It’s disingenuo­us

-

DeSantis wants first responders and ex-military to teach because they have “real world experience.” Why is he such a disingenuo­us little man? He should just say he wants teachers who he thinks will agree with him instead of teachers who might have a liberal point of view.

I served 21 years in the Marine Corps. I have a Master’s Degree and taught management and communicat­ion classes at the Master’s level. But I know that I would have had to take more courses to teach at the elementary school level.

Will one of his paid education shills explain to him the difference between pedagogy and andragogy? He’s against any “indoctrina­tion” of students unless it is his indoctrina­tion. Wake up, Floridians. He’s for you only as long as you are for him. Your freedom better be his freedom. Janis Joplin was a prophetess when she sang, “Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose.”
