- Through what hoops will the state make us jump in order to make sure we haven’t left any children behind? — Chris
- Why does it pour when it rains? — Eric
- Do I avoid a stressful situation I seem to have extricated myself from (a football team worthy of a box-office dramedy screenplay), or jump back in with the promises from them that it will get better? — sara
- Is the craziness surrounding Portfolios really worth the product? — April
- Who helped you in your learning this week? — Tracy
- What are the elements of a class’ atmosphere that the students would say are most important for a feeling of safety-in-learning, collaboration, creativity, comfort, joy, and risk-taking in learning? — Connie

- If I stop engaging with the Luddites, then how can I help my organization move forward? — Kathryn
- At this time of the year I always wonder if being in a child centered project based classroom this year will really prepare my kids for the lecture based teacher centered classrooms of high school? — Paul
