RE: Question 1: Quality Education

BOB KAWKA - I AGREE WITH YOUR 'We need to review the research and 
then plan our education programs based (on) real information and 
needs at each of the child's development levels.'
TO DO THIS, WE ARE GOING TO NEED EDUCATORS WHO ARE THEMSELVES 
AWARE OF THEIR OWN INNATE CAPACITIES AS LEARNERS, + WHO ARE 
PREPARED TO RECOGNIZE, APPRECIATE AND ENGAGE DIVERSITY - IN ALL 
ITS FORMS PRESENTED TO US IN CALIFORNIA'S MULTICULTURAL PUBLIC 
SCHOOLS, AND INCLUDING DANIEL GOLEMAN'S 'EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE' 
AND HOWARD GARDNER'S 'MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES' AND INDIVIDUAL 
UNIQUE LEARNING STYLES.
ALL IN ALL, WE'VE GOT TO ENGAGE AND INSPIRE EACH STUDENT TO 
BECOME A SELF-INITIATING, SELF-SUSTAINING LEARNER FOR LIFE.
