Trying to teach kids as much as they can learn is often part of the way that we care about them most. People are drawn into teaching for a lot of reasons, but those who stay, stay for one reason above all: caring about the kids.

Student debate has the capacity to both deeply engage the students in relevant learning, and to encourage students to be deep thinkers. Debate is more than simply arguing.

Too many times students with ability opted out or were encouraged to take easier courses because of factors having nothing to do with academics. I think Algebra II should be required and options given if problems arise after an honest attempt to master the subject. I am afraid legislators are using their own bad experiences with math to make policy that doesn't move mathematics education forward. Delete the scoop?
