Persistent Pondering http://persistentpondering.posterous.com Where do social action, art, music, technology, media, pop culture, and most importantly, student needs intersect? posterous.com Wed, 17 Aug 2011 19:52:00 -0700 Changing Education Paradigms http://persistentpondering.posterous.com/changing-education-paradigms http://persistentpondering.posterous.com/changing-education-paradigms

So what have you all been doing during this week of professional development and teacher preparation? Well, I have to say this has been the best week of PD yet. It's probably because it's all about educational reform, why it's necessary, and what needs to change. 

North Dallas High School has been awarded the TTIPS grant to transform the campus. This is a time for impact. This is a time to make a difference. This is a time where empowered educators with vision and discipline can be catalysts to reform education.

What a great time it is indeed. It's time to turn talk into action!
