Kathy Cox Likes YouTube
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
State Board of Education meetings are pretty staid affairs.
Sure, State Department of Education staffers provide plenty of PowerPoint presentations, but most of the discussions involve fairly dull stuff. Consent agenda, anyone?
Today’s meeting, where I’ve been all day, just got a little more exciting when State Superintendent of Schools Kathy Cox played a musical YouTube video, which looks like it was produced by some high school mathletes from New York.
Cox, who likes a good laugh, said she shared “What you know about math?” with math teachers at a recent training session on the new Georgia Performance Standards.
Who knew Cox knew YouTube?
Now, I know what you’re thinking: One of her sons probably found that video. But maybe we’ll get another installment next month.
