Hi - I’ve just guest-blogged on the AASL blog about my first experience leading a Webinar.  It was fun (especially since I didn’t know I’d be filling in until Monday - little time to panic about it!). �

… maybe it’s because this is what’s happening in MBA programs:

 A study of cheating among graduate students, published in 2006 in the journal Academy of Management Learning & Education, found that 56 percent of all M.B.A. students cheated regularly — more than in any other discipline. The authors attributed that to “perceived peer behavior” — in other words, students believed everyone else was doing it.

Saturday was the 2nd day in the MAME Leadership Institute.  I don’t know how those of you who attended felt, but I got home from Frankenmuth Saturday night and promptly fell asleep from exhaustion! It was definitely a thought-stretching day as we delved deeper into the AASL Standards and their implications for our day-to-day work, especially against a backdrop of uncertain funding for Michigan school districts.
