I subscribe to the ASCD smart brief, a principal at one of the schools I teach at recommended it to me, he said it would keep me informed as a teacher. I saw it somewhere in the ed tech website and so I decided to click over and read one from this summer to comment on.
This little email subscription is great. They provide information and links to lots of issues happening in the nation as far as education is concerned.
This issue was not the headline issue of the day, but it was right under it. It was a study posted in science daily that addresses that students learn life information about STD's and pregnancy better when it is presented to them by their regular teachers. It seems that students will listen and learn better from someone they know and trust.
DUH! I feel like if it is not your parents who are telling you, you are much more likely to understand and care about it if your teacher that you see every day tells you about the issues instead of some lady that is a specialist talking about the reproductive system after they split you from the boys.
A good study though, and always good info provided by the smartbrief.
