[quote=Anonymous]DCPS insists that students participate in group learning activities, but in most cases they refuse to supply the tables and chairs needed to facilitate group learning activities. Teachers find themselves between a rock and a hard place. In order to teach effectively they are required to include group work in their lesson plans. The only problem is that there are very few tables and chairs available to facilitate these activities. In order to conform and to prevent themselves from being fired, many have purchased their own tables and chairs. Also, the vast majority of DCPS teachers who have LCD projectors and other indispensable technology in their classrooms have had to purchase those expensive teaching tools themselves as well. Recently I've heard that TFAer's in Baltimore even have to buy duct tape for their students. [/quote]
