We would NEVER accept this kind of excuse from physicians. Teachers like physicians have the lives of others in their hands with serious consequences for incompetence. Information about the effective teaching of AS has been available since I graduated from my undergraduate institution in 1973! And, even before then, good teachers were flourishing. But, it is only now (because the numbers warrant it) that educators, politicians, ect. have begun to examine the issues closer. Excuses come a dime a dozen; but the results are the same. We have got to do better!
