Interversity Quotes"I think it's time to ask the Standardistos: Where's the test for compassion? For honesty? For curiosity? For moral commitment? Until they can answer, let's tell them to shut up." —Susan Ohanian (One Size Fits Few: The Folly of Educational Standards) Interversity ProjectsEchoes of Orwell:The purpose of this webforum is to promote a lively discussion among students and faculty alike about George Orwell's 1984 and the parallels or echoes found in today's society. |

Burlington Free Press NAEP scores positive banner headline front page. I didn't buy the paper--just looked at the headline. Online I see that something to the effect of "need for improvement" comes at end of first paragraph. Rutland Herald Front-page headline "Vermont Students Shine on National Math Tests" again "need for improvement" at end of first paragraph. I couldn't find any mention in either Troy (NY) Record or Albany Times Union NY Times treated it as a national story, with NY not getting mentioned until 6th paragraph. NY Post, which has ongoing stories about teacher stupidity and sexcapades, didn't run it. Their front-page headlines are: Hilary Plays Viagara Hard Ball Deli-Massacre Suspect is Back Sidenote: The NY Board of Ed has a running banner ad online, soliciting people to become NY City teachers. Why they would give a dime to the NY Post, I can't fathom. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the ARN-L list, send command SIGNOFF ARN-L to LISTSERV@LISTS.CUA.EDU.
