Decent Essays

The teacher can't get to each person in the class to make shore everyone gets and understand the topic. If a student does not understand and the teacher moves and the student will fall behind for the rest of the year. If the student fall behind they will either struggle all year or just zone out during the class.

    With school having many students but not very many teachers classes are skewed beyond belief. Students do not get to pick their courses but are randomly assigned. This means if a student is interested in let’s say hairdressing and she gets put in a sewing class she is stuck in that sewing class. So students that are qualified to take an AP course may not be able to be put in those classes because they are randomly assigned and that means some kids are destined to fail if they are not up to AP standards and are put in an AP course. In addition, if students do not have internet or a place to study they have only a half hour after school to work in the library.…

This year, as well as previous years, many students had to go to their guidance counselor and change things before the school year even started!

    In Cathy Davidson’s article, Project Classroom Makeover, one can easily see how biased and unrealistic the majority of her ideas and opinions are towards creating a new education paradigm. She has many valid points, but the amount of holes in her plans outweighs the benefits. What Davidson wants is an education to be interesting, while providing children with a successful start to life. While her intentions are possible, she is hoping for the wrong things to be changed in order for her scenario to work. Cathy Davidson strongly believes that standardization is inhibiting the ability for students to show their true potential outside of what is deemed important by the school.…

    No other attempts of tutoring is given after that. This results in children getting left behind in classes and sometimes even have to repeat grades. When taught an assignment or project students are not told the purpose of them or how it contributes to the lesson they are learning. Most of the time children don’t know what is going on until they see the end results. When kids offer ideas to get the assignment easily done the results are getting yelled at by teachers as punishment for not following their procedures.…

    If teachers could get rid of tests, quizzes, and worksheets, and give one long term project, could students learn more in an easier fashion? some SCHOOLS ARE MOVING TOWARD THIS TYPE OF TEACHING. Students who procrastinate would fall behind in this learning scheme. The traditional methods of teaching are better because long term projects lessen learning time, procrastinators would fall behind, and projects don't test your knowledge as much. Without tests there are very limited ways to test the information students have learned.…

    My experience in J.P. Elder Middle School was very interesting. The first thing that made an impression on me was how the teacher talked to the students. His tone of voice was very strict and loud, but he was trying to be as helpful as he could. I feel as if he was trying to make sure they understood while making sure they kept their attention on him. But the result of the loud voice hurt my ears, and it almost made me want to zone out.…

    “The number of standardized tests U.S. public school students take has exploded in the past decade. . .” The reason for that is to test a school’s competency as a whole through test scores. Test scores are not a good indicator of school competency because it isn’t an accurate representation of the school as a whole. First of all, some students are not on the same level as everybody else in the class they’re put in. For example, students might miss a lot of class due to family troubles.…

    First, students' rights to free speech should be limited in schools. Students should be able to have freedom of speech but there has to be a line drawn at some point. The extent should be limited to being able to wear symbolic clothing and similar stuff like that. The freedom of speech should not be to the point to where there is long drawn out speeches in school and/or short speeches such as talking in class about it or talking in the hallway.
