By: Jack Harrington San Diego, CA (ER) March 10, 2009 – Statistics show that more than 50% of new K-12 teachers are leaving the profession in their first five years. One contributing factor is student behavior. Teachers without the materials and classroom management skills necessary to sustain engaging lessons end up with classes full of behavior problems. Teachers want to make a difference not babysit students. ER offers a substantial remedy with its’ Education Rebel ezine. Education reform is on the front burner on many social and political agendas, including the integration of performance based pay. Teachers are realizing they must boost their pedagogy to achieve better student test scores in order to receive higher pay. Today, without taking another professional development class or attending another Professional Learning Community (PLC) meeting, K-12 educators are drastically improving lessons using the Education Rebel ezine. Teachers cannot rely on a textbook or file cabinets stocked with worksheets to combat student apathy. John Dewey, a renowned education psychologist, articulated that experiential learning is necessary for knowledge transfer. The Education Rebel ezine provides a data mine making it easy to apply Dewey’s theory in lessons and establish an experiential learning environment.
