[quote=Anonymous] Sadly most of the U.S. teachers come from the bottom half of their high school graduation class with SAT scores well under 1000. Entry into education colleges are just not at all competitive. One way to turn our education system around is to mandate a higher bar into the profession.[/quote] And the cited source for this piece of wisdom is? [b]And 1/2 of the American population graduated in the bottom half of their high school class[/b]. Entry into some education colleges is no competitive, just like entry into some colleges in general is not competitive. You have a lot of generalizations in your statement. [/quote] This may be my favorite DCUM quote of all time! When I was a teacher, my colleague and I used to say privately to each other, "[i]Someone[/i] has to be average." Actually, a lot of someones have to be average, even in the high-achieving environment we taught in.[/quote]
