    I discount experience when it is not related to what the job requires. PE teachers have to know how to count to keep score. But 15 years experience doing that doesn't mean they are ready to teach Calculus. You need a base knowledge that requires experience directly related or classroom...

    You are such a *******. There is clearly a difference between having an angry kid in class and how you handle the kid in class versus working with kids on strategies to deal and cope with anger issues.

    Because most parents don't want someone trying a new role on their kid. Oh, your kid has anger issues, well this elementary PE teacher of 15 years certainly knows all the best approaches to handle that issue. No thank you ... give me someone that has been appropriately trained in helping a kid...

    The person that hit "Winner" on your post already pointed out the alternative pathway for this situation when the experience is applicable to what they want to teach. There are other programs for situations when the experience isn't applicable, which makes sense also.

    Wind Energy in Iowa...Your Thoughts

    Is wind energy a hoax? As in, they put up all these windmills, but they don't actually produce any energy? I'm going to say, no, it isn't a hoax.

    "Education" websites use in elementary schools

    That validates exactly what Seesaw says on their website, and as I said before, is a business model used by hundreds of companies.

    "Education" websites use in elementary schools

    They sell subscriptions to the service, both individually to teachers and to the school as a whole. They offer a free version with the hope that people that like the service upgrade to a paid version. Similar to the business model of hundreds of companies. EDIT: Their pricing model is...

    Chart of 2017-2018 playing time

    Could you, by chance, create a small multiple chart? Or just do lines for each player on a single chart instead of the area chart? I think it is tougher to see trends because the only player with a consistent base to measure against is the bottom player. Just my opinion.

    Stupid logo hate thread

    The "marketing people" do not work in the business school, so it clearly shouldn't be a reflection of the business school. And even at universities with "true" business schools, the administration very seldom gets input from their experts that research and teach the subject matter.
