Changing Children’s Lives

A comment to “Doing Our Levelling Best” claims that better teaching methods won’t help disadvantaged children do better in school. This short video suggests otherwise.

Comments

You sure don’t need to convince those who have been through the system and are now seeing their children through the system.

Methods matter plenty! Any self-respected educator will tell you that. The others? Blame it on everything but methods that were never taught them to begin with and now can’t account for the struggle to help children succeed.

Those who would keep insisting that poor children can’t learn make a very troubling statement about public education. You remember the one that was supposed to be the great equalizer and bring all children who show up at their door rise up with confidence to follow there dreams?

Enter the “axis of excuses”.

I agree.  Public education isn’t working anymore, and it’s hurting most those whom it was originally put in place to give opportunities to—the underpriviledged.
