Anyone who has ever grown fruit trees knows that you HAVE to prune branches that have borne fruit several years in a row to make new growth available that will produce at higher levels than tired old branches...
The same is with the reform movement...It appears that a small branch budding out from the fiasco of corporate driven reform may take American education up to the next level of learning... It just poked out its head this year, and is causing a stir among those in the top of the corporate movement who are frustrated their investments have gone sour....
It looks promising, but with that we should also take note that when Common Core was rolled out, it too looked promising.... And still would, if it hadn't been hijacked by others with not-so-hot agendas.....
But IF handled right, and IF teachers are given the entire responsibility of driving the educational process, this new technological advancement could indeed revolutionize the results of educational success......
It is called "individualized learning"....
