I was recently a
guest blogger for eduwonkette. She’s pushing up against my guideline of
having a Technorati authority of less than 100, so I figure now is as good a
time as any to name her as the next recipient of the crimson
megaphone. For those of you who are unfamiliar with her, eduwonkette is the
pseudonym of an anonymous professor somewhere. I don’t know much about her other
than that she’s super fun to read because of her willingness to inject levity
and attitude into her blogging. This, of course, makes her blog one that
deserves a bigger audience (DABA). You’ll also see
that she often sparks fascinating discussions in her comment areas. If you’re
looking for a lighthearted, and yet somehow still serious, look at major policy
issues in education, eduwonkette’s a great bet.
Here are a few posts to get you started (see also her posts before she moved to
Education Week):
- It’s
a Small World After All - Social
Studies, Science, and NCLB - My
Value-Added Bucket List - Americans’
Attitudes on Inequality: A Teacher’s Dilemma - Professors
Strike Back? - The
NYC Teacher Experiment Revisited - Do
Schools Matter?
Happy reading!
