They should bring back paddling. It worked in the 80's.

Answer 2

Its people that is wrong with the schools. Teachers and researchers are always trying to find out what is wrong with schools, and so they come up with all sorts of unnecessary tricks in order to get kids to learn. Smaller class sizes, memory tricks, a caring and "lets be friends" attitude contributes to the problem, instead of helping it. But to find the real problem, one has to look to WWII.
After soldiers came home from the war, things were a little more lenient. Then you had the baby boomers, who some of which are really spoiled brats who feel that because they went to college and protested against the evil nation of America, they are entitled to anything they want. This attitude went on to their kids, who became spoiled and lazy. How many kids are diagnosed with learning problems today. And how many of them actually have them. I just recently graduated from High School, and I saw many of my classmates goof off. They didn't all have learning disabilities, unless you count laziness a disability. Teachers and administrators encourage this attitude with saying that its alright, that they can't make the child feel bad 'cause it could ruin their self-esteem.

Did you know that of any profession that requires a college education, teachers had the lowest SAT scores and general grades of any of them?

Answer 3

I don't think the school system is a suitable way of learning. A lot of flaws. Deans shouldn't exist. There should be more fairness. Often teachers come in late, but the students arrive 5 seconds late and they must stay 30 minutes to an hour later afterschool. It's disrespect. High school should be more like college, and the parents should be required to be involved from day one, or a tutor, similar to how insurance is required for vehicles. The bell system should be eliminated for this isn't a dolphin training session. They should recieve all of their work in a lump sum and be able to jurisdict their own schedule. School buildings should be multiple auditoriums. Each class of each type gets it's own section and set of tutors who stay there for the whole schoolday. All levels go to one auditorium, similar to the old days of one schoolhouse containing all levels from kindergarten to 8th grade. Different levels should get different sections, and the teacher should go over a direct lesson plan, in which the students could record, similar to college. If they have any questions, they can consult their manual tutor afterwards. They'd have time to do it in class, and if they needed immediate help they'd have their tutors telephone number in order to call them. If they do not pay attention in class, similar to college, it wouldn't make a difference, they'd have to answer to their parents and tutors when their homework was being gone over later that day. The tutor, parent, and teacher, should all be a team in getting the student proper help and motivation, both aspects of life, home and school. The drop out rate and graduation rates would both improve with that. Not to mention jobs created from the tutoring companies. Any misbehavior results as though it were an offense commited on the street and real police would arrest them and take them away. Disruptions are reported to the tutor and the teacher, and repeated offenses would cause them to be dropped from the class after a special probationary period, to see if they can improve their behavior.

Answer 4

Teachers aren't paid enough, so the only people who do it are people who love it or that cannot do anything else. So you get a mix of good and bad educators, and the good ones usually don't last that long because they are not paid well and get treated so poorly. Educators should be treated like doctors, or other skilled professionals because their job is so important, that would bring more competition to the field and more good eduacators would be teaching children.

Answer 5

Just blunders and slip-ups with human errors blindly threw our creator's universal gifts of life for the survival of living human kind .
