Making Education Great Again...

Republicans think education is a BS in Bible Study.

No, really.
 
The strategy is simply enough: get Liberals out of it.



1. The touchy-feely self-esteem that Liberals have instituted in place of passing and failing has doomed learning in this country. Just look at the scores our children achieve in international competition.

a. “A 1989 study of mathematical skills compared students in eight different countries. American students ranked lowest in mathematical competence and Korean students ranked highest. But the researchers also asked students to rate how good they were at mathematics. The Americans ranked highest in self-judged mathematical ability, while the Koreans ranked lowest….There is no evidence that high self-esteem reliably causes anything.” http://www.catholiceducation.org/articles/education/ed0001.html



2. In fact, feeling good is so central to Liberalism, that it is a higher value than truth. The Left has changed American school textbooks from books attempting to convey history to books attempting to make women and members of select minorities feel good about themselves. Democrat lawmakers pass laws demanding that textbooks be rewritten to include more Democrat Party blocs. California Gay Textbooks: Proposal Would Require LGBT Lessons In Schools | HuffPost

a. “'History should be honest,' Gov. Jerry Brown says in signing the state law, which had sparked hot debate among legislators.... making California the first state to require that school textbooks and history lessons include the contributions of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans.State laws: New state law requires textbooks to include gays' achievements




3. To see what we're up against, I commend an article in the current Brooklyn Daily,
"China syndrome: Whose kids get a better education?"
China syndrome: Whose kids get a better education?

"...Lenora Chu and her family arrived in Shanghai from the United States in 2010,...She spent the next seven years examining not just her young son’s education, but the whole Chinese educational system, comparing it with her own American upbringing and what’s happening in our schools today.

4. In China, education is .... a sorting mechanism — you advance to the next level of schooling based on a test score,” said Chu. The teachers are very strict from the get-go. One day, her preschooler came home from school with shiny red star stuck to his forehead.

“What do you get a red star for?” she asks in the book. “Do you get it if you run fast?”

Her son, Rainey, laughed He got it, of course, for sitting still. Chu was outraged. Her son was just three!


5. “Why do you sit? Do they make you sit at school? Do you have to sit?” Her husband, National Public Radio’s China correspondent Rob Schmitz, said is sounded as if she was asking, “Are your human rights being violated?”
But learning to sit still doesn’t violate any U.N. conventions.


6. And neither did what happened next. Rainey told his mom that four times that day he had found egg in his mouth — the food he detested most. How did it get there, Chu asked? The teacher put it in, because eggs are an important food. Three times he cried and spit it out. The fourth time, he swallowed.

And today he likes eggs."




During the civil rights movement, the by-word was 'keep your eye on the prize'....

We should remember that motto.
Become the solution. Become a teacher.


But I am.

You're in my classroom.

Not all students are ready to accept learning, the truth.
But I never expect to reach 100%...

Here's a little secret: look at the statistics under the 'Forum' and you'll find that 10 times as many read a thread as post in it.
My hope is that many of those readers notice that everything I post is linked, sourced and provides quotes that they can check.
....and I am never wrong.

The will see material that government schooling hides.


Sadly, I'll have to fail you.
Summer school.....again.
Nope, get your teaching credential...get into the classroom....be the change. Or.......just hide behind your keyboard and cut and paste and cut and paste and cut and paste all the time like you've been doing.



As anyone can see from your attempts, I am having quite an effect.

And, as far as ever following the orders of any Leftist.....i.e.., you.....
…I am immovable, like General Jackson’s Virginians at First Manassas: a veritable stone wall.

If you only had an acquaintance with history…you’d understand the reference.

.... It is very sad to see no history being taught. Not to Bully is taught instead. ......
Not true.
Why would somebody reply with nothing more than a CONTRADICTION? Cause they are a jerk? Cause they are ignorant or dumb? Or they know they must lie to further the Socialist/Marxist propaganda. I doubt the latter, beings that somebody fighting for an ideology typically has a bit of intelligence. Either way, I can reference textbooks provided to my children who are in public school.

What can Unkontrary reference?

And? You SEE nothing there.


Anything there to ‘trigger’ you?







Well?

23 + years of teaching. When was the last time you set foot in a classroom? You keep running and hiding from this question.
Technically, the only person hiding, and or running is yourself.
I have posted pictures from two history textbooks, proving exactly what I have said, and establishing that I am not the running simply running their mouth.

I was in the classroom on Tuesday, which is pretty irrelevant when I have to help, review, and sign homework assignments.

I take an active role in education.

And as I have shown, what I have said, comes straight from our Common Core classrooms.


What is it you imagine those pictures show?

So, you were in the classroom for what, 20 minutes?

Some days it is 4 hours. Not a day goes by that I am not participating in public school education. Still can't do anything but troll and bury the comments with your posts that add nothing to the thread?

The fact is, in the 6th grade, since school has started until the foreseeable future. No history is taught, instead they have done nothing but study, bullying.

Further, in the 5th grade, children are taught to add twice/subtract once, to do simple subtraction.

Abigail Adams is taught to be a founding father, fighting for Women's rights when she did nothing more than joke with her husband.

It is sad what the Democrats have done to our school. Which according to the Democrats, is a gift given for free, to the students, as our rights are a gift given to us by our government. Given for free!

Sad is our education system.
Pathetic are those who argue that what is happening is not.

The page posted did not say Abigail Adams was a founding father. It said she was a wife and mother.

Well?
 
So, just to update the thread: History IS being taught in public schools, and despite the fact that there are an awful lot of teachers who lean very liberal, there is NO systemic "indoctrination" going on beyond the insidious ways that liberalism has exerted its corrosive effect on society over the past 60 years.
