Fisch Bowl January 2007

In this post Fisch talks about a radical change in Denver's educational system. Fisch really disagrees with the new changes that are coming about in education. He gives short hightlights of what the book entales for the School district of Denver. He gives brief description and gives his opinion on what they mean to him. He reports that some of the examinations that the School districts may design will restrict some students who may not perform well. He also says that they want to recruit students to become school teachers from the top third of high school students. And with this proposal in mind they want to pay teachers more money but slash their retirement funds.

The post goes on in steps about what steps Denver what to do for the educational system. But Fisch readily disagrees with the things that they propose. He also highlights the fact that for their recuit of these top students most wouldn't what to go into teaching. The main factor beening the salary and also the stress levels, the lack of respect, and also the daily grading and reading of paperwork. He also feels that some think that monetary incentives will help but that would only be possible if teachers took a stand to provide an better education for students. And for some people as he says can only be done with a monetary carrot dangled over their heads. I kind of feel the same way Fisch does about his school system because once I enter into I feel I may have the same kind of opinion about Alabama School System. And the way they go about handling things.

Fisch Bowl September 2007 (Karl Fisch)

Karl Fisch's blog won an honorable for the best blog of 2007. He goes in the subject of some teachers being technological illiterate. Which may sometimes be true because not all teachers now every thing all the time. He makes mention of a teachers blog about the subject of teachers not knowing everything. And he comments that teachers must be able to perform certain technological things in the classroom. He says that the teachers who don't know simple things should probably be ashamed for not teaching children things they need to know.

Fisch Bowl

The Fisch Bowl presentation gave a lot of facts about technology in our society today. It really gave me knowledge of things that I didn't know before watching it. Such things as the education system in Great Britain. And also of how many college educated people in India speak English which was a 100%. This presentation gave me a insight to our future as we go along in this world. And who things will readily progess even after we are not here anymore.
