Cause: Liberal domination of education.Another partisan hack makes the issue about left and right. There is no left or right in math, in grammar, in other langugate arts or in science (though science has been under attack by the right since the days of William Jenningns Bryan and the Scopes Trial).
Typica right wing rhetoric employs blame without any reasonable discussion of cause and effect. And of course the right is never to blame, never wrong in the small minds of CrusaderFrank and Daveboy.
Treat educators like crap and the educational system runs amok.
Why this suprises any of us I do not know.
The left has dominated education for 40+ years.
Own it.
Dood, you're not equipped to figure out what you believe, much less anyone else.Treat educators like crap and the educational system runs amok.
Why this suprises any of us I do not know.
The left has dominated education for 40+ years.
Own it.
What left?
Seriously, there is no left in this nation.
Unless, as I have no doubt you are doing, you define LEFT as anybody who does not lick the ass of BIG CAPITAL like so many (but not all thanks be to god) of you ignorant conservatives seem be doing.
Educate yourself, kid.
You've been sold a bill of goods about the people who claim to be conservatives that is an insult to the conservative philosophy, generally.

seems one does 'projects' in college now......projects? what the hell happened to classic education?

It was boring. Classic means old. Double-entry accounting is 700 years old. Why isn't that required.
How about A Fall of Moondust by Arthur C. Clarke? He talks about Plato's Allegory of the Cave.

I went to public school in the Bronx in what should be considered some neo-classic period in public education, I studied Dante in the 7th grade.
The system is sabotaged and I hope to see the day when people, especially inner city families finally realize how Democrats have totally fucked them over for generations.
You sure do lie a lot.The left has dominated education for 40+ years.

Note: Daveboy's small mind response simply add evidence to my point; the RW places blames but has not clue as to cause and effect.

Effect: Johnny can't read, but that's okay, because he FEELS good about himself.
It has not failed for those who want passive and self-denying employees. This is all by design. Their claims about caring for future hide the ulterior motive of Easy Money.The failure of public education, which has trickled up to higher education, is the greatest tragedy of the USA, by far.
Think of one of the few productive teachers, the basketball coach. Does he merely demonstrate a layup, immediately assign it as homework, and then blame the parents for not making sure their kids do it? Teachers should imitate real coaches and drill their students until they get it right. Homework is an evasion of their responsibility.The failure of public education, which has trickled up to higher education, is the greatest tragedy of the USA, by far.
Absolutely.
It's one of the greatest American ripoffs too. How much of our tax dollars do we sink into education and our kids can't read,write and do basic math? Just attempt to read any teens facebook page and you'll see what I mean. To cover up the crap education our kids are getting they dumb down the curriculum so kids pass easier. No Child left behind has only made the problem worse as educators will do just about anything to pass children who shouldn't be passed. We need to stop teaching a smorgasbord and concentrate the curriculum on the more important basics. Parents also need to crack down on thier kids. Some of the crap that goes on in the class room is insane. Parents, it's not the teachers job to do your job for you.
talk about your disingenuous op. I bet he never made it to community college
We have an intentionally sabotaged, Eastern Bloc educational system in this country; it gets progressively worse every year
seems one does 'projects' in college now......projects? what the hell happened to classic education?
i think the headline was a bit much however but then again frank is a republican and its go to horror or go home with them...and i will be glad when this bunch of losers goes home....
only 8 votes or so separate the mormon and the fucking loon

What would you have done in 4th grade if teachers had given you 1 or 2 books a month to read and said you didn't have to read them only if you wanted to.
What I found weird in grade school was that I could learn more important and interesting things in 3 days reading a sci-fi book than in 3 months of regular school but I wasn't tested on what I read on my own. My perspective of reality became completely different from what the nuns were peddling.

If kids don't do anything for their game but attend practice then they will NOT get much better. The kids who excel are the ones who go home and work out more on their own; who lift, who run, who shoot free-throws a thousand times a day on their own, who watch film of the greats - not for entertainment but for technique, who take care of their bodies and don't let loser friends drag them down. In competition, natural talent and hard work WIN. Just making it through practice alone won't cut it and that's not the coach's fault.
