Each morning, Mebane Rash will be posting an aggregation of national, state, and local ed news at 8am. On Facebook and here, we’ll let you know what’s of most interest.
As we head into the 2015-16 legislative session, this video caught my attention this morning: How to make the case for education reform. It was posted on EdNext. The video makes three points regarding education reform: do what’s right, for the students, and make your argument in 7 seconds or less. After more than 20 years observing NC politics, I know the differences come in the definition of what is right, but both sides would benefit from these principles guiding the debate.
