**sigh**
Gosh. Education sucks. Get the heck out of school! OMGosh! It is so very horrible, I am so glad that some have gotten through it alive! This will be THE most difficult thing you will EVER have to face in your life. We should all just get rid of those horrid bastions of education. Making up horrid guidelines to operate, and then not allow any humanity to show when needed. How awful! How unusual? Wait, what?
What are we going to do? Oh, yeah, let’s just leave them open for the thousands of individuals who leave their home countries to travel to the US to study and get various degrees and training in areas of study. Then they won’t have to go home and take the knowledge they gained where it will have the greatest effect. Just send all those nasty educational institutions elsewhere, like to Iceland, or perhaps Sweden- no wait- Canada! Then the Canadians can die from stress instead of us. When we go to our real-life jobs, everyone will treat us so much better.
I wish.
Boy did I screw that up!
Those lucky Canadians!
As far as our nationwide educational scoring compared to some other nations’ higher averages… How to explain….
Some countries are considered off the charts with their student’s scores when comparing their testing and educational scores to that of the students from the US.
Pppssssttttt- got a trick to tell you about how we can increase OUR student’s scores too!
Are you ready?
Make them study 24/7? Brain steroids? Hold classes and make their Mommies attend for the entire nine month gestation?
Euw. No.
Let’s take our students in and around the sixth grade level. Ascertain whether their grade scores are better suited for more educational instruction and if so- push them onwards and upwards. Those students who’s scores are not quite good enough to reach a high ‘set standard’, let’s vear them off and move them along a more-vocationally related study pathway.
Would you want your future decided at that age?
OK. So when the ‘best of the best’ scores are issued and compared to those from the US…who puts Everyone through 12 years of education (eventually to make their own choices concerning their futures.)
All scores. All students.
What the freakin’ hell are we thinking? ALL kids?
Not an elite group of excellent students?
You don’t get any scores from those kids put on the vocational track.
Funny, you never hear about them….
Thank you. I needed to let people realize just how gawd-awful education in the US really is!!!! Or how sub-parr our test scores fall. Stupid Americans, right?
No.
