effective integration. Delete the scoop?

Después de tantos artículos sobre liderazgo, muy especialmente de liderazgo de la mujer, hemos estado pensando que es hora de hablar ya en absoluta igualdad, es decir, que casi sería una tautología hablar de liderazgo de la mujer o liderazgo del hombre, porque lo que en sí vale, con todas sus consecuencias por los contenidos del término, es que el líder es neutro en cuanto a género se refiere. Puede ser Hillary Clinton, Michelle Bachelet, Christine Lagarde o Dilma Roussef; por otro lado tenemos a Obama, Cameron u Hollande. Todos ellos son líderes políticos. Cuando Christine Lagarde asumió su cargo, se insistió en exceso en que era la primera mujer directora de la alta institución multilateral. Ya no es necesario esforzarse en remarcar este hecho: basta con decir, Christine Lagarde, líder del FMI. Igualmente debería tomarse nota para cada vez que una mujer ocupa un puesto de alta responsabilidad, sea en la esfera pública o privada. Es tiempo de decir líder a secas, como se dice de los hombres. El problema es que la sociedad sigue siendo mayoritariamente machista(aunque no queramos admitirlo). Todo está construido, pensado y orquestado para un mundo de hombres líderes; por eso el término líder, a secas, se vincula automáticamente a un hombre y no a una mujer, lo que nos lleva a tener que aclararlo.

Totalmente de acuerdo con lo que expone el autor del artículo, si deseamos llegar a una sociedad más igualitaria en la que feminismos y machismos sean cosas del pasado, hemos de comenzar en casa.

Technology has totally changed my teaching and my students' learning. It is now my goal to create "learning opportunities" for my students to pursue. It allows students to accelerate their studies and frees up my classroom time to give one to one and small group instruction for those who need it. Delete the scoop?
