I often feel the same, so to show I agree, I'm here to contribute. I agree that the ivory tower is lost when it comes to daily practitioners. So much of my master's in education (I'm sorry to say) was too concerned with the fringes of the business (public relations, statistical research, and philosophical history) then the actual subject of what a "master of education" should be. Yeah, I wrote a paper on the philosophy of Robert Owen. How much time did we spend speaking on how to increase literacy in the urban classroom?--very little. Good post. So, you don't feel that you are talking to a wall; I'm officially adding you to my RSS feed. Keep blogging!
