Locating the Essays
The essays discuss a variety of educational issues. There are several options available for browsing the essays. The calendar to the left allows to read the essays posted this month, by date. Recent posts provides direct links to the most recent articles. The archive links group older posts by month. Categories sort the essays by topic; articles may appear in multiple category listings, as appropriate.

Resource Links
The listing in the column on the right provides links to important web sites related to the essays. The links are presented by general category. The lists will be expanded over time, as new important resources are referenced in the articles. However, the lists will be intentionally kept short, as there are painfully few web sites available that are of high enough quality to meet my rigorous standards for recommendation. We have enough “noise” cluttering our lives and our profession, wasting our valuable time—I won’t add to it by pointing you toward resources that are of no or very limited value.
