Q: maintaining the separation of church and state in public education?
what is the best strategy for maintaining the separation of church and state in public education while respecting the role of religion?

A: The courts are assigned the duty to uphold the Constitution, which means the courts will impose the separation of church and state in public education. The best way to assist the courts is to bring the lawsuits when there is an infringement on the Establishment Clause, which means when it appears that the school is promoting one religion to the exclusion of all others. Schools can still teach about religions, and students are still permitted to pray on a voluntary basis, though they can't be forced to.

Q: If I wanted to get my teaching degree in the state of California, would the state of CA pay for my education?
I'm planning on becoming a teacher. I want to go to Cal State University San Marcos and I have no support from my family (financially speaking.) I was wondering if anyone knew if the state of California would pay for my education based off of my desire to become a teacher. I know that the state of Wisconsin does, and I know that the state of Massachusetts (where I currently live) does not because Massachusetts is completely broke and cannot fund that anymore.

A: They don't pay you to do it - rather when you get hired you can get some of your costs reimbursed... if my memory serves me right.

Q: how do i get my teaching credentials certified by any state education board in the usa?
i trained and currently reside in Nigeria and i intend to migrate.

A: ever state has different requirements. However if you get national board certified which I hear is a pain is the bottom, you can get certified anywhere.

Q: Has the state of education declined because smart women are going into other fields besides teaching?
When I first heard someone ask this question, I thought it was incredibly demeaning and sexist. However, if you think about it, there's some sense to it. In our significantly more sexist culture of the past, women "could only be" teachers, nurses, or secretaries. Thus, there was a higher likelihood that smart women went into those jobs. However, in our less sexist (though still sexist) culture of today, smarter women are going into engineering, business, law, etc. and not teaching. I realize this question may open the floodgates of criticism, but I think it is an interesting one.

A: Terrific question. My direct response to your question is "no." In my view, education -and I'm assuming for the purposes of my rationale that we're speaking of American public education- has not only declined but is generally dysfunctional because it's not an education system predicated on a social model ... instead, we use an economic model for our systems (including education) and that allows for the system to be politicized. As such, in my way of thinking, public education in America is in the waste heap because it's a political system not a learning system. Now, about that clause "smart women are going into other fields besides teaching." Of course, women -regardless of IQ, SAT scores, and the other silly measurements of what the politicos and pundits consider "smart"- are going into other fields besides teaching simply because those fields are more open and accepting to them today (as opposed to most of the 20th century where ... well, let's face it, this so-called democracy of ours didn't get around to "allowing" females to vote until 1920 ... so that alone speaks volumes for how the dominant/elite class of white males viewed [and most likely continue to view] females). However, I -and I'm sure many women also- feel that the phrasing of your question is a slight for anyone who teaches and specifically, women who teach. I mean, we can only assume that you put the adjective "smart" before the noun "women" because you were making a statement! If you did so unwittingly, then there is still concern for the rather sub-conscious use of the notion of "smart women" relative to all other women. Then, it seems to get illuminated even more in your second paragraph when you say, "... smarter women are going into engineering, business, law, etc. and not teaching." Oh my! Of the 304 million people currently in our population, nearly 51% are female ... yet, of the nearly 23 million firms owned in the US, only 28% are owned by women. At the same time, nearly half (49%) of all college graduates are women, yet they are consistently discriminated against (in my view, it's institutionalized discrimination) in all walks of life, not the least of which is in equitable wages ... a woman gets only $0.76 to a man's $1.00 That, in fact, may be the essential core of the argument as presented by women in teaching versus smarter women in any other field but teaching. I have had the pleasure and fortune to, in my adult life, spend my professional experiences between the corporate and academic sectors. Those experiences (anecdotal), combined with data from material I read (including the census) does not support the notion that "smarter women" select out-of-teaching ... instead, my understanding -as flawed as it might be- indicates that women wanting more money for their time and effort may select out of teaching. Interestingly enough, that axiom seems to hold true for men also.

Q: What's the biggest difference in a California UC education v. a State College education?
I don't know want's best for my teenager a UC or State College education.

A: What are your child's goals? Typically a UC school is more demanding and generally attracts those graduate in the top 10% of their high school class. UC Berkeley and UCLA are the two of the best known UC schools. But it is your child who needs to decide for him/herself if the school is a good fit, not the reputation a university has. A personal tour of the school is the best way to assess his/her needs. Talk with the students on campus and you'll get a good idea if the school is right for him/her.
