I believe that there is a place for for-profit schools in education.
I am only slightly familiar with the Edison project, but I think
that to encourage real innovation quickly in schools, we need to
move the government out of education. I think competition will
inspire innovation and equity in schools. There is now too much
beaurocracy that inhibits teachers and the learning process. The
innovations I look for are technology based, and their
adoption would entail a culture change that I think is impossible in
our current educational system.

So would do you think about for-profit schools and getting the
government out of education? I would like to share views. You can respond
to me direct or on this bulletin board. By the way, does anyone know
where I can get more information on the Edison Project, and has anyone
seen the excellent article by Lewis Perelman in the premier issue of
Wired magazine? The article discusses the evolution of the classroom
and the role of technology in the classroom as the author builds his
case for getting the government out of education. Any thoughts if
you have read the article?

I look forward to hearing from you!
