I think we are on the same page. My point wasn't that they shouldn't or should, its that they do. As you note it has been socialized into them. The problem is systematic, not something any one educator can fix. Bad teachers, and b

I’m pretty convinced parent comment is parody. Sadly that’s a position I’m holding just for my own sanity This is what is meant by the “arrogance”. Peoples opinions are not accepted as inherently credible. The bad faith and the intellectua

“People have written books” Is not a response to “why do you hold this opinion” It strikes me as pretty much straight up satire to use as your primary source the writings of a guy with degrees from Harvard and works for the Hoover instituti

I think this is misleading. There simply are not enough teachers in the us, largely because in a relative sense the pay is low. It’s easy to point the finger at unions- mostly because it is a narrative that has been pushed hard for years. T

If one wants to have a conversation about privilege and childhood education it is useful to look beyond labels for how one teaches and actually look at how schools change with social class. Jean Anyon's work is really the baseline[0] a
