THANK YOU VERY MUCH. IF I COULD ASK YOU TO TAKE YOUR SEATS, PLEASE. THAT WAS A WONDERFUL PANEL AND... |
| 00:04:06 |
|
I WANT TO START OFF BY TALKING ABOUT THE ROLE GOVERNMENT CAN PLAY. I'LL START WITH YOU, JOHN, IF I... |
| 00:04:20 |
|
THE FIRST PANEL WAS TERRIFIC. ANY WAY YOU CUT THE DATA, TRYING TO FOCUS ON THIS PROBLEM WITH RESPECT... |
| 00:06:23 |
|
I THINK, IT'S IMPORTANT TO BE AS SPECIFIC AS WE CAN ABOUT THE ROLE OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. THE... |
| 00:08:32 |
|
BILL GATES IS CLAPPING FOR YOU. |
| 00:08:36 |
|
I'LL TALK TO HIM LATER. |
| 00:08:38 |
|
TOMMY, SPEAKING OF DATA, NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND WAS SUPPOSED TO GIVE US A WEALTH OF DATA. DOES IT WORK?... |
| 00:08:48 |
|
MIXED RESULTS. NOT THAT MARGARET HASN'T TRIED AND HAS DEFINITELY IMPROVED THE OPERATIONS CONSIDERABLY... |
| 00:11:48 |
|
THE FIFTH ONE, WHICH IS MINE, WHICH IS ALWAYS CONTROVERSIAL, YOU HAVE TO GO TO AS MANY CHOICE PROPOSITIONS... |
| 00:12:30 |
|
WE'RE GOING TO GET BKK TO EAEA OF F TH POIOINTS YOU MADE. LET ME G TO BYRON. WHEN WE L LKEKED AT THEDATA,... |
| 00:12:44 |
|
WELL, McKENZIE D DID A STUDY LAST YEAR OF THE BEST PERFORMING SCHOOLS IN THE WORLD. TH SYSTEMS THAT... |
| 00:14:09 |
|
BYRON, YOU SAY THAT TEACHER AND RESOURCES IS THE MOST IMPORTANT SINGLE THING, WHAT ABOUT MERIT PAY,... |
| 00:14:22 |
|
I THINK THAT IS THE QUESTION. THE FUNDMENTAL QUESTION HERE IS REALLY, HOW DO WE MAKE TEACHING A GREAT... |
| 00:17:33 |
|
LET ME ASK YOU, WHAT YOU THINK THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTORS ARE THAT WE NEED TO REFORM. |
| 00:17:39 |
|
YES, I THINK IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO HEAR ALL THESE ASPECTS OF THIS ISSUE, I COMMEND YOU FOR DOING... |
| 00:21:02 |
|
YOU WERE NODDING ON EMBRACEING ACCOUNTABILITY AND STANDARDS. YOU WANT TO BUILD ON THAT? |
| 00:21:08 |
|
I THINK JANET IS EXACTLY RIGHT. I THINK WE NEED TO LOOK AT WHO IS PERFORMING, WHO IS NOT. WE'RE A... |
| 00:23:00 |
|
ALL RIGHT. I THINK THAT WE'RE ON A VERY INTERESTING TOPIC HERE. IF YOU LOOK AT PUBLIC EDUCATION AND... |
| 00:25:40 |
|
THE MANUFACTURERS HAVE TO COMPETE IN THE MARKET AND SOMEBODY WILL GO ACROSS TOWN IF THEY ARE NOT COMPETING.... |
| 00:26:05 |
|
WELL, ONE THING I SAY ABOUT THE GREAT CHARTER SCHOOLS THAT HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL IS THAT BACK TO THE... |
| 00:27:31 |
|
I HAVE THREE QUICK POINTS BASED UPON THE DISCUSSION HAS COME UP WITH. FIRST OFF, WHEN WE SET UP THE... |
| 00:29:48 |
|
THERE WAS A POLITICAL CONSENSUS THAT FORMED A COUPLE YEARS AGO BEHIND THE NOTION. THAT SEEMED TO HAVE... |
| 00:30:11 |
|
WELL, I THINK IT GOES TO THE POINT OF THE PANEL BEHIND US, WHICH IS, WE ARE HERE FEELING URGENT ABOUT... |
| 00:33:12 |
|
IT'S SUCH AN INTERESTING DILEMMA. EVERYBODY KNOWS FOOTBALL SEASON IS UNDERWAY AND IF THEY ARE WINNING... |
| 00:35:02 |
|
JANET. |
| 00:35:04 |
|
I THINK JOHN MAKE AS GOOD POINT. WE NEED TO CREATE A SENSE OF URGENCY. IF SOME OF THE DEMOGRAPHICS... |
| 00:37:28 |
|
WHAT'S THE WORLD OF BUSINESS IN HELPING PUSH THE ACCOUNTABILITY AGENDA AND WHAT HAVE YOU SEEN IN THE... |
| 00:37:37 |
|
THERE'S A NUMBER OF ROLES TO PLAY. BUT, I WANTED TO ADD SOMETHING TO THIS ABOUT WHAT IT'S GOING TO... |
| 00:39:22 |
|
WE HAVE VERY PUBLIC DATA AND EVERYBODY CAN SEE IT JUST LIKE THE COACHES RANKING OF FOOTBALL TEAM OR... |
| 00:39:47 |
|
I THINK JOEL RAISED A POINT OF NATIONAL STANDARDS AND OUR WORK WITH THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. YOU... |
| 00:41:25 |
|
THAT'S WHAT I WAS SAYING EARLIER. WE NEED TO PULL IT OUT AND GET IT IN REALTIME. IT'S AN INTERESTING... |
| 00:41:41 |
|
HOW DO WE GET IT IN REALTIME? IT CAN'T BE THAT HARD. |
| 00:41:48 |
|
THAT'S WHAT I SAID. I PULLED NATE OUT OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND FUND IT AND THEN THAT WOULD BE... |
| 00:44:46 |
|
GOVERN THOMPSON? |
| 00:44:49 |
|
I AGREE WITH THE NECESSITY OF DATA. THERE'S ONE OTHER FACTOR THAT'S JUST AS IMPORTANT THAT'S BEEN... |
| 00:47:06 |
|
IT'S HARDER TO HAVE LEADERSHIP, IT WOULD SEEM, IF YOU DON'T HAVE A SCORE BOARD IN BRIGHT LIGHT THAT... |
| 00:47:15 |
|
THERE ARE OTHER PLACES WE CAN LOOK FOR SUPPORT. I AGREE WITH LEADERSHIP AS WITH DATA. YOU ASKED WHAT... |
| 00:49:20 |
|
THAT IS UNDER UTILIZED AT A TOOL TO HELP. IT DOES SEVERAL THINGS. IT CAN PERSONALIZE EDUCATION. IT'S... |
| 00:51:07 |
|
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT TECHNOLOGY WILL ALLOW ACCOUNTABILITY AND STANDARDS TO BE MORE VISIBLE AND TRANSPARENT... |
| 00:52:11 |
|
JUST SHOUT IT OUT. YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE MICROPHONE. WE DON'T WANT SPEECHES. GO AHEAD,... |
| 00:52:31 |
|
-- THE ROLE JASON AND I WERE ASKED TO PLAY AS A PEOPLE'S MODERATOR. WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO TALK... |
| 00:53:46 |
|
OKAY, SO WE HAVE THE COMPETITIVE AND MORAL QUESTION OF THE GREAT EDUCATION DIVIDE. YEAH. |
| 00:53:55 |
|
WELL, I THINK ALL OF US COULD SPEAK TO THE MORAL ISSUE. I WANT TO SPEAK TO THE ECONOMIC ISSUE. I... |
| 00:55:50 |
|
YOU FIRST. |
| 00:55:54 |
|
REAL QUICK ON THAT. I TOOK IT TO MEAN ECONOMICIVE COMPETITIVENESS IN TERMS THAT WE NEED THE INVASION... |
| 00:57:08 |
|
YEAH. I GUESS I WOULD JUST ADD ONE THOUGHT WHICH IS THAT I THINK THAT THE GREATNESS OF AMERICA HAS... |
| 00:58:47 |
|
BUT I WANT TO DISAGREE A LITTLE BIT. MY DISAGREEMENT IS NOT ON THE ECONOMIC ONES. I ABSOLUTELY CONCUR.... |
| 00:59:57 |
|
I JUST NOT SURE WHAT WE'RE DISAGREEING ABOUT. I THINK THAT -- I THINK THE FOCUS -- YOU'RE DISAGREEING... |
| 01:00:04 |
|
THE QUESTIONER. |
| 01:00:05 |
|
OKAY. |
| 01:00:06 |
|
I JUST SAY IF WE'RE GOING TO BREAK THE CYCLE ON THE NONPERFORMING SCHOOLS, I THINK WE HAVE TO LOOK... |
| 01:00:52 |
|
AND IF THEY CAN'T MOVE TO A BETTER PERFORMING SCHOOL, THEY'RE GOING TO BE LOCKED INTO THAT NONPERFORMING... |
| 01:01:02 |
|
BUT LET'S BREAK THE CYCLE ON THE NONPERFORMING SCHOOLS AND GET THEM UP. |
| 01:01:06 |
|
COMPETITION IS THE BEST WAY TO DO THAT. |
| 01:01:07 |
|
SURE. WE NEED TO HAVE COMPETITION. WE NEED TO MAKE SURE VALUES ARE DEMONSTRATED THROUGH THAT |
| 01:01:12 |
|
YEAH. DO YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT -- WELL, I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT COMPETITION. WHAT I WANT TO TALK... |
| 01:03:10 |
|
TODAY'S EDITORIAL PAGE OF "THE WALL STREET JOURNAL" DOES AN EXCELLENT JOB OF EXPLAINING THE GROWTH... |
| 01:03:52 |
|
LET ME PUSH JOHN A MOMENT. HE TALKED ABOUT THE CORE VALUES OF AMERICA BEING OPPORTUNITY AND EQUITY... |
| 01:04:14 |
|
WELL, I THINK THAT WHAT THE EXPERIMENTS GOING ON AROUND THE COUNTRY ON THAT, TOMMY SUGGESTED ONE SORT... |
| 01:07:05 |
|
LATER ON YOU'LL HEAR FROM TEACHER LEADERS HERE ON THE STATES. BUT I THINK ONE OF THE POLITICAL QUESTIONS... |
| 01:07:43 |
|
WANT TO UNDERSCORE ONE THING JOHN SAID WHICH IS URGENTLYEEEEDED TO GET THE HIGH-PERFORMING TEACHERS... |
| 01:08:01 |
|
THE BEST WAY TO ACCOMPLISH THAT, WALTER, IS PASSING NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND WITH INCREASED STANDARDS... |
| 01:08:06 |
|
RIGHT. |
| 01:08:07 |
|
THAT IS GOING TO DRIVE IT FASTER THAN ANYTHING ELSE. |
| 01:08:10 |
|
AND THE RESOURCES TO FUND IT. I MEAN LET'S -- I MEAN WE AGREE -- WE RUN 100 CHARTER SCHOOLS. WE KNOW... |
| 01:08:45 |
|
IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN BY MONEY ALONE. |
| 01:08:46 |
|
I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT MONEY ALONE. I SAID I EMBRACED THE COMPETITION. WE EMBRACED -- WE'VE GONE OUT... |
| 01:08:56 |
|
ABSOLUTELY. |
| 01:08:57 |
|
I UNDERSTAND THAT. ALL I'M SAYING IS LET'S NOT FORGET THE NUTS AND BOLTS ALSO INVOLVE FUNDING THIS... |
| 01:09:49 |
|
WE'RE GOING TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION HERE AND THIS END IT. JUST SPEAK UP AND I'LL REPEAT IT. [ INAUDIBLE... |
| 01:10:56 |
|
RATHER THAN ALL OF US GOING BACK TO OUR 50 STATES AND DOING WHATEVER WE'RE GOING TO DO TOMORROW MORNING,... |
| 01:11:18 |
|
I THINK YOU'RE EXACTLY RIGHT. I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET WITH ME AFTER. THIS BY THE END OF TONIGHT, WE ... |
| 01:11:42 |
|
I JUST WANT TO UNDERSCORE WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT GETTING GREAT TEACHERS INTO THE HIGHEST NEED SCHOOLSMENT... |
| 01:12:02 |
|
THERE ARE $550 BILLION BEING SPENT TO TODAY. WE BETTER FIGURE OUT HO TO SPEND THAT WEALTH. |
| 01:12:08 |
|
ANYTHING ELSE? |
| 01:12:10 |
|
I JUST THINK IF YOU'RE REALLY GOING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE DATA. YOU'RE... |
| 01:12:19 |
|
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR A VERY INTERESTING PANEL. AND LOOK FORWARD TO THE TEACHERS COMING UP NEXT.... |
| 01:12:32 |
|
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THERE WILL NOW BE A 15-MINUTE BREAK. |
