TPE F

First off, this article was not what I thought it was (see blog entry in TPE Intro).  As a matter of fact, I was way off and completely wrong. : )

This article felt very much administrator vs teacher.  I've been able to play the role of both, so I was left with lots of questions.  What is my accountability as a teacher to my students vs what is my accountability as a teacher to the school?  How do I decide to move on in my curriculum to cover standards and possibly leave students behind or do I take my time to ensure all my students understand before moving on?  Will focusing on overall school results compromise individual learning plans?  Will my knowledge on both sides help me become a "better" teacher or will it create more conflicts within myself?  I was the one handing state standards to teachers last year who were semi-resistant.  Will I be resistant, too?
