I thought his brother George W. was the family ne'er do well.

There probably isn’t peer review because no scientist will give a pass to intelligent design. But then again, “evolution” is just a theory. So is democracy in Iraq.

You folks should look at this Ignite material. It is really crazy. I started looking at their Science brochure looking for a ref to Intelligent Design (I made the previous comment as a joke). http://www.ignitelearning.com/curriculum/2007_Science_for_email.pdf
Nothing on ID, but found other disturbing material.
First of all, I think that the picture they show of the atom (Nitrogen actually) which is not really accurate. An atoms electron shell order should have a maximum number of electrons of 2, 8, 8, 18, 18, 32, 32. When you fill up one “shell”, you move out a layer and start to fill up the next “shell”. Theirs shows 2 then 5 more electrons. It appears that the next 5 electrons really do not fill a “shell” and instead just hover on the outer area going between shells 3, 4 and 5.
Also look at how the atom is being presented by a DJ. You know, kids learn so well to hip-hop. If it wasn’t for rap, Einstein would have stayed at the patent office and never even thought about the quantum nature of light.
The other thing is that homework done for the class is as if they were working for a company and they need to issue a report to. The company is Reality Inc and their boss as a shady figure named Mortimer Gravitas.
And their “Cow” which is a projector to present all of the lessons. When I was a kid, we use to totally blow off movies. They did me no good in school. Now, that is the solution. You get shitty teachers who can run a projector and grade a paper. That being said, Schoolhouse Rock does help me remember the difference between an adjective and adverb.
Where I get pissed is that I am a degreed engineer trying to go from the industry environment to teach math and science. I talk to teachers and administrators and they all say, “That’s great, we need people like you”. I go to the state and universities trying to get certification, and there is nothing but roadblocks. Then there are hacks out there like this.
