NPR talks about education

On my way to work this morning, I heard an NPR report on the sad state of teacher certification programs. Well, it might not have been entirely about that...but that's what I heard. The part that made me say "Amen!" was when they were talking to an "effective" teacher in rural North Carolina. I wanted to quote him perfectly, but NPR does not have a transcript of the interview yet. He said something along the lines of, "When visitors walk into my class, they might see chaos, but I call that engagement." How true it is!
