I agree with the first part, but unfortunately being failed in school is probably part of why we're here. It leads to lower student happiness and worse ongoing grades (source: partner is a pre-service teacher)
I disagree. I’ve even been told that marking in a red pen hurts people’s feelings. Oh well, feelings gotta be hurt then to prepare people to live in civilized society because being all touchy feels ain’t working.
Or require a minimum education level to be able to vote.
That's nice that you have an opinion.
Unfortunately I dont care if you disagree, as there is plenty of scientific literature which supports the stance of modern school boards.
Try getting out of your 'touchy feels' about reality and read a book sometime.
Edit: for the reference of anyone in the future, despite the tone of my message, the intent was not to put down their opinion, but rather to provide non-anecdotal evidence for my own
lol. It’s cute that you think your opinion is more valid than mine. Wonder which of us has been teaching for 25 years.
But I don’t debate idiots. I block them. Bye.
