Aaron Eyler is a high school history teacher in central New Jersey with a passion for education as well as developing innovative strategies. An avid reader, he spends much of his time muddling through articles, books, and the like on a quest to improve his ability to think critically about education and the school’s role in society. He has a Bachelor’s degree in History and a Master’s degree in Educational Administration & Leadership.
In writing “Synthesizing Education” he hopes to engage more members of the educational community in developing a more comprehensive understanding of the type of academic environment we need to develop students’ minds. The reality is that he is shopping PhD programs (that he can afford) and needs somewhere to write and kick ideas around just to pass the time. In addition, he hopes to agitate people with new perspectives and extend our thinking so that we are all continually questioning what goes on in schools. He is a firm believer that once we believe we have it all figured out, we become dumb.
Aaron is a contributing writer to “Cooperative Catalyst”: a blog that focuses on collaborative work between a variety of teachers to work towards solutions to some of education’s biggest problems. In addition, he contributes to “Bridging the Gap”: a blog that attempts to connect scholarly research to classroom practice. He has written guest blogs for “The Edurati Review” and “For The Love of Learning”.

Upon review, blogs will be added and books will be read. In addition, if you would like to contribute a post to “Synthesizing Education”, please e-mail your idea for consideration.
