I’m Making Ben DeGrow a Famous Expert on Aspen NPR Education Interview
by Eddie | 9:14 am, March 19, 2010 | Comments Off
Yesterday my Education Policy Center friend Ben DeGrow appeared on a National Public Radio station in the Carbondale / Aspen area to talk about some of the pressing education issues facing our state. Follow this link to listen to his interview with Matthew Katz of KDNK.
For more on the topics Ben references in his interview, check out these past posts of mine:
- National Council on Teacher Quality Affirms Me on Race to the Top
- “Sweet 16″ Too Many Finalists, Race to the Top Winners Get “One Shining Moment”?
- How to Push Ben DeGrow’s Buttons in Making Arguments about School Funding
- iVoices: Superintendent Mike Miles on Real Teacher Performance Pay in Harrison
Ben tells me that he was selected for the interview because the KDNK reporter was intrigued by my writings here. I asked Ben for a cut of the money he got for doing the interview, or I might have to resort to kicking his shins or something like that.
I’m not sure I should believe him, but Ben said he didn’t make a cent for doing the interview. Oh well, at least KDNK gave a shout-out to Ed Is Watching — even if they let Ben pretend and take the credit for all my precocious hard work here.
