Now you're talking, MPS. Let's see MPS get back to what it once was, like back in the 90's and 80's. It's a tall order since you've slipped so far. Technology is important, but corraling students toward marketable careers is also still important. Individualized learning done correctly is a goal worth pursuing. There still needs to be an end, however, to justify the means.
Will be watching with interest.
