heza says Nov 11, 2009 05:16PM I've heard of schools like this...in the US even. I'd love to teach at one to see what it's like.
EdVentures says Nov 11, 2009 05:16PM I wonder how similar it is to the Science Leadership Academy in Philly?
bknittle Nov 11, 2009 05:21PM Some day (when I am rich) i would love to start a school based on brain & learning research.
dawne Nov 11, 2009 05:22PM What a great review of teenage brain development. Every teacher or parent with teenagers should read this!
n2teaching says Nov 11, 2009 05:22PM Yes, this is what we talk about when discussion appropriate evaluations. I can go with it.
GingerLewman says Nov 11, 2009 05:28PM Yes! This is what we're shooting for at TPLC. A little tough 5-8, but we're getting there.
heza says Nov 11, 2009 07:45PM I have always thought it would be great to pick my favorite teachers I've encountered in my professional life and start a school with them.
bknittle Nov 11, 2009 11:07PM heza: i too have thought the same thing. I have met some terrific, dedicated, inspirational educators in my time.
