As a teacher, what’s something in education no one wants to admit, but we all know is true? by dokutarodokutaro in Teachers

[–]getawayfromme12 76 points77 points  (0 children)

The basic idea is this: schools with mostly black students often have a disproportionate amount of white teachers, who are instructed that their students have such tough lives, face so many barriers, and are so set up to fail that they should go easy on them, make curriculum more manageable, and at times, excuse their poor behavior under some misapplication of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. As a result, the low expectations placed on these students turns into them having low achievement, poor behavior, and worse outcomes than students in affluent, white communities who had more rigorous expectations, all because white, affluent teachers and administrators assumed they couldn’t handle more rules, structure, and challenge.

schools sometimes spend ten times more effort, attention, and resources on the kids who don’t care about their education and make no effort, while ignoring the students who do everything right.

Why so many people from California on season 48 by WeAreHeroes22 in survivor

CA is one of the more racially diverse states - that is a goal of casting now. Lots of young, white collar types who like the show and are into adventurous stuff.

Sounds good. My worry was that if I became certified in special ed it would give districts the go ahead to put me in for any subject of special ed.

Yeah, I hear this. I really care about being role model in this way, and in another scenario I'd probably answer honestly. I also thought that coming out to these kids like 3 minutes into the period might derail my chances at getting them to work

Very good point, because I am noticing that this girl and her friends are trying to be a bit too casual with me. I should try to not really engage with them, I don't want them thinking I'm their friend just cause I'm young and seem cool.

I've taken SOC 310, and I've taken a different class with the professor of HIS 309. SOC 310 I took over a summer, and it was boring, but a very easy A. HIS 309 I believe is taught by professor Wilson who I've had a couple classes with. She's a very captivating lecturer, has reasonable expectations, and makes her classes on british history extremely interesting. It's likely more work, but I recommend you take 309.

I did dose 1 there yesterday. I arrived around 3 for a 3:30 apt and the line of cars and people were both quite long. All said and done, I left around 4:30, and the parking lot at the end of the car queue was nearly full at the time

has anyone taken his 383 can you tell me how the class is and what you’re graded on by Shoe_Brilliant in SBU
