Point / Counterpoint by Zulma Prieto / Joe Rueff |

Editorial by Zulma Prieto (in English and en Español) |

My physics teacher once told me that the accumulation of
a quantitative change generates a qualitative change. His explanation
was like this: If you have an egg and you increase the heat
(quantitative change), eventually there will be a qualitative change; it
becomes a hard boiled egg. Even more there is no possibility to reverse
the process. |

Hace mucho tiempo mi profesor de física me dijo que la
acumulación de un cambio cuantitativo genera un cambio cualitativo. Su
explicación fue algo así: Si se toma un huevo y se aumenta el calor
(cambio cuantitativo), eventualmente habrá un cambio cualitativo, lo que
lo convierte en un huevo duro cocido. Además, no hay posibilidad de
revertir el proceso. |

Zulma Prieto in her ElPuente editorial reveals political
concerns about how things are run in the US. While many in our country
share these concerns, I am finding even greater concern about how
American schools are run and the failure to develop our students for
life and work in the 21st Century. I urge you to read both Zulma's editorial and Peter’s
article. Because of its length we are setting up the article separately.
