change education

i would love to help teachers get an insight into things they can do differently especially by using technology in the classroom in a very substantive way. The other thing I would love to see is the realization that if No Child Left Behind is truly going to work, then all students must take the same standardized exams in all 50 states. However, that does not mean that teachers must teach the same way. I trust teachers to know what works best and to seek out good formulas that work with their students. yes, I know that there are the minority of those who don’t do much and want it easy, but there are a good number who are hard working, creative individuals who I trust as professionals to seek out the best methods and practices to use in their classrooms. And yes, I would like to see educators treated as professionals.
