Caitlin Krause, a contributor for EdSurge, writes: "Every teacher I know has had a back-to-school nightmare. We forget our lesson plans. We come unprepared, and students are depending on us. We make fools of ourselves in the very public setting of our classroom. And it's the first day of school, so the students don't know us yet. We haven't yet established a connection. We’re in a room full of strangers — our new students — and we're exposed as incompetent."
