"Let us all take more responsibility, not only for ourselves and our families but for our communities and our country." President William J. Clinton
"When I think about the world I would like to leave to my daughter and the grandchildren I hope to have, it is a world that moves away from unequal, unstable, unsustainable interdependence to integrated communities - locally, nationally and globally - that share the characteristics of all successful communities." President William J. Clinton
"The failure to adequately prepare teachers who can educate all children has been identified as evidence of pedagogical, instructional and conceptual problems in teacher preparation." Aisha Ray, Ph.D.
"Early childhood teacher education programs may through instructional practices, pedagogy and curricula reward and privilege the developmental and educational needs of certain groups of children over others thereby reproducing inequality." Aisha Ray, Ph.D.
What do you think she meant when she says there is inequality in education? I have my understanding and would like to hear what yours are.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Pres. Clinton's quote. We really do need to take more responsibility. When I was a child, it was okay for other adults to correct my behavior if I was doing wrong. Now, parents are offended if someone else steps in.
ReplyDeleteRegarding our communities, it is sad to see people walking around stepping over trash and/or creating more trash, then complaining about the mess. When did we stop caring about where we live? It's sad.
I like both of President Clinton's quotes, in the firts its like I always say and believe, "it takes a tribe to raise a child", if we are all constantly aware of the actions and repremend (not saying to spank with words at an early age is enough) at the moment I believe we will be better off, than letting the child do what they please because you are not the parent.
