This entry has nothing to do with WebQuests but it caught my eye and leads from my comment on the NY Times article on Building Better Teachers reported on 4th March 2010.
The Herald (a newspaper in regional NSW, Australia) reported yesterday (23rd March - Inequity in what Hunter schools stimulus money will buy) about inequities on how the Federal Rudd Government monies to schools was spent. Instead of praising Black Hill Public School principal Brian Adamthwaite to the hilt about his decision to project manage the building of "the first permanent buildings at the school in its 128-year history", the newspaper concentrates on comparing other schools that didn't take this initiative!
What a Principal - Mr Adamthwaite certainly lives up to the school's motto: Endeavour and Achievement!
It goes to show that being a Principal (and a teaching Principal as well!) is more than meets the eye!
Congratulations Brian on a job well done!
