Big huh? anyways, give comments on your school life
:O Do you go to a school full of elementary kids?
Anyways, I dont have any problems, cept my teachers give homework out on the weekends because they have no life.
I dont understand , why they stuff up so much homework?
WHEN THE HELL DO WE PLAY!?
An expert recently peformed an experiment that proves homework is entirely useless.
I heard on the radio that people are going against homeork. Even teachers are against it. o.o
Thats the only basic problm I have with it.
my only problem is the teachers(not all) some of em are real cool(like my history teach he rules!) but apart from that nothing
i get wat u mean
my situation is the same
I hate homework and I hate my graphics teacher he sets like 500 page assign ments for a week. and he admits to being gay. perving at little girls and malesting cats. SICK FUCKER!
People who fail the tests are usually the people that didn't do the homework, because what's on the homework is on the tests, and that's why you go OVER your homework.
how to be gay AND perv at little girls?
Arl,
NEWSFLASH!

she just.like didnt gimme marks
FLASHBACK
90% since 4th
bfore thati used to come first as there were so tests
I am studying to become a teacher. I think that homework is important, but there must NOT be too much of it. The great majority of work and learning must be done in school where kids can get a proper and professional follow-up on their work. An important aspect of the discussion of homework is that kids come from very different families with very different backgrounds and social status. Some parents may have the competence tp give their kids the help they need, but some do not. Some are not able to help their kids. That is often why kids from rich families score better than kids from poor families (in fact making this also an argument against liberalism and capitalism in general, but that is a different discussion).
The way tests often are performed in for instance the USA has also something to do with this. A lot of tests are based on the "multiple choise"-procedure. That means that the kids sit at home and read alot again and again and again and then come to the test where they just put down a checkmark on some questions with a few options. What does this mean? The kids do not really have to understand and analyze what they read, they just have to remember it for this test. The fact that the tests have options for answers makes them very leading.
The exam is also a very old-fashioned and bad form of evaluation. The fact that what you are able to put down on that paper within six or seven hours will determin your entire, or at leas a very big part, of your final grade is repulsive! And you still don't have to either understand or analyze your syllabus, it's enough to remember it long enough to belch it up on a written or oral exam.
? Why are you complaining about those things?
Here is the solution to all of those problems;
-Learn to defend your self
As for Homework;
-Suck it up and do it
How immature of you people to complain about those things. Life isn't fair, deal with it and respect the people that give you free education and free stuff in general :P. Don't go "They get it from my parent's taxes" Thats better then paying taxes and school money on top of that :P
One should indeed criticise a system that one think is not good enough. If everyone just shut up and accepted everything nothing would ever get better. As for my part I pay taxes to fund the schools and healthcare and everything else. A good school is not cheap, but quality definitly comes before quantity in my eyes.
School sucks...
I have to balence a job and school and ACDEC. I have a job so I can pay for my lunch and for my phone because my parents wont pay for either. I can't cancel my phone service because it will cost like 250USD to cancel.
I have seven classes this year, so basicly no time for computers <= life blows
The life of right-wing politics, my friend.
I think they should at least HELP, you know?
My school once taught four years of C++ and two of java... now we'll be lucky if they dont cut VBI. I've already taken all 3 classes worth taking and now my senior year is void of computer classes. Its so lame
SHE DIDNT INCREASE MY MARKS!
like i was 11th rank from 4th, now im gonna be 10th maybe, im getting good, but 1 mark can change it allllllll
No kidding, man. Ask about extra credit work, it could be your saving grace.
I feel so bad.
She was like "No examples allowed"
and i was like "Screw you"
But im over it, because i keep laughing in skewl

I agree, but these people are critisiing it the wrong way. They want to make it worse by taking away homework and lessen school time.
I hate school too but you have to learn somewhere. USA is so behind.
Me for my part would rather remove homework entirely, and increase schooltime.
Homework is proven to be 100 percent useless in most cases. Therefore, I totally agree with Merte. More School time = less review =more work finished in class = shorter school year?
Absolutely no shorter school year. But more teachers would have to be hired.
arrowone, read what you wrote, it doesn't make sense, I also would like the source for your statement :)
No, don't increase school time, school is boring. It doesn't make it any better, I'll just sleep in class. Homework is there so you can learn to study. You should always review what you learn, unless you are a very good learner, which is hardly the case for most.
School is boring and not a very good learning place for me. I rather listen to music and do homework. If your teachers grade homework for rights and wrongs, then they need to go to hell, because that defeats the whole purpose of a homework, which is to help you study. My teachers grade it on if I do it or not, except for my math teacher.
Mine too, really. They finally figured that much out. And it is literally proven useless by certain experts.
And I'll explain my theory later.
It is not a matter of not reviewing what you learn. You are of course going to do work, but at school in stead of at home. That way, if you are stuck at something, you can get help from a teach who can help you instead of asking your mother or father that do not understand it anymore than you do. I do ofcourse speak of school at lower levels, like 1st to 10th grade.
Parents are so useless when it comes to school work... And when they don't know, they feed you the 'we weren't taught this when I was your age' line.
Or the, "you need to learn this on your own", line.
WEll, all thats ok, but my exams are starting wish me luck :-[
