Wooooooooo..... that hit a nerve!
Gaynz probably has an order restricting him to remain at least 100 yards
from any children!
See Gaynz... that's your problem... you associate children with sex....
while the rest of us associate children as the result of sex.

In your parlance, that's a pedofile or a homosexual. So, I answered in
kind. It's none of your business how many children I've parented.

No, it's the parents who must inspire the child. The teacher is
supposed to support the enthusiasm and open up even more pathways to
knowledge.

If a teacher can't inspire the will to learn in their students.....
they have failed at their profession.
Damn it all... now I'm starting to consider that maybe my grade 9
education isn't sufficient.
Mind you it never seems to bother me when I'm directing an engineer
on how to his job.

Reading your story only emphasizes how tragic the educational
blunders of G.W.Bush truly are. In America's vocational high
schools, students much like you were, kids who've made a career out
of daydreaming instead of participating in the classroom
activities, are given a second chance to learn in a way that is not
at the bottom of Bloom's Taxonomy (rote). Vocational teachers look
beyond the corruption of a public school system that would use it's
technical annex as a dumping ground for the learning disabled, the
trouble makers, and in general, young malcontents.
We take what they consider to be trash, and we re-awaken them,
challenge them, polish them into productive, self-respecting gems.
For many of our students, the vo-tech allows them to get a high
school diploma AND real skills they can use. Our kids show their
genius every day.
Consider one welding student I know. For his senior project he
re-created a few blocks of Manhattan around ground-zero. He
fabricated all the buildings using stainless steel, except for the
twin towers, which he made using mild steel. The entire piece sits
under a spotlight in the school's front-yard. As we watch the
towers rust and disintegrate, we are reminded daily of the tragedy
of 911. People pull into our parking lot and stare contemplatively
at the project. It makes a person think. This kid took what he
learned about metals and welding techniques, and integrated that
with what he felt in his heart. The result is magnificent and deep.
And to think, this kid wanted to quit school because people like
our president told him he was a failure because he couldn't write a
flowery essay to describe his ideas!
Thanks to the Bush's standardized testing policies, traditional
high schools are sending swarms of kids who perform poorly on these
written tests to the full curriculum vo-techs, so their poor test
scores can cause the vo-techs to get Bush's public spanking instead
of the sending school. These tests don't acknowledge the genius of
the kid who is staring out the window and germinating the seeds of
a success that is not based on pedantic learning.
We have PhDs, engineers, nurses, and professionals from many walks
of life on staff, guiding these students and giving them new
motivation to learn fundamentals (show them why they need to know
math and science). When kids find a reason for abstract thinking,
they work harder to learn those skills as well.
And these are the schools that Bush wants to close. He calls our
kids "shoe makers" I believe. He is a fool! He has no clue what
level of technology our kids are achieving. From bio-technology to
CNC programming, from masonry to hvac to roofing, from engineering
to advertising, our kids are blossoming into productive
citizenship! What they're not doing is repairing shoes, what they
are doing is building smart robots, producing detailed
architectural drawings, and programming emission systems to improve
air quality and gas mileage.
Go ahead Bush, close the schools that are helping our challenging
but nonetheless brilliant kids. Send the money to Iraq so they can
have the things you want to deny American kids!
The only thing that scares me more than this jerk-off's ideas about
schools is the fact that he now wants to apply the same
"privatization" mentality to social security. That's really what
this is all about isn't it? Privatize everything so business in
America can do what it will with and to the American people.
Nothing personal, it's just business. That's why it's important
that Bush cause the collapse of public schools and then blame them
for it. If it all goes well, each family can find a way to pay for
the education of their kids. If they can't afford it, screw 'em.
It's important that social security be deemed a failure too; find a
way to retire without it all you civil servants!
In the end, the only thing Bush won't privatize will be the IRS.
Scout. Phew!

First-We must have a dream that motivates us. No one has ever
achieved
anything without a dream attached to a burning desire.
Second-We must learn how-to-learn. In school, we learn how to
memorize or
be taught. Learning how to learn frees our dependency on others
for
knowledge.
Third-We must learn from failure and learn how to bounce back
from
failure. No one ever succeed without failure. In the classroom,
failure is a
no-no.
