Thanks for posting but this is only for reporters.
ReplyDeleteUm, LisaWalker,
ReplyDelete"EWA isn't just for reporters. We assist writers for education organizations, public information officers, education policy-makers, journalism students, and anyone else interested in the quality of education reporting."
Most of Mike's readers fall in at least one of these categories. Hate to interrupt a sniff in mid-breath, but really....
Uh oh. I didn't mean to start anything here. Just letting my readers know what you ed writers are talking about these days. Even if they don't attend, many will be interested.
ReplyDeleteFeel free to delete my comment--it's overly snarky.
ReplyDeleteI've been bitten by the Oinky flu, and my crankiness is several notches abouve my usual crabbiness. (Unlike wall street bankers and pro hockey players, I have no inside track to the H1N1 vaccine.)
I apologize, Ms. Walker, for being rude.
Online study groups have a very interesting methodology employed which makes learning fun and also a more interactive activity. These study guides were one such deal for me.
