One of my favorite blogs to follow is The Tempered Radical.

The author of the blog, Bill Ferriter has a unique perspective on the state of education and instruction. What is intriguing about him is his open forum, reflective, no-holds-barred, sometimes opinionated ideas dedicated to student success and the transformation of teaching into a true profession.

I encourage each one of you to participate in his upcoming event with Rick and Rebecca DuFour. If you have never participated in a live-online discussion, do so. "Raising the Bar and Closing the Gap," will provide an opportunity for you to share your ideas, questions, comments and concerns about helping all students achieve at high levels.

Mark your calendar for May 19 - 21, 2010 to visit Voice Thread and to share your unique experience or ideas.
