The 'Do over generation set to experience dead lock shock' article shows a good change in Canada's education.
In my opinion, in the 1990's, the children or students my age were less productive in school, and didn't learn enough at school, to the point that they weren't prepared for University, reality, the working world, or their own future. I don't think that the students around my age, up to High school had enough discipline, or learned responsibility either.
I agree with the article's message, that teachers should be allowed to deduct marks for late or missed assignments. I don't think it was fair to the High school students who'd worked hard to achieve, and brought assignments on time, just to almost get penalized. It was definitely making no sense when I read that students got away with missing assignments, and getting a credit still, when they'd missed almost twenty percent of class!

Thank you for your response Sabrina.
ReplyDeleteThis was supposed to be in separate paragraphs. Each point you make (not being prepared for the real world, having discipline, etc) should each have had their own paragraph.
With the way you have written it here you don't get to go into any great detail about any of your points, which more or less invalidates them.
