Public education reformation, or, Public’s reformation of education? Both!


Expect this innovation to require everyone, including new communications technologies. Public education has never had the capacity to engage 100% of the children in a 13-year journey to becoming effective citizens. Why would the public still expect this result without changing the capacity of the process? Dropouts attribute being behind in reading and writing a major cause for their disengagement. Brain development science tells the public that Early Reading Skills are a first-things-first priority. Complete neighborhood level giving of the gift of early literacy to age 3-6 children will reform K- 3 education. 80% of USA citizens can agree on this focus.


(PRWEB) July 22, 2005 -- A total quality definition of excellence encourages education to start 100% right to effectively finish 100% right. The process for the most at-risk child is long and deflecting, requiring the right gift at the start, to have a chance. Public education’s reformation requires the public effort be in agreement at most basic levels. It is as much a new capacity building process, as it is a required turnaround. It is complicated when viewed over a 13-year process and the “capacity build” is ultimately complicated by opinions of what really is first-things-first. Steven Covey has a whole book about getting this right, to be considered effective.Here is a partial list of positive thoughts, selected from the expert section of the Ultimate Character Development Business Plan; http://ulticharnetwork.blogspot.com/

·Responsibility is the weight of freedom of speech – combinations

·Everyone is part of the solution when NCLB really means 100%-- combinations

·Quality, productivity, lower costs, capture the market -- W. Edward Deming

·Respect for demonstrated past achievements--combinations

·Efforts need a focal point, and then many effective citizens --Eric Schaps

·100-words to start is an elevator pitch--Thomas Wolfgram
