The Pursuing Performance Blog
"Learning is not the end goal. Specific "Performance Competence" is. Generic Competencies are only foundational if they can transfer to another performance context. Research suggests that they usually will not. Formal Performance-based Instruction & Information is needed, where warranted by the risks and rewards, to enable the workflow, either during and/or prior to the workflow performance. For Performance Competence. And ROI."

Schools Matter
This space will explore issues in public education policy; and it will advocate for a commitment to and a re-examination of the democratic purposes of schools. If there is some urgency in the message, it is due to the current reform efforts that are based on a radical re-invention of education, now spearheaded by a psychometric blitzkrieg of "metastasized testing" aimed at dismantling a public education system that took almost 200 years to build.
