Educational Issue: NCLB and Charter Schools

I enjoyed the organization of the teaching and presentation of this educational issue. The presenters did a nice run-through of the background information of NCLB and Charter Schools, with a good use of resources, like the GW and Charter School videos, internet resources, and giving us the opportunity to try the test. The presenters all seemed really knowledgeable about NCLB and especially the problems associated with it and its "results," and Charter Schools as well. With Charter Schools, one of the aspects of your presentation that I found most useful was to examine the advantages and disadvantages. It was cool to be able to generate ideas for our ideal Charter School, yeah! The clip at the end was interesting after discussing and creating Charter Schools, because we could see how successful they can be, and areas where they are lacking, like in funds and space.
