Carnival Grade: F
The Carnival of Ed is posted. Now, for those of you who have never hosted a carnival, it’s pretty simple. People submit articles. You paste the URLs for the submitted articles, surround it with something, and you’re done.
A sixth-grader could do it.
But this blogger apparently cannot. Two of the best bloggers in the edusphere, Jane and Mamacita, were ignored? not included? forgotten? who knows? I know this because they left comments.
If you look on the blogger’s about page, you see this:
I have worked in the Education field for almost twenty years and have experienced it from almost every angle.
[ . . . ]
I have been a teacher for four years, receiving my certification via an alternative teaching certification program that demanded every ounce of me including a pledge to produce high-scoring testers with a panache for being led around like sheep. I managed to escape the brainwashing and focus on creating socially aware learners who will inherit the earth.
Let’s hope those learners are more capable than you, who can’t manage to paste a simple URL. I’ll be nice and ignore the substance-free idiot phrase, “socially aware.”

“Learners”, sure — but can they learn what “panache” means?
