That's disappointing. A song that embodies inclusion gets edited. : The World's Fair

  • the version released on iTunes had completely edited out every element of the deaf choir's performance. Which is a shame really - because I thought it was actually the best part of the song. Now it sounds like a decent but otherwise mundane version of the song.
  • Of course, this begs the larger question. Why would Twentieth Century Fox (the ones who produce the television show as well as release the music for purchase) feel like the parts with the deaf choir would not merit a listen? It's puzzling really - is the music buying public that averse to this sort of thing?

How Researchers Can Silence Teachers’ Voices « Larry Cuban on School Reform and Classroom Practice

  • Researchers, however, publish their studies and teachers like Mrs. O seldom tell their side of the story. Yet teachers’ perceptions of change have to be respected and voiced because they have indeed altered their practices incrementally and as any practitioners (lawyers, doctors, accountants) will tell you, that is very hard to do. How to honor teachers’ incremental changes while pointing out few shifts in fundamental patterns of teaching is the dilemma with which I have wrestled in researching high-tech use in schools.
