Should we pull teachers out of the education process?


Kind of fired up.  Besides my Web EDU class, I’m also taking a class about working with at-risk kids.  Some of the criticisms of the depersonalization of education was right on the mark.  I think that the prevailing sentiment of running schools like businesses is dangerous.  I’m not sure that businesses are heading in the right direction either.  I think that our society is trying to move toward taking the teachers out of teaching.  This article has some interesting insights on this idea. http://www.mlive.com/opinion/grand-rapids/index.ssf/2010/04/guest_column_technology_cant_r.html
