NCLB

Hello,
NET Members!
Are you getting the same media
messages regarding NCLB that I am? More and more groups are pressing
members of Congress to radically alter NCLB in much the way we are. And
more and more of those members of Congress are acknowledging
that 1) ELL and special ed students have unique requirements; 2) states
need more leeway for using multiple means of assessment, as well as
the funding to pay for it; and 3) punishing schools and kids is
counterproductive. This could end up nothing but talk (so we will soon submit our proposal
along with the others), but
remember a few months ago when the only talk was to keep NCLB as-is?
Things have changed.
I read
a study showing that Internet users tend not to scroll, but that we will
click. Consequently I have changed the format of the NETwork
from one long scroll to a series of links. Enjoy.
Warm regards,
Dennis
