this is not just happening in american schools... i dnt see why the emphasis is based on u.s.a schools when its probably worldwide by now! good video tho. thanks
Privatize the schools, bring back mandatory Christian prayer in all classrooms, bring back the paddle, bring back the draft, reinstate the Hayes code for movies and tv, ban rock and rap music. Problem solved.
It sounds like a lot of people in here are teachers or wish they were and criticizing this video because they don't want to feel that they are teaching wrong but that they are super smart and they teach the way they do because they choose to. You were taught to teach the way you do, you just don't realize it.
I concur with Houshalter. This person either hasn't been in a public school or is
intentionally distorting facts. For example, phonics are taught but since English has more than one root language and has many phonetic inconsistencies, (rough, through, though, cough > 4 different vowel sounds for same spelling) other methods are also used. 2. Kids have to memorize dialogues, songs,
plays, alphabets, etc. As usual these attack the public schools videos are
@MrRandyDick as a pupil of public schools for over twelve years (primary and secondary) i believe everything in this video is true and clear for all to see.. i dont know if you are a teacher or just a wanna be, but these are not lies!! infact very far form it. i've shared this video and many others like it and the majority of my friends and the people they have shasred it with all believe to be true too!! ive learnt a heck of a lot more since leaving school...
Most of this simply isn't true. Education is a science. There are many different promising methods of teaching, managing the educational system, and what ciriculumn should be taught. Everybody, including the makers of this video, assumes that their opinion on which is best, is the right one and we should go from there. HOLD ON! The results of each method are easy enough to test, but no one wants to do it. Privatizing and more choice is a start.
An upstate NY teacher told me: student test results are improving a lot, and she means really a lot. Awesome. Wait: Reason is not that kids became smarter and that schools became better, reason is the tests were made easier.
Is that a bad thing? Yes, unless you are a politician and want to show results.
Have you ever heard of the PISA Study? When Germany was ranked in the middle there was an outcry in the whole country, education became a priority, Germany improved a lot in the next PISA
Those are awful ideas indeed, and they are firmly at work in school system. It would take decades to overcome them. It's too messed up. I will homeschool.

test, not the US. Hardly anyone knows about PISA in the US.
PISA is a standardized test for students in 49 countries, comparing the outcomes.

HA! This is EXACTLY what is going on in the failing school that I teach in. Shame on all of us for going along with it.
