“As fresh eyes on corporate America, newcomers to the world of work sometimes have the clearest view of what’s seriously silly about how a company does business — employees who have been with an organization for awhile accept things as standard that, to the uninitiated, simply seem stupid.”
Now, read the same sentence again. This time, substitute the word “students” for “newecomers” and the words “schools,” “teacher,” “teaching,” etc. for “corporate America,” company,” etc.
Why would this idea still make as much sense about educators as it does about business?
