Read several more reports for my Systems paper that came out of the Leadership class. I did a mind map on this one:
Benchmarking for Success: Ensuring U.S. Students Receive a World-Class Education. (2008). Washington,DC: National Governors Association.
I have also been reading articles by Gloria Ladson-Billings which is my assignment to research in the Leadership KA:
Ladson-Billings, G. (1998). Teaching in dangerous times: Culturally relevant approaches to teacher assessment. The Journal of Negro Education, 67(3), 255.
Ladson-Billings, G. (2006). From the Achievement Gap to the Education Debt: Understanding Achievement in U.S. Schools. Educational Researcher, 35(7), 3.
Ladson-Billings, G. (2007). Pushing Past the Achievement Gap: An Essay on the Language of Deficit. The Journal of Negro Education, 76(3), 316.
Ladson-Billings, G. (1997). It doesn't add up: African American students' mathematics achievement. Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 28, 697-708.
I watched a few videos online of Ms. Ladson-Billings speaking and also looked up bios on her.
She refers to teacher standards set by the the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards. So I downloaded from their website the piece called "What Teachers Should Know and Be Able to Do". I plan to read that also.
Haven't finished the reading, but will do mind maps soon on these.
