Kansas Students Walk Out on Online, Personalized Learning
#2
such a nightmare. I feel really really awful for students who won't feel empowered by their education but instead feel trapped by it.

I am highly bothered by this quote
“Change rarely comes without some bumps in the road,” said Gordon Mohn, McPherson’s superintendent of schools. He added, “Students are becoming self-directed learners and are demonstrating greater ownership of their learning activities.”

Self-direction. Self. Self. Let's define "self" - and then define "directed" and this program is the opposite of what *actual* self-directed learning is! Ownership? They walked out. That's owning it!
