We are participants because, for some of us, we are citizens of the United States and responsible to the country in the way that our government asks. We have a [...]]]></description>

Some topics, including password security or identity and personal information, have received some attention from curriculum developers. Yet other topics have received relatively scant attention. For example, there are few [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over the past year, I&#8217;ve given significant thought to various approaches education policymakers might adopt in defining learning standards. I have also enthusiastically embraced (and contribute to) Mozilla&#8217;s work to develop Web Literacy Standards.

But I only started to pay attention to them recently and, in paying attention, was struck by the apparent regularity of vocalizations within each song, and of the time between songs &#8211; particularly those in the morning and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While reading on the roots of the essentialist educational tradition, I came across the work of William Chandler Bagley, an early 20th century educator and later-proponent of essentialist education reform. What surprises me most is that many of the education-related conversations we have today are not new; in fact, they&#8217;re conversations that have been ongoing for over [...]]]></description>

While engaging in our normal Sunday morning behavior (answering e-mail), we stumbled into a brick wall: Google had changed our Compose E-Mail experience.

		<description><![CDATA[This weekend, we continued our cheese-making tradition by creating our first hard cheese: a farmhouse cheddar. Hard cheese require more time and care than soft. And, although some soft cheeses are pressed (to remove water) and aged (to develop flavor), typically the pressing and aging times are much shorter. Farmhouse cheddar is basically a white [...]]]></description>
