The quote from the article asking  "do we need to teach all the time, given that so many online teaching resources are already available?". I understand the intent behind this, such as teaching does not need to be memorizing facts outside of a book and reciting, however is this what parents or other community members are thinking? Do they believe that school or teachers can be replaced by online resources? Or is it a deeper thought of the students can learn the basics through online and we as teachers are the facilitators of the deeper discoveries and connections?

I believe strongly that the What? How? and Where? of education for students needs to be individualized.  We have one educational mold for students to fit in, and if they don't fit, we label them as "disabled" when in fact the system itself is "disabled."  We have created round holes in which we expect students to fit.  If they are round pegs, they will be successful.  If they are cubes or prisms, then we chisel at them until we can squeeze into the holes.  However, they never really fit right.  We are missing out on their special gifts and abilities, because we are focused on making them into a round peg.

The article broke it down tot he basics of how we as envision education, and presents the current situation as an opportunity to grow and evolve to be better educators and guides to the kiddos...seems as thought TB should be quite able to weave the current mission into practice that incorporates what the author proposes...more student driven, choice based challenges.  We likely really need to work even more with parents to establish buy in so it doesn't overwhelm their static ideas of education.

Learning can and does take place anywhere. I agree with that. I think we have always know this. We all knew someone who was "street smart" but not "book smart" or vice versa, "book smart" but not "street smart." Or we say some people are "good with their hands," which is a nice way of saying, they're not really all that "book smart" or educated.

RAPPORT, I would have liked to have met the students and built rapport with them and developed a can do attitude, that the only thing stopping them is themselves. I will work hard to get that trust but I think it is so much easier in person but we will see, I'm up for the challenge.

We have tried different practices by giving student choice and various other "New Learning Opportunities." Our schools  scores have slipped a bit. Makes me want to ask why have they slipped are we achieving academic success or are we making the students feel good. Well, they may feel good here but when they move to another school and are rated behind, how is our success measured then? As a failure or success?

This paper is an opinion and I take it has that. I would agree with this if I were a teacher in high school. Under the "What" I just can't seeing 10 year old's and below not being taught something because they are not interested. I believe her in an elementary setting we should be focused on providing quality instruction with the focus being on reading, writing and math. If we give the students the tools and confidence that they can succeed then when they leave our schools to continue their education they will be successful. Upon arriving to high school they will have the academic success that we have provided and the confidence, understanding that the choices they make will lead to success instead of hating school they will love school. If students are allowed to pick what they like and discard what may be a challenge. They might miss out on something that could have been there love. I have had many students have told  me that they are engaged and love math because I made it fun.

The "Where," paragraph. I don't think you get the same learning on computers that you do face to face. I disliked it in college and I think many people do. Why? because of the personal interaction the questioning and answering, the debating which can lead to so much learning. On web ex, you have to wait to respond, in the classroom you get to see those hands shoot up or see a puzzled look. I think kids need to learn in school.
