how would you make school better?

Question

What would you change about your school system to help you and/or your family learn better?

I would have teachers with a variety of teaching styles in each grade, to suit each childs' learning style, not just one or two like the schools I know of.

As far as answer 4 goes ... I asked a question, it did not imply that I did not read, or teach my family myself. stick to the question if your going to answer please! :-D

Answer 1

I'd remove the computers. Really.

This would encourage better reading and writing skills (not to mention penmanship), but also remove an unnecessary distraction.

I'm not sure I know what you mean by "learning style"; but, I can assure you that each teacher has his own methods.

Answer 2

I would have different levels in each subject, and make sure that logical and analytical thinking was encouraged with games, puzzles etc. Sicne that's what matters in the real world.

Answer 3

That and I'd make all the kids just a little nicer but the teachers may help do that, when everyone is sitting in school and is miserable because they have a nasty or just a plain old bad teacher, I dunno about you but that doesn't make me a happy camper.

Answer 4

~If you are going to rely on schools and teachers to learn, you've got problems. Pick up a book.
