Schurz Econ Teacher Wins IL Teacher Of The Year
2009-10-26 16:00:00 From the Tribune: A 34 year-old Chicago high school teacher who coaches the debate team was named Illinois teacher of the year tonight. Kevin Rutter, an economics teacher at Carl Schurz High School on the Northwest Side, was chosen by a panel of educators from among 10 finalists, according to the Illinois State Board of Education. "I can't believe I won because I'm kind of young and haven't been in the profession that long," said Rutter, 34, of Chicago. "There were lots of very experienced teachers that I was up against." In her nominating letter, Schurz Principal Mary Ann Folino said Rutter challenges his students with lectures that are relevant to current events and popular culture, using best sellers such...

A Teacher’s Wish List – 2009
2009-08-20 16:34:00 Forget shorter days and cooler nights, this past week many parents took part in an event that signals the end of summer around here: back-to-school shopping. Mothers maneuvered carts through crowded aisles carrying lists provided by their children’s schools. They carefully checked off glue sticks, composition notebooks, and pocket folders. Uniforms and backpacks were tried on and discarded, only to be snatched up a moment later by someone else. My twin sons took half an hour picking the perfect lunchboxes, debating the merits of several superheroes before finally settling on plain, but more *grown-up* selections. I allowed them time to work it out, remembering my own struggles between Nancy Drew and The Bionic Woman. Nancy won several years in a row. As a mom, I enjoy rituals that begin each new school year. Frazzled parents are doing more than searching for specific pencils. They’re supplying children with the tools they need to learn. As a former teacher, I appreciate their ef...
Why Are You A Teacher?
2009-08-19 16:44:00 As an economics teacher, the most frequently asked question by my students is (apart from can I have more time for my homework?) - Why did you become a teacher, when you could have gone to the City and earned lots more money?Well, three pretty good reasons for being a teacher are July, August and December. This August holidays, I am in the US again, so posts may be limited over the next week.When I finished University, I had a pretty good idea what I didn't want to do. Quite high up on the list was working long hours in an office - whatever the monetary renumeration may have been. Therefore, I choose a type of teaching which enables part time work. Basically, in my case I placed a higher value on leisure time than most of my fellow graduates. Later, I felt a certain smug satisfaction as they recounted how they found themselves working a 70 + hours a week in their law firm and having no time to spend all the money they were earning.We always have choices and there are certainly draw...

Teacher Turnover
2009-06-29 22:29:00 Here's three slightly different takes on the teacher turnover report that came out today: Teacher turnover plagues Chicago public schools Tribune On the whole, more than half of the Chicago Public Schools teachers whose records were reviewed left their schools within five years, a figure consistent with the state and the rest of the nation. But in high schools where teachers show particularly low morale, 76 percent of teachers left within that time frame, the study shows. CPS schools lose half of teachers in 5 years Sun Times One "troubling" finding, according to the report, was that CPS teachers who leave low-scoring elementary schools tend to wind up in other low-scoring elementary schools. Teachers who left low-scoring high schools,...

National Teacher Appreciation Week, May 4-8, 2009
2009-05-03 19:35:00 After decades of school improvement efforts centered on restructuring, curriculum standards, accountability, and testing, influential voices in school reform – President Barack Obama, the philanthropist Bill Gates, and national business leaders among them – have reached a novel consensus: The classroom teacher is crucial to learning. Policy elites, it would seem, have finally caught up with folk wisdom of parents and students. (Larry Cuban in EdWeek, 4/29/09)What a nice thought during the week of appreciation for all of our teachers!“Crucial” is really the key word! On a daily basis schools are asking teachers to develop common formative assessments, look at classroom data in teams, improve classroom results in every area, differentiate instruction for the success of all learners, respond and intervene in a systematic way when students in their classroom are not learning, master a plethora of instructional strategies, mentor students, coach students, parent students, and hol...

2008-12-12 13:00:00 I thought no more of old time play acting in the mountain country till on Christmas Eve in 1930 some of the men and boys at Gander [KY] presented for me an old mummers' play. Later two of the men gave me a fairly complete text for the play....All of the contributors were old people, and the play presented at Christmas time in 1930 was almost as new for the young people who belonged to the community as it was for me. Thirty or more years had passed since its last performance, and the play will not be presented again by this community because the two men who knew the text are both dead.--Marie CampbellJournal of American Folklore, Jan-Mar 1938Mummer's plays in Appalachia are direct descendants of the British custom of Christmas masking, or "mumming," which can be traced to the English court as early as the reign of Edward III. Mummers (Merriam Webster's--- "one who goes merrymaking in disguise during festivals") probably got the name from the German word 'Vermummung,' or disguise...

Satguru | The Teacher of Truth | Kamil Murshid
2008-12-07 09:04:00 1.Show us the straight path,The path of those upon whom Thou hast bestowed Thy Grace ..- The Quran 1:6,7Is there somebody who can take me to the Lord?I will go to him, touch his feet and kiss his hands, and serve him faithfully, him, who can take me to the Lord.- a Sikh prayer hymn2.The sanskrit word Satguru (also written as Sadguru) is a very beautiful and powerful term pregnant with meanings and illumination by itself. The original word Satguru literally means true master, can also be interpreted as teacher of truth. It is used to describe a universal concept which is found in almost all spiritual traditions. An equivalent modern western notion of Satguru (pronounced as Saatguru) would be a realized spiritual teacher in reality, not in title or self-proclamation.In Hindu Vedanta Satguru is the Perfect Master. In Tibetan Buddhism, the Perfect Master is the one who have achieved Buddhahood and who is thoroughly conversant with the noble truth of self-realization. In Sikhism its ter...

UPDATE: North Carolina Teacher Talking Down To Students About Mccain Being
2008-11-07 22:18:00 And update to this story: North Carolina Teacher Talks Down To Elementry Students That Support Mccain... DISGUSTING!From the schools website:I was shocked when I saw the clip of an interaction between a Cumberland County Schools teacher and her students as posted on YouTube. While neutral discussion of the political process is appropriate, at no time, particularly with elementary students, should a teacher infuse his/her political views into the discussion. Most disconcerting was the military slant that made its way into this discussion. We are a military community, serving over 15,000 military students and their families. We value the sacrifices, not only of the military parents but also those of their families.We believe that military children are our children, military spouses are many of our employees, and military service men and women are our heroes. We proudly serve our military children and have received national awards for our support of military families.I was particul...
