[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm hoping my child's teacher is using his computer time in class to be looking for another job.  It is no surprise that kids are failing county finals when teachers are not teaching to the end. [/quote]

Exactly. It is shocking that teachers who complain about "teaching to the test" don't use that time to give creative lessons. Meanwhile, the rest of the world's educated elites pass us by....looks like I'll be moving or digging deep for private school.[/quote]

Oh, I don't know. I graduated from a fancy prep school in the '90s and in our AP classes at least, we all (including the teacher) had a pretty relaxed attitude about things after the long hard run-up to the exam. I remember moving classes outside sometimes, watching movies that were vaguely linked to our subject, class discussions devolving into chit chat, etc. The extensive time off for testing is a separate issue, but in terms of chilling out post-APs, I think that's a time-honored tradition.[/quote]
