"And I'm free... freewriting" (tom petty)

I would really like to make good revisions to all of my papers, so I will start with my first assignment and work down...

No child left behind. what is it? what are its goals? is it accomplishing goals? does it favor a certain race? does it work well some places and not others? President Obama and current affairs regarding education. revisions. parent reactions. Indiana. test scores. high school success rates. college success rates. how has it affected me, family? watch for generalizations. Many don't support NCLB, use them to advantage. past educational systems. pros/cons. NCLB major problems?

Solving the Problems. who? Obama? Congress? state petitions/action in general? what needs revised? funding. curriculum. textbooks. Start integrating technology. textbooks may become obsolete. different grading scales. what can be defined and graded. Creativity can't necessarily be graded, but what about things related to creativity. Innovation. writing. speech. go back to the training and education system of the Spartans. uhhh... may be not.

Moral Flexibility. what is it? does everyone have moral flexibility. in a sense, most likely. Thank you for smoking. Nick Naylor. has moral flexibility. arguments valid? are moral flexibility and validity related. Gorgias and Naylor similarities. What action or statement defines their moral flexibility?
