ROY ROMER SPOKE EARLIER TODAY AT THE ALL-DAY SUMMIT ON EDUCATION ISSUES. WE'RE GOING TO RETURN NOW... |
| 00:00:27 |
|
-- OPTION A OR OPTION B. ALL RIGHT, I'M GOING TO START INTRODUCING OUR PANELISTS FOR OUR NEXT SESSION.... |
| 00:02:35 |
|
I THINK THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WE LEARNED IS THAT WHEN WE REALLY FOCUS ON SOMETHING WE MAKE PROGRESS.... |
| 00:03:00 |
|
JOHN? |
| 00:03:01 |
|
A COUPLE THINGS WE LEARNED. ONE IS THAT THE FUNDAMENTAL PREMISE IN THE ACTION OF THE LAW IS TO MAKE... |
| 00:03:50 |
|
I THINK WHAT WE LEARNED -- I'M NOT GOING TO REPEAT WHAT I DO AGREE WITH BOTH -- WITH WHAT WAS SAID.... |
| 00:04:53 |
|
WELL, I WON'T REPEAT WHAT'S BEEN SAID HERE. BUT I WILL SAY THIS -- I BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE HEARD ALL... |
| 00:05:39 |
|
LET ME START WITH YOU AND THEN I'LL TRY TO NARROW THIS MORE TIGHTLY. WHEN YOU LOOK IN YOUR OWN EXPERIENCE... |
| 00:05:58 |
|
WELL, I'LL START. THE FIRST THING I LOOK AT IS LEADERSHIP. WHEN I WENT TO ATLANTA NINE YEARS AGO,... |
| 00:07:15 |
|
WHEN YOU SAY NO LONGER EXIST, CLOSED? DOOR SHUT? |
| 00:07:19 |
|
ONE WOULD CLOSE COMPLETELY. ONE WE TRANSFORMED INTO AN THE EASTERNTIVE SCHOOL. THERE IS A DROPOUT... |
| 00:07:54 |
|
THE DIVIDING LINE BETWEEN SCHOOLS THAT ARE SUCCEEDING AND THOSE NOT? |
| 00:08:01 |
|
WE LOOKED AT CONDITIONS OF TEACHING AND LEARNINGS IN HIGH PERFORMANCE SCHOOLS AND HELPING SCHOOLS... |
| 00:08:48 |
|
YOU SAID NOT ONLY STUDENTS BUT ALSO PARENTS HAVE TO KNOW WHAT HIGH QUALITY WORK AND EXPECTATIONS ARE.... |
| 00:09:00 |
|
SO I THINK ONEst THINGS THAT NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND DID WAS PROVOKE A VERY STRONG OPPORTUNITY AND DEMAND... |
| 00:09:49 |
|
JOHN MAKES A VERY IMPORTANT POINT. ONE OF THE THINGS WE HAVE NOTICED WHEN WE SPEND TIME IN UNUSUALLY... |
| 00:12:02 |
|
BEFORE RAND JI JUMY JUMPS IN HERE, WHAT DOES THAM PLI? WHEN YOU'RE SAYING THERE IS A DISCONNECT BETWEEN... |
| 00:12:17 |
|
WELL, I THINK WE WOULD ARGUE THAT STATES IN LEAVING THAT CURRICULUM FUNCTION TO LOCAL SCHOOL DISTRICTS... |
| 00:13:15 |
|
YOU KNOW, IT'S -- IT'S GREAT THAT KATIE SAID THAT. IF YOU -- IF THERE WERE TEACHERS IN THIS AUDIENCE,... |
| 00:13:41 |
|
I HAD TO RUSH OVER TO THE SCHOOL TO MAKE SURE I GET A PARKING SPOT SO THAT I CAN BE HERE IN TIME FOR... |
| 00:13:58 |
|
WHO DO YOU VIEW -- DO YOU AGREE WITH KATIE? WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE THAT GAP FILLED? WHAT YOU... |
| 00:14:05 |
|
I THINK I WANT TO GO BACK TO ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS THE WAY YOU ASKED JOHN WHICH IS THE -- THANK... |
| 00:16:09 |
|
TWO THINGS. LET ME BUILD ON WHAT MY COLLEAGUES SAID. FIRST OF ALL, THERE SHOULD BE NO MYSTERY ABOUT... |
| 00:16:46 |
|
THERE IS A VERY CLEAR SET OF WHAT IS THE BODY OF KNOWLEDGE. HOW YOU HAVE TO DEMONSTRATE CAPACITY AND... |
| 00:17:23 |
|
AND DO YOU -- DO YOU SEE IT PRIMARILY AS A QUESTION OF CARROTS, AN OPPORTUNITY OF PROVIDING ON THE... |
| 00:17:41 |
|
IT'S A HUGE QUESTION. SO EITHER TO GO -- I'D LIKE TO ANSWER IT WITH YOUR FIRST PROVICATION WHICH IS... |
| 00:18:51 |
|
LET ME JUST SAY ONE OF THE THINGS WE'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT A LOT AND THOSE OF YOU WHO SAW "THE NEW... |
| 00:20:33 |
|
THANK YOU. GO AHEAD. AND THEN I'LL ASK YOU. |
| 00:20:37 |
|
I WANTED TO SHARE THAT THE WAY WE APPROACH ACCOUNTABILITY PRECEDED NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND IN ATLANTA.... |
| 00:22:38 |
|
IF I WAS GOING TO ASK YOU, HOW THE ACCOUNTABILITY PROVISIONS, THE SPECIFIC ACCOUNTABILITY PROVISIONS,... |
| 00:23:04 |
|
WHAT WE TOLD OUR PEOPLE WHEN THE ACT CAME INTO EXISTENCE, CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON TEACHING WELL, SO THAT... |
| 00:24:23 |
|
HOW DOES IT CHANGE IN YOUR COUNTY? |
| 00:24:26 |
|
VERY MUCH SO. WE HAVE SEEN REMARKABLE PROGRESS IN YOUTH. THE ACCOUNTABILITY PROVISION, QUITE FRANKLY... |
| 00:25:17 |
|
YOU WORKED WITH A LOT OF LOCAL SCHOOL DISTRICTS. WHAT KIND OF TOOLS IS THE LAW PROVIDING FOR LOCAL... |
| 00:25:35 |
|
WHAT WE HAVE SEEN, WHAT THE LAW HAS DONE FOR REFORM, CHANGE ORIENTED SUPERINTENDENTS, IT'S PUT THE... |
| 00:28:53 |
|
YOU KNOW, I CAN STILL PLEAD BEING A LOCAL LEADER, PROBABLY. I STILL HAVE A STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS,... |
| 00:30:26 |
|
WE'RE GOING TO TURN TO THE MODERATORS. DO YOU BELIEVE SCHOOLS SHOULD BE MEASURED BY A BROADER SET... |
| 00:30:36 |
|
I DO, BUT ALSO I WANT TO BE VERY CAREFUL IN TERMS OF HOW I SAY THIS. WHEN YOU GO INTO A SCHOOL THAT... |
| 00:32:11 |
|
WE'RE GOING TO COME BACK AND TALK ABOUT THE NATIONAL ISSUES AND HOW THEY GROW OUT. JASON, ARE YOU... |
| 00:32:26 |
|
WE HAVE A COUPLE QUESTIONS ABOUT PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT TRAINING, THAT SPHERE OF THE WORLD. WE... |
| 00:32:57 |
|
WHO WANTS TO START? |
| 00:32:59 |
|
COMPONENTS OF GOOD DEVELOPMENT ARE. THAT'S VERY, VERY CLEAR. WE DO KNOW, AT THIS POINT, HOW TO TEACH... |
| 00:34:40 |
|
I'D LIKE TO JUMP IN A LITTLE ON WHAT JOHN JUST SAID. ONE OF THE THINGS WE REALLY DISCOVERED IS THAT... |
| 00:35:57 |
|
THIS IS ONE OF THE PARTICULAR AREAS WHERE ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL. AND YET, WE ALL KNOW CERTAIN... |
| 00:37:19 |
|
TO BE HONEST ABOUT THE OTHER PART OF IT, THAT IS WHEN WE'VE INVESTED THE TIME AND PRACTICE DOESN'T... |
| 00:37:56 |
|
ALL RIGHT. LET'S GO TO DIANE TOWARD THE END WITH ANOTHER SET OF REACTIONS AND QUESTIONS IN THE AUDIENCE.... |
| 00:38:41 |
|
INCOMPLETE. |
| 00:38:42 |
|
POSITIVE. |
| 00:38:45 |
|
POSITIVE. |
| 00:38:47 |
|
POSITIVE. THREE POSITIVES AND ONE INCOMPLETE. LET'S START WITH THE MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION. SHOULD... |
| 00:39:05 |
|
LARGELY. I BELIEVE THERE ARE COME PON EPTS OF IT THAT NEED TO BE CHANGED. |
| 00:39:10 |
|
COME BACK AND TALK ABOUT THOSE. |
| 00:39:13 |
|
SO, YES AND NO. THERE ARE THINGS ABOUT THE LAW THAT ARE ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL. FOCUSING ON STANDARDS... |
| 00:39:56 |
|
I'LL COME BACK IN A SECOND. |
| 00:39:59 |
|
CORRECT MISTAKES MADE IN EXCUSE AND DIRECTION TO FUNDING AND METRIC USED TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT... |
| 00:40:41 |
|
I AGREE WITH JOHN. SAME PRINCIPLES, BETTER DETAILS. |
| 00:40:47 |
|
LET'S TALK ABOUT THE TAILS. START WITH YOU BEVERLY. MOST IMPORTANT CHANGES YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE IN... |
| 00:40:56 |
|
WELL, DITTO THE CONTINUITY. WE WANT THOSE THINGS, THE PIECES TO FOCUS. CHANGES. THE GROWTH MODEL.... |
| 00:41:14 |
|
THE GROWTH MODEL MEANING MEASURING THROUGH PROGRESSION? |
| 00:41:19 |
|
THAT'S CORRECT. WE HAVE GOT TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO MAKE SURE THE DATA SYSTEMS EXIST AND THE TECHNOLOGY... |
| 00:44:04 |
|
WHAT DO YOU THINK IT WILL TAKE TO MOVE THE JAM? WHAT WILL HAVE TO HAPPEN TO GET THERE. |
| 00:44:11 |
|
MY BEST GUESS AT THIS POINT IS 2010. WHAT WOULD HAVE TO HAPPEN TO GET THERE IS WORK STARTS EARLY IN... |
| 00:44:36 |
|
WHAT WOULD BE THE MOST IMPORTANT WAYS THE LAWS WOULD LOOK DIFFERENT TO GET TO THAT. WHAT WOULD BE... |
| 00:44:52 |
|
PAST THE DEADLOCK? |
| 00:44:54 |
|
HOW WOULD THE LAW HAVE TO CHANGE TO GET IT DONE? |
| 00:44:59 |
|
I ACTUALLY AM CONFIDENT THAT CONGRESS IS GOING TO STICK WITH IT. WHAT'S HAPPENED LAST YEAR IS WHAT... |
| 00:45:29 |
|
DO YOU THINK THE LAW WILL LOOK MUCH LIKE IT DOES NOW OR WILL THERE BE SIGNIFICANT CHANGES? |
| 00:45:36 |
|
IT DEPENDS ON WHAT SOMEBODY SAYS DOES IT LOOK THE SAME OR DIFFERENT. I'LL GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE. THERE'S... |
| 00:47:21 |
|
DO YOU BELIEVE ONE OF THE ISSUES -- I'LL ASK JOHN ON THIS -- MOVING ON TO URBAN SCHOOL DISTRICTS.... |
| 00:47:34 |
|
TEN YEARS OF SUPERINTENDENT. |
| 00:47:36 |
|
THEY ARE ALL ABOVE AVERAGE. ONE OF THE QUESTIONS THAT'S COME UP A LOT IS WHETHER DESCRIBING TOO MANY... |
| 00:48:06 |
|
I WANT TO GO BACK AND SAY TWO THINGS. SEVERAL POINTS IN THE LAW, WHICH I THINK ARE CRITICAL ARE SOME... |
| 00:49:50 |
|
JOHN, YOU RAISED THE "P" WORD, PRESIDENT. DO YOU FEEL YOU HAVE A CLEAR SENSE OF HOW EITHER JOHN McCAIN... |
| 00:50:10 |
|
I, AS I SUSPECT EVERYBODY ELSE IN THIS ROOM HAS PAID CLOSE ATTENTION TO WHAT EACH IS SAYING ON IT.... |
| 00:50:22 |
|
DO YOU HAVE A SENSE OF DIRECTION? BARACK OBAMA GAVE A SPEECH WHICH HE SAID DON'T TELL US THE ONLY... |
| 00:51:00 |
|
HE'S QUITE CLEAR HE'S PROTESTING AND PROACCOUNTABILITY. HE WANTS BETTER TESTS. I DAUT THERE'S A SINGLE... |
| 00:51:13 |
|
YOU THINK HE'S COMMITTED TO THE STRUCTURE AS IT STANDS? |
| 00:51:20 |
|
NO KOUT. |
| 00:51:23 |
|
THERE'S NO ONE I KNOW WHO IS NOT COMMIT TODAY HAVING FAIR, RELIABLE ACCOUNTABILITY STRUCTURE. THIS... |
| 00:53:18 |
|
YOU MENTIONED THE IDEA OF WHAT WORKS FUND. REPLICATING WHAT WORKS. I WANT TO ASK THE LOCAL, THE SUPERINTENDENTS... |
| 00:53:47 |
|
IT'S BEEN THE CHALLENGE FOREVER. WHEN I WAS A PRINCIPAL IN NEW YORK CITY AND A PRINCIPAL OF TWO LEVELS... |
| 00:55:02 |
|
I AGREE. WE KNOW WHAT WORKS. I'M PROUD OF THE FACT YOU HAVE THE STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT. WE KNOW WHAT... |
| 00:56:11 |
|
WHO IS THE WE IN THAT SENTENCE? WE AS SOCIETY, COMMUNITY, PARENTS? |
| 00:56:19 |
|
WE AS A COMMUNITY. A COMMUNITY RESPONSIBLE. THAT IS THE WE IN THIS CONVERSATION. THE NOTION OF ALL... |
| 00:56:48 |
|
OKAY. |
| 00:56:49 |
|
INTERVENTION FROM THE AUDIENCE. |
| 00:56:52 |
|
THIS IS NOT ON, BUT -- |
| 00:56:54 |
|
YEAH, IT IS. |
| 00:56:55 |
|
IS IT? I THINK WE HAVE TOO MUCH AGREEMENT ON THE PANEL. WE CAN STIPULATE NOW THAT EVERYBODY SUPPORTS... |
| 00:59:21 |
|
WE ONLY HAVE A FEW MINUTES. LET'S GET RESPONDING. |
| 00:59:25 |
|
WHEN I CAME INTO EDUCATION AND AGAIN, RISK OF DATING MYSELF, 1970, NEW YORK CITY, THERE WAS AN AWFUL... |
| 01:01:47 |
|
THOUGHTS FROM ALL OUR PANELESTS. QUICK THOUGHTS. |
| 01:01:52 |
|
WE HAVE, LOOKING AT A COUPLE OF PEOPLE WHO WERE IN THIS NEW YORK CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM SEVERAL YEARS... |
| 01:02:38 |
|
IT'S NOT EITHER. IT IS BOTH. IT IS BOTH WHEN THE JUDGMENT CALL IS FOR YOUTH. I THINK THE IDEA OF... |
| 01:03:09 |
|
KATIE. |
| 01:03:12 |
|
NOBODY WHO HAS WORKED DIRECTLY WITH KIDS WOULD EVER SUGGEST THAT WE DONATE TO IMPROVE HEALTH CARE... |
| 01:04:06 |
|
THOSE ARE THE FINAL WORDS. THANK THE PANEL. GREAT JOB, GUYS. |
| 01:04:17 |
|
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, PLEASE JOIN US AS THE NATIONAL ENL INDICATION SUMMIT CONTINUES DURING OUR LUNCH... |
