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. |
[Author Prev][Author Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Author Index][Thread Index] House education committee hearing on Monday - webcast info
The House Education comittee is holding a hearing on ESEA/NCLB, including the committee discussion draft, this coming Monday, Sept 10, starting at 10:00. There will be many panels of witnesses and it is likely to go on for some time. The list of witnesses has not been posted yet, but I know a number of groups and individuals part of or associated with the Forum on Educational Accountability will testify. I do believe there will be some strong - and accurate - criticism of the law and the discussion draft. The witness list will be on the committee website when it is posted: http://edlabor.house.gov; and on that same website, there is a live webcast button if you want to listen in to any of the hearing.
