Insights Into Education Podcast

American education is caught at a cross roads. While there is no shortage of discussion about how to educate children moving forward, much either lacks historic insight into the fundamental building blocks that got us here, or is based by policies funded and dictated by private interests. In Insights Into Education Dan and Ed informally discuss the concerns of parents and teachers about the state of American education. They focus on what they have collectively learned in almost 100 years of experiences as teachers and administrators. They believe education must be focused on each individual child. They share a wealth of knowledge about experiential education. As parents, and having dealt with parents' concerns on many levels, they share insights into what parents need from teachers and the education system.

Activism In Education: Dan and Ed expose their deepest concerns about teacher apathy and lack of professional responsibility. The discussion is vibrant and opinionated. As they discuss their insights into the damage done to public education they share the concerns of many highly competent professionals. Some of the questions that drive this podcast: The information is out there, why has it been ignored? Have you read Diane Ravitch’s books? Do non-professionals follow her blogs? Why support the Badass Teachers Association? Do teachers who are not professional recognize and support leaders acting to save public education?  Have teachers’ unions led the fight to correct lies told to destroy teacher credibility and public schools?
