President
Barack Obama's
Educational Pledge T-Shirt
THE PRINCIPLES OF LEARNING:
The Barack Obama T-Shirt is based on the literary work of Puerto Rican Poet and Writer,
The work, "The Educational Pledge" was written in 1992 for preparation for a workshop at NYC's Buruch College where he first presented it to a gorup of Latino Students who invited him to speak during Hispanic Heritage Month.
Since then, the pledge has been included in countless publications, including his book, Never too late to make a U-turn: An Educational Pledge & 15 Questions to Self-Development, published in 2005.
The Educational Pledge has been widely published and utilized by publications, internet sites, organizations, schools, and individuals throughout the United States.
It is a great honor to have "The Educational Pledge" attached to the first African-American President, Barack Obama.
With these two great images, a positive role model like President-Elect Obama, and "The Educational Pledge", the Obama's Principles of Learning T-Shirts would serve as an excellent gift for our children, youth and family membes.
The Educational Pledge has also been translated into Spanish, known as "La Promesa Educacional."
A perfect gife for students and teachers!
