If you've come here because you're looking at my application to work in your school, I've put together this post with links to a few of my posts that I consider to contain my best thoughts on education. Being push-button publishing, blogging doesn't always produce fully developed thoughts; however, I strive to publish my best reflections using this medium. I hope you enjoy them, and thank you for your interest.
I hope my regular readers will enjoy this updated trip into the archives as well. And now that summer vacation has started, look out, because I've got at least five drafts just screaming to see the light of day.
