You couldn't pay me a million dollars to go to school to get a masters in education, especially if it meant having to sit through two years of the bullcrap I had to slog through for three days
this is where I realize that being a math major was a terrible idea
batchelors of pmat but no phd?! gtfo, jim
fuck you society
American society only has use for "useful degrees"
Mr. 100-and-50-cubic-centimeters, do you have any ideas on how to teach people that doesn't have them end up very passive? I have none but I also have very little teaching experience.

Philosophy major? LOL HAVE FUN AT MCDONALDS
BUSINESS DEGREES ONLY, BITCHES
I just applied to a college as a Philosophy major...damn. Second choice: English.
However, I want to be on a pre-law tract so maybe there is hope for me?
I'm terrified of how bad it's going to be when I'm a teacher.
Fire and blood everywhere
Also, virgins
Doubtful on the virgins.
I'll be teaching physics. The way this country is going, everyone will have fucked in like second grade.
Seriously, there were 13 girls who got pregnant in the middle school last year. They were twelve goddamn years old.

if by passive you mean talking to them and them listening that shit doesn't fly anymore
the kids have to be engaged...but my biggest problem is with teachers who think they need to put on a show like the fucking circus
I'm not there to entertain, I'm there to teach them something. If everything we do doesn't make them better at math we're wasting time.
At my conference I was literally told to teach to the test
KIDS HAVE TO PASS THE STATE TEST TO GRADUATE AND FOR YOUR SCHOOL TO BE FUNDED
MAKE SURE YOU TEACH THE STANDARDS SO THAT THEY DO WELL ON THE TEST
my brother is dealing with that right now...in fucking third grade
from the very first day of class they have been forcing him to study for a state-wide test
i think my mom is going to boycott it all and not make him take the test, since he's really stressing out over it
third graders should not be getting stressed out over school
they are teaching him to hate school at such a young age
As in, people would rather sit there and be fed information and ideas, instead of finding information for themselves, or exploring new ideas. I think we, as in U.S.A. culture, is used to being told what to think, and passiveness is part of that.
For the past few weeks, I've been learning how fucked up Latin America (and to a lesser extent, the middle east) has been since, well, pretty much since it was settled. Do you teach anything as interesting as that, sock?
Some of the people in this class are pretty stupid, which makes me glad my parents cared about school quality more than anything else whenever we moved.
Instructional Coach: Every lesson you teach needs to have a real-life application. Kids need to see that everything they learn has to be useful.
150cc: Well... isn't it better just to get them to learn for the sake of learning? Learning is supposed to be fun, why can't I just worry about that? Why does everything have to be useful, why can't I just show them how to learn things just because it's fun to learn?
Instructional Coach: Good luck, kids will never do that.
150cc: That's a little... negative.
Instructional Coach: How long have you been teaching?
150cc: Three years.
Instructional Coach: Figures.
To be fair, my favorite class ever was a personal finance class I took in high school, because it was actually very useful. Learning for the sake of learning, sure, there's that.

2 days a week it is rad powerpoint day in which we do nothing but look at cool ancient pictures
tomorrow's rad powerpoint features images of naked Greeks wrasslin'
so many hugs for all the good teachers ive had
I just solved that problem, I fucking love physics.
I could never see myself doing anything other than teaching, though.

Mosta my teachers are pretty cool, and the one's who aren't are just kind of... set in their ways.

Where the fuck is your homework, Johnny?
Don't make me bust a cap in your ass!
I mean, I guess we're supposed to be one of the best in the country, but still. It was so great.
Mostly I'm just bragging.

there's a bullshit nationally mandated act that says that kids who can't pass the test don't get grade promotions
why the hell wouldn't they teach to the test
p.p.s. PA forums why are you being sucky and slow for me right now.
apparently it is one of the best in the nation or something
Thrifty Ice Cream is the best.
That went over quite well with the lads in the class
