Parent/Teacher Conferences–More Cartoons* | Larry Cuban on School Reform and Classroom Practice

Parent/Teacher Conferences–More Cartoons* | Larry Cuban on School Reform and Classroom Practice:


Parent/Teacher Conferences–More Cartoons*

If readers following this blog have not yet guessed it, I am a sucker for cartoons about school reform policies, classroom practice, and larger education issues. Cartoonists have the knack of getting to the basic point, albeit, with exaggeration, even caricature. Sometimes, they hit the bullseye and say what needs to be said even if it makes the reader wince. Getting the viewer to smile, maybe chuckle, and mutter: “how true” is the cartoonist’s reward.
Here is another set of cartoons about exchanges between teachers and parents that may elicit groans, laughter, or flinches. Enjoy.
