					<description><![CDATA[One of the coaches in my district approached me last week and asked if I had a moment to talk about a few students. Each of them had come pretty close to passing my class but had fallen short largely due to things entirely within their control &#8211; not turning in study guides for easy &#8230; <a href="https://bluecerealeducation.com/blog/accountability-vs-opportunity/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">Accountability vs. Opportunity</span></a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Like many people, I’ve been trying my hand at freelancing here and there for extra income over the past few years. In my case, it’s nothing glorious – just writing (or rewriting) web content explaining the benefits of regular eye exams, how a reverse mortgage works, or where Eddie Murphy’s net worth ranks him compared &#8230; <a href="https://bluecerealeducation.com/blog/please-correct-highlighted-sections/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">Please Correct The Highlighted Sections</span></a>]]></description>

Now I&#8217;ll skillfully jump back and lay the foundation for such an outrageous claim and hope it’s enough to keep you reading until we reach it again further on. Four-Point Scale or Back Hoe?

					<description><![CDATA[I hear repeatedly from otherwise respected voices that it really shouldn't matter WHEN students do the assigned reading, master the required skill, absorb the expected content, as long as they GET it some day in their own special time and way - my shoulders tighten and my stomach hurts. I appreciate the theory, but education reformers and ideologists aren't known for being bound by the same reality as the rest of us.

If reforms were horses, then students would ride... and teachers would walk behind them in the parade.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In a few days, I'll be entering final grades for this semester. I hate it. I try to be firm - you get what you get – but in reality I’ll end up browsing the final scores of each class, noting especially which students ended up a few points away from a different letter grade one way or the other. 

What exactly am I attempting to measure here? Is it how much they've done? How far they've come?  How well they've met state curriculum expectations? What they can DO decently in terms of social studies skills? Effort? Cooperation? Whether or not they're a huge pain in the @**? What am I measuring each time I give one of these 'grades'? ]]></description>
