It is a fact that the educational system in America is falling extremely far behind. From my own experience with the current school systems I have recently gotten a good look sitting in on the classrooms and helping out with the students over the past year. My mother is a third grade teacher for inner-city Baltimore and with a first hand look at the slow decline of the students the will to achieve and work hard to earn a grade is slowly fading. The profanity used by just third graders and their constant references to Jersey Shore are quite frightening. The children of society today are quickly finding the loop-holes in our educational system with excuses for not working hard and having parents continuously make excuse for their children behavior instead of forcing them to work to their full potential.
The Decline and Fall of American Education
I found an article which talked about how equity is a key component to why our educational system is becoming inferior. And i very much agree! Children are beginning to be spoon fed their homework and assignment and teachers are having to make specific ways to fix each students laziness rather than everyone working hard to achieve. The equality in many cases is taking away from the students who are trying to learn and be challenged, but are set behind because of their fellow students misbehaving.
That article is right. Why are we not more concerned. I have been looking around the web and it seems like America is not the only country that is noticing our lack of skill in the education area and that is kind of embarrassing.
ReplyDeleteJersey Shore should never be talked about at all.. let alone by a third grader. That show is all reality tv and no good for our future students.
