Teacher 4, #1
Kim Cofino blogged about the ways of sharing ideas in the world of education. She talked about how higher-ended schools should help lower functioning schools, and show them new ways of doing things. I commented that I can't have a strong opinion because I don't deal with those types of things yet. I shared that I feel it's important for me to familiarize myself with things like that to help myself and others in the future.

Kim Cofino wrote a blog post about a conference/seminar that she attended. She wrote 5 major points that she feels were most important from the seminar. Mrs. Cofino realizes that teacher/parent communication is of the up-most importance, and that without it, no new ideas will prosper.
Mrs. Cofino also talks about the importance of creating an environment where everyone is comfortable with taking risks and making risky decisions. This will be done with the thought that one may fail.
Mrs. Cofino also talks about how we should all know that we aren't going to win everyone over with our new and risky ideas. The older people aren't going to be as wanting as we are to develop new things.
