A teacher at Netroots Nation asks what can be done to improve science education, and to get principles of science as a process back into classes within the NCLB framework.
Gore responded briefly that it is "really harmful that science education… [has] been pushed out of the experience our children have in schools in order to teach to a test."
Pelosi answered by talking specifically about NCLB. Will follow up with both if humanly possible.
Please do elaborate, Josh.
Unfortunately, there wasn't time for much beyond a handshake with the two of them. I'll try other angles.
Yeah, that was was me. I sort of had to pitch a mini fit to get the mic. I had made my question known to the mic fellow but he said it was too vague so he went to someone else who asked and even vaguer one sso then he came back to me.
yay!
Pelosi's comment was basically wait till we get a new president and we will deal with that.
????
But way too many of the freshmen candidates were ....."let's fully fund NCLB" when the real answer should be END IT!
