Jason Brechko is a National Board Certified Science Teacher and NYS Master Teacher Emeritus. He has been teaching middle school science for the past decade and has over twenty years of teaching experience in grades 7-12. Teaching middle school science has proven to be full of challenges and an opportunity to apply the theory of educational science to improve his instruction. He has been working with Dr. Zachos and ACASE associates to develop the theory of Practical Educational Science and apply it to NGSS.

 

Paul Zachos has been working in the field of education for over 70 years as student, teacher, researcher, policy analyst and program evaluator. He is currently working with teachers designing ways to find out what their students are actually learning…and what they are not learning. He encourages us to follow Walt Whitman’s advice: re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book. Paul co-authored, with Wil Doane, the book Knowing the Learner: A new approach to educational information.
