Adolescent Literacy chp. 1 reflection

1) Do I agree with this chapter? Of course, however, simply writing about it in a book helps no one! Now, writing about it and doing something about it makes a difference.

2) Who doesn't already know that education needs to move into the 21st century, but tell me how to do that. Reaching students like Collin is every teacher's dream, but how, when, where, with what? Between reveiwing for CATS, in the library with a classroom already taking place, and with the 25 state-of-the-art computers in ....your classroom??

3) Should the test not reflect what the students are learning and need to learn in the 21st century? Does the test not change with the times?

4) I don't need a chapter to tell me the downfalls of our education system today, I need a chapter that promises change, and points me in the right direction to make those changes.
