Tonight, as Israel marks Yom Hazikaron — the annual Memorial Day for Fallen Soldiers and Victims of Terror — please join me in remembering my son, Daniel Pearl, who was murdered by Islamic terrorists in Karachi Pakistan. I will light a candle in his memory as part of the Memorial

Do federal, state, or content standards come with an effectiveness guarantee? User instructions about best instructional method? #edchat

Here is a blockbuster Q! If our job is to best educate all of our children, how do we do that without employing some form of Diversity, Equity, and inclusion which has now been outlawed in education? Shouldn't that as a process be standardized in some way? #EdChat #

What can we learn from the history of the standards movement? For example, initially politicians supported standards, then backed off when the standards were closely aligned with high stakes state tests? Do standards narrow the curriculum, or open the curriculum? #edchat

Let's remember that first-rate educational standards at the national or state level do not guarantee student success. Standards are only one part of the teaching and learning process. Tom Whitby Ashley Eberhart Mark E. Weston Ph.D. #edchat

Do standards actually take the professionalism out of teaching? Have standards been created to "block" teachers from individualizing teaching and the curriculum to meet the needs of their specific students? #edchat Tom Whitby Ashley Eberhart Mark E. Weston Ph.D.
