I don't mean to trivialize the extent to which labor is getting squeezed by the admins here, and that's definitely your arena.Smart kids find a way.
Getting rid of AP math classes won't make or break them.
Are top level American tech universities wanting for applicants?
Don't tell anyone a secret that all teachers learn: You don't really need to teach smart kids.
It's the dummies that eat up your resources.
On and interesting side note, they got rid of developmental writing and math classes at the JC and State colleges in CA.
So the dumb kids are taking a hit too.
This is a bigger change in education for the worst. The people who are in a tizzy about AP math getting abolished should be worried about that.
No one gets that this is a move on (labour) the teachers by management (the admins).
I did put up a fight when the knee first came down on my neck.I mean if this is a ploy to squeeze Autoprax, why isn't Autoprax manning the fckn barricade with Sharkbiscuit and ifallalot and saying f--k this noise?
Very few 1%'ers. Equity can been seen almost everywhere.Huh? North Korea, success?
I certainly disagree. The purpose is for brain development. To make your brain work better. Be smarter. Are you going to use all the push ups on a job resume?fine by me. why make the kids who dont want to learn algebra learn it? its useless. i had to take a bagillion classes in college and high school., all this algebra, geometry and statistics, for a film degree. i use none of it now. If people want to seek out a higher education of math prior to college theres avenues for them to learn it.
That's code for "We're all gonna adopt a certain philosophy and if you don't like it you can GTFO"I knew we were in trouble when the President of the college said we are all part of a community, part of a family.
I work with people who left when the hammer came down. They just went to other schools and it's more of the same.That's code for "We're all gonna adopt a certain philosophy and if you don't like it you can GTFO"
Who knew Sartre would know what a Gromsdad is
Education administrators at all levels are locked in a battle royale to see who is the most woke, actual education of students notwithstanding.I work with people who left when the hammer came down. They just went to other schools and it's more of the same.
I am so close to the end.
I won't get evaluated for another 3 years so I can just do my thing and go and I will have managed to put in a full career.
I know quite a few people who have a work trauma at 40 and they stop working, riding on the coat tails of the spouse or the state.
I didn't want to do that. Could not do that.
no pushups but i wouldnt put my math accolades on my resume eitherI certainly disagree. The purpose is for brain development. To make your brain work better. Be smarter. Are you going to use all the push ups on a job resume?
Thats exactly my point. Its going to be apparent.no pushups but i wouldnt put my math accolades on my resume either
3 years from now will be interesting. The CRT battle is starting to heat up. On one hand it's so entrenched in rank & file admins that it might be a foregone conclusion. On the other hand tons of parents and the occasional teacher are starting to blow the whistle on this retrograde ideology. It's not a Fox News conspiracy theory anymore.I work with people who left when the hammer came down. They just went to other schools and it's more of the same.

Yes, we did. If you didn't pass some required classes, you did not advance to next year or graduate.And yet your generation didn't even sniff calculus until college.
Did you even have final exams in middle/high school?
Teaching is hard.Smart kids find a way.
