Joanne Jacobs has been blogging about education for eons, in internet time. She recently passed the 1,600,000 visit mark!!! Here are selections from her recent posts:
There's been an effort recently at some schools to ban candy. Economist Tim Harford doubts they can do it. One thing jumped out at me: a student is making $100 a day selling candy on the school grounds. William Guntrip is a 13-year-old boy who buys candy at the store and retails it during school hours.
And Joanne links to an article by Scott Elliot about a high school with a video game track. The students sign up for a three year program to design, create, and sell a video game. Sounds fun.
