[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another barrier to great teaching is that often, great teachers have great educations. So much of content is being watered down over the last 20 years to make way for skill and drill and test prep, and reading has overshadowed writing to such a strong degree that many teachers really struggle to write. I fear for my kids who are being taught by people who, as kids, were spending as much time as mine do on PARCC prep when they could have been reading actual literature, and writing essays that only got seen by a paid test grader, instead of by their teacher, who gave feedback on multiple drafts. [/quote] This is one of the reasons why families move to private schools and why teachers opt for lower salary in private schools...[/quote]
