[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe we need to adopt the model that Finland has. They attract the best of the best and pay for their education instead of saddling them with debt. When they are finished school, those who made it through are given a very good salary to teach. Start with the best instead of firing the crappy ones from the bottom.[/quote] [b]That's fine if you are okay with firing all the existing teachers and replacing them with the best. [/b] There is no way that the average teacher teaching today is the "best". When I went to college, I can say 100% that education was known as the easy major too.[/quote] No, this does not logically follow. That's like saying, "If we want doctors who go into medicine because they want to help people, we need to get rid of all of the doctors, because a lot of current doctors went into medicine because they wanted to make a lot of money." First you change the incentive, then the behavior changes.[/quote]
