I'm not getting into this debate over this situation.

Recently I had a discussion with a professional in our State Education Department and shared my feelings of training of new teachers and its lacking realism. As you said anthony and I said to her. Education of theoretical practice is important but reality application of theory to the real process of teaching is not happening. There is limited transfer of knowledge to its application in the real world.

There we agree.

Now, I wish to share a concern I have about all these confrontations that have been cropping up recently. I purposefully do not participate to egg it on any further. I respect people have their differences of opinion and let it go. Sometimes it's better to agree to disagree and walk away.

I wonder what new members think of these postings?

What is triggering everyone to attack one another?

I don't think a full moon lasts 6 weeks. I also don't get the venting that keeps centering on a few individuals.

All I can see with regards to me, it makes me uncomfortable and careful to what I respond to and choose to read.

Just sharing my personal feelings and perspective - NO OFFENSE MEANT TO ANYONE.
