Today on BustED Pencils Drs. Tim Slekar and Johnny Lupinacci talk about the value of post-graduate education for educators. Does earning a master's degree or doctorates make you a better teacher? What's the point of getting one of these degrees? And should teachers even bother with them? They also discuss efforts to eliminate some programs within the University of Wisconsin system and debate the merits of these moves. So, does a doctorate make you cool or is it more like doctor schmockter?
