A. And where do you get the idea that educators fail to recognize the impact of working mothers and day care? Policymakers maybe, but I don't think educators ignore the impact. Its one area that they acknowledge and try to understand in dealing with young kids and their problems.

Some educators object to the use of tools such as test generators and worksheet generators, Why?
Q. Some educators object to the use of tools such as test generators and worksheet generators, saying that they encourage teachers to use technology to maintain current methods, rather than using technology in more innovative ways. What case can you make for keeping software tools like these in classrooms?
Asked by Abraham P - Sun Oct 14 00:26:05 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I think these tools can be abused, just like anything else. Lazy teachers can use them to produce endless worksheets for their students instead of doing other activities. They can also be used to make tests that are easy to grade, but not necessarily the best way to assess knowledge. If they're used in moderation, these kinds of tools can free up time for teachers to do more research on topics, lesson planning, etc. They don't have to spend so much time doing mundane things like making tests/worksheets/etc.

For educators: Have there ever been any cultural differences between you and your students?
Q. I work as a Spanish tutor at a college. Yesterday I had a student who didn't know what an eggplant was! She was a young, lower-income black woman, but I was still quite surprised by the fact that she didn't know what an eggplant was, because I thought that everyone did. Unfortunately, I think that I inadvertently offended her, because I involuntarily showed my astonishment. Have you ever had any issues with cultural differences between you and your students? If so, what were they and how did you deal with them?

I don't want to make you mad but it just seems to me that most men are lazy and just don't want to do this, even though they are suppose to. Lots of men don't take care of their kids at home, leaving everything to their mother. A mother cant' provide the things that a father can. Then, a new generation of young men grow up being even lazier and sorrier than the ones before them, and people wonder why. DUH!!!
