One Standard at a Time: #VOTENJPENSION (The Real Problem)
http://mrclemenson.blogspot.com/2016/08/votenjpension-real-problem.html
One Standard at a Time. Thoughts from an educational enthusiast. VOTENJPENSION (The Real Problem). If the pension vote makes it to the 2016 ballot it will probably fail. It would be too easy to show an ambulance with someone facing a life threatening situation unable to pass a road needing repairs. The pension is deferred compensation for services rendered, and it is my understanding the government is required to pay. unless they can't. That's the problem. Who decides?

One Standard at a Time: Fieldwork to Work
http://mrclemenson.blogspot.com/2016/09/fieldwork-to-work.html
One Standard at a Time. Thoughts from an educational enthusiast. When I was completing fieldwork I had many opportunities to work in a leadership capacity. The difference between then and now is becoming clearer. Fieldwork provided the opportunity to step in and out of the leadership role at my discretion, but now the expectation is a constant, and that's a good thing. Posted by An Educational Enthusiast.

One Standard at a Time. Thoughts from an educational enthusiast. It's a Quarter 'til Seven. I'm stuck in my ways. It's actually easier to say the real time because of technology, but I find myself reverting to they way I learned it. because it worked, right! Perhaps that's why fuzzy time appealed to me much like the fuzzy clock. Posted by An Educational Enthusiast. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

One Standard at a Time. Thoughts from an educational enthusiast. I like games. All kinds of them. I'm reminded of the quote:. Life is too short for chess (Byron) -. But that is a fault of life, not chess. (anonymous). Hannah (12), Leah (11), and Matthew (3) are my three children. I've been married since I was 27 and I never forget the date. My birthday is 2/12, my wife's 3/12, and our anniversary 4/12. I arrived at work the other day and there was a donation box that said "Help the Needy.".
