Let's just put them all in jail 24/7
This article just fired me up! It seems that our new Secretary of Education thinks that the only way we can prepare our students to compete on a global level is to put them in school for 6 to 7 days a week. Why is it that those who know little about education think that the only way to get better is to spend more time trying to force feed the students? How about allowing the teachers to throw out all of the excess teaching to the test and allow them to put passion back into teaching? It seems that when teachers were allowed to teach passionately we produced students who led the world in inventions, beat everyone to the moon and became the richest nation in the world.
