Subject: Re: log vs. test
Dear Etniers,
I would like to thank Adele for her suggestion to ask Judy directly. I
tried the CET site and was unsuccessful. I will try the ministry site. If
I get a response I will gladly post it for all to see on the Etni site.
As far as my being livid as a parent and perplexed as a teacher. My husband
was offered a post for almost twice the money he is earning now. That would
have meant relocating our 12th grader. The question is very personal. How
can the ministry put out a "Chozer Mankal" about changing a curriculum
without making sure that all loose ends are tied. That is inherently
disrespectful to our students.
I didn't think up this question on my own. It was asked (by someone else)
at the first face to face meeting for the online HOTS course. The teacher
promised us that we will have a chance to ask Judy during the course. (By
the way, over 50 people are signed up for the Tiberias course. so much for
Irgun sanctions)
Adele commented that ETNI is not the place to post this kind of question. I
differ. We are intelligent, motivated and hardworking. Someone out there
may have a solution to propose to this very real problem. I would like to
hear it and I know that many others would like to also.

answer here. Please send your questions to Judy . either in the Judy's
Corner in the open environment on the CET site (top.cet.ac.il) OR go into
the Ministry site, and write her from there. It is an excellent question
that needs to be addressed. But not here.
