Dear EdWeek Readers -- Welcome.
As you’ll quickly see, this blog is informal, constantly updated, and full of comments and speculation -- totally unlike the carefully reported and balanced journalism on the rest of the EdWeek site. And that’s what makes it interesting --irreverent but still basically responsible insights on the world of education.
I’ve posted some entries from earlier in the week (below) so you can see what’s been happening over the past busy week or so. Like in an email, newer entries are towards the top. There are usually three to five new posts a day, starting with a roundup of the most interesting news stories that’s posted by 9 AM Eastern.
For the full explanation of who we are and how this blog works, scroll down to the bottom. If you have any questions, thoughts, or responses, please feel free either to comment in the comment sections below each entry, or send us an email at thisweekineducation@gmail.com.
Thanks. Hope you like it here, and come back often. -- Alexander
