BELIEVE
Learning involves many aspects but the one that was and still is the most influential to me is that of belief. When others entrust me with their faith, I often rise to their expectations. When my parents, friends, and teachers believe in me, I believe in myself. This is a wonderful ability that we each have to give one to another.

Posted November 7th, 2007 by lbsasserI am a junior at East Carolina University and I'm in the education program. For one of my classes we are currently reading the Teacher Education Quarterly. Throughout the book it continues to discuss NCLB and all the criticism the Bush administration is getting. In my experience with education through observing different elementary classrooms, I have noticed the different abilities of all the kids. There is no way all children will be proficient in reading and math by 2014! It's just not possible because all children are required to take the test and succeed. What about the kids with disabilities? How will they ever pass these standardized test? If there are any other opinions about NCLB, I would love to hear them.
