The Many Faces of Randi Weingarten A series of posts from Defend Public Education by Ken Derstine #EdBlogNet

... Of concern should also be Randi Weingarten's collaboration with corporate education reformers to develop teacher evaluations based on standardized tests. On February 5, 2015 she was praised at a conference of the right-wing American Enterprise Institute for her help in doing this. Those who dismiss Gates money given to the AFT as unimportant should know what this money bought.

I have written extensively about this on my blog. Sorry for the many links but the time is short and I urge everyone to consider what I have written.
