Rough Draft Why do schools force students to learn topics that they don 't want to learn? Students should be allowed to choose the topics that they want to learn and not the topics the school wants them to learn. Students would be more attentive and creative if they were able to choose their own classes because they would feel more responsible since they choose their own class. Multiple students are punished for being bad at a class like being grounded or getting a detention. Instead of being punished if students where to pick their own classes they could focus more on the class that they already like and are good at and then continue to advance in that class rather than being held back by a class that they don 't understand.
College is not important to
They would be able to keep electives and short class time. Then sometimes we can’t finish our work and we will have to ask the teacher for help and they might not be there. We need more class time so we can finish our work and have it all memorized for the next day. We also need more energy for every class so we won’t fall asleep in class.
Department of CSIE 高嘉豪 Do students have the right to cut classes in college? You would think that for students to go to school, appear in class, listen to the lectures, and just learn from the teachers is something that can't be more normal or true, and skipping classes is like breaking the laws and unforgivable. Maybe it easily applies to some of one's studying periods, elementary school, junior high, senior high, but college? I think there're lots of people who would beg to differ on this one, including me. In college, especially in this era where teachers' powerful authority and controlling are barely existing , students have much more freedom and rights, which inevitable leads to the question: "Do students have rights to skip classes?
The believing game helped me understand how life works and not become so stressed if something does not go my way. Not all teachers will teach to my specific learning style. Believing that I can do well in a class and learn from any teacher helped me not only deal with high school, but will also help me throughout college and life. The believing game does not just pertain to academic struggles, but also any obstacle one may face throughout life. I learned that changing my perspective allows me to see that sometimes things are my fault and it is myself that needs to change, not other
When Joe Clark first met his students he used pathos by telling the students who didn't get kicked out that if they do not pass the state exam they won't be welcomed back into the school. The staff had it coming for them when Joe scheduled a meeting after he found out the scores on the practice test, Joe used pathos to make the staff guilty for how poor the kids did on the test by blaming them for such low scores. Finally he used pathos to encourage his students to do well on the test, reminding them what they have been working for the whole time. Joe Clark persuaded his staff and students to work hard by using pathos to send an emotional
One thing that I would want the current eight graders to know, is that high school isn’t as bad as people set it out to be. Everyone says that it’s so hard, or so much work, but if you stay on task and pay attention in class it’s not that bad. I was one person to struggle in middle school grade wise, but since I was told that high school would be so much harder, I’ve paid a lot more attention in class and done all my work. Another thing I would tell the current eight graders, is that you don’t need friends to get through high school. It’s understandable if you want to have friends so you’re not lonely all the way through high school, but you don’t need them and its better if you don’t have them so it’s easier to pay attention in classes and get more work done
Another particularly noteworthy example Delbanco provides through his book in support of active thinking and learning, is the concept of “lateral learning”-- “the proposition that students have something important to learn from each other. (Delbanco, pg 53-54) ” This, of course, can be accomplished through debates, group discussions, and group projects. Nevertheless, what Delbanco refers to as “passive absorption” also has its time and place in the classroom. Students need the sometimes passive lectures to begin active discussions and debates.
As soon as students get in they set up their assignment’s to be check by the teacher. She walks around and check that. After that she takes attendance. After that she double checks absences with the students. Right after that she starts teaching, but before doing so, she restates classroom rules.
There is nothing wrong with protesting as long as it is kept peaceful and does not disturb the school or students inside of it. The Tinker vs. Des Moines Independent School is a case that is still reflected upon today. It is referred to in cases concerning freedom of speech. I think that when most people read about this case and look at all the fact and details they will see and agree that students of all ages should be allowed to exercise their rights at school. Schools can make decisions concerning what they want to happen and how they want people to act while on campus, but they can never decide that the people in their building are not entitled to their
Noted author, Stephen Covey offers uses the story of a bamboo plant to offer advice. The story taught me to be more patient with several stuff and try not to rush on the work the teacher assigns. For example, if the teacher is not in class on time, wait a few more minutes and do not go so far ahead on your schoolwork unless the teacher says that it is ok to do so. Patience is important in college because you do not know what might happen if you are not patient at all. Being impatient might ruin your chance to graduate college if you just think that it would be easy, well, that is not true at all.
(Not passionate about ideas and books, just want the grade. JOB) Learning how to think also influences students to find what they are passionate about, that is more then grades. Without this passion, students cannot succeed as well as they want, and be happy. This lack of passion in elite student’s starts with a ‘mutual nonaggression pact.’ is created “so students want to do as little as possible.
The professors who are giving the students C’s who don’t earn them are being bias and not being fair to non-ELS students who work for their passing grades unlike the Sooleem students are just given a passing grade. The pass-fail grading system will give the ESL students a way to work to pass just like other students while non-ELS students can go about their classes seemingly like their other classes by working for the grade they earn. The ESL students won’t get to fly by class and not work, but easily pass and give enough effort to satisfy
When you walk in the classroom, the instructor will ask you to have your notes out from the last time you were in the classroom. Instructors will guide you on how to organize thing but the rest of it is that are you willing to do your part in the classroom and outside of the classroom. As a person trying to be an organized, you can not expect miracles to happen overnight. If you become organized throughout the entire semester, it will help you for other courses that you may need to take in the future. Emma Kendrick says”Organization is a big factor when you have to turn in assignments on time because instructor do not accept late work.
Being honest, I didn’t look at any of my notecards but having them was making me feel more secure and less stressful since I shouldn’t worry that I am going to forget some concept or formula at the time of the exam. It is also very important for you to understand the material not just memorize it. Otherwise, you probably will forget most of the information right after your final exam. So much energy in this class.
