![]() "kontiki" wrote The reason there is a "slant" to a public education is that the vast majority of teachers graduate from public schools, then go to a college or university then go right into teaching. That is inbreeding... pretty much the same way with politicians... most have never had an actual real job in their life. So teaching isn't a real job, huh? Another slap in the face to teachers. Nice. Come walk in my shoes for a week or two. You _will_ change your mind. What job would you like an English teacher to get, anyway? Not much use for people sitting around conjugating verbs, or diagraming sentence structrures. The same thing could be said for at least half of what is taught in school. Not much direct application to the real world. Anyway, much of learning is learning how to learn. Specific application comes at the job site, in most vocations. I'm not gonna argue this beyond what I have just said because those that believe in these systems will defend them forever. Meanwhile, the US continues into its slow economic and cultural decline. The current state of GA is but a symptom of this. So teaching in the public schools is responsible (even indirectly) for the decline in GA. THAT is the biggest streach I believe I have ever seen on this newsgroup, even from MX. People like to shoot the messenger but its a fact. People shoot messengers when they are full of sh*t, and so dense they don't realize they are full of sh*t. Sheesh! -- Jim in NC |
