What this would do, while matching up education to the rest of the world’s calendars, is really mess up summer camps, beach houses, and the communities and economies that depend on seasonal business, at least until they, too, adapt to a changing schedule. I think this is probably the biggest hurdle in places like NJ, that have active “shoreline” based communities with significant inflow of summer residents from all over.
The Bottom line issue is that education, from the curriculum to the calendar, has been created in a “one size fits all” framework that does little to respond to the special needs of students, whether that’s gifted students, students in need of specialized education, or ESL.
Ok- you guys have given me the kick in the tush I need. Anyone interested in participating in a new, open format podcast on education, called “Partners in Education” – bringing educators and parents together to talk and learn from each others perspectives, please email me at ldpodcast@gmail.com. We’ll get a list together and try a new service called talkshoe, that can let people participate in a podcast like a call in radio show- It’s cool!

Dear Elena and the comments people have put in.

The Toronto Sun unfortunately is not alone. The NY Times and Baltimore Sun have also published reviews in advance of the requested date. This is a problem.
How will publishers deal with it in the future? Exclude cheaters from the inner circle.
This I think is another example of the open information issue. Buglers break into a bank and can\'t open the safe so they Google for the information. Terrorists can use the map information (amongst the wealth that is on the web) to plan their dirty deads.
Do we lock it all down? Restrict access to just what you need to know? That doesn\'t sound like a very interesting world to me. It smacks of the "dark ages".
I prefer openness and responsible, respectful use of information. An idealist, yes." ); document.write( " " ); document.write( "
http://tertiary-education.blogspot.com/2007/07/tertiary-education-whose-responsibility.htmlI have a client who takes great pride - as they should - in their own efforts to employ those that others normally do not, in their misguided notions of what "high standards for job candidates" should be. I must say that it is extremely rewarding for me working with them as their coach, and I in turn am quite proud to say I am affiliated with them.We lift each other up when we drill down into our humanity." ); document.write( " " ); document.write( "

Gadgets can be good used to balance the capabilities with the other cooking options. In my posting earlier this week, I mentioned serving it hot. With most stoves, you have four places for pans. The rice cooker serves as a nice alternative to use of the cooking spots. Of course we\'ll need to balance the counter space taking up by the gadgets with "working space" but that is part of the art of working in the kitchen.
My brother recently found out he needs a gluten free diet too. Thanks for that link. I am sure the recipes will help him. And me too, for when he visits I\'ll be able to have something prepared." ); document.write( " " ); document.write( "
