I heard a lot of feedback from other students in our classroom that did not like Dr. Van Antwerp's presentation because it was "common sense" information that she gave. However, I feel that this common sense is what America's new teachers do not have enough of, and therefore lack a strong sense of. I'm particularly happy that you pointed out the part about "the kids." It seems many people are motivated to work for "the kids," but actually may have underlying hidden motives that may be supported by "the kids" in actuality. As I said, I'm glad you enjoyed it as I did, or at least it seems that you did, and I hope you were as inspired as I was to start teaching!
