Polish or American Education? [180]
with no in-depth assessment and exam in individual subjects,
Not true Atch as many high schools allow students to take a college classes if they excel in a certain subject.
By the time they enter college they have already completed their first year in a subject or two.
you had to cram for an exam in grammar and vocab. That shouldn't be the case
I will repeat it again, "A teaching degree is one of the easiest degree's that there is to obtain" so many of the not so sharp college students choose such a degree just so they can graduate from a college with a diploma of some kind.
A teaching degree is not much more then a liberal arts degree if you were to check out the required curriculums.
And the classes for a liberal arts degree are basically very general like advanced reading, art, creative writing, basic arithmetic and the soft classes.
It requires no advanced chemistry, no algebra, no trigonometry, only basic physical sciences compared to a bachelors of science degree.
Add a teaching degree with no common sense and what do we have teaching our children today........know it all babysitters that are there to pick up their paycheck so do you really expect a student to be well spoken or find Poland on a map.
In the USA third level students basically spend the first two years of an undergraduate degree completing their general education and trying to figure out what they might be able to 'major' in for the remainder of the degree.
Exactly and when they are at a dead end after their first two years and are forced to declare a degree they choose an education degree because not only is it the easiest to obtain but they don't want to graduate from college with a useless liberal arts degree which is embarrassing.
Atch, would you want any of the self proclaimed teachers on this forum teaching your children ?
Besides you and Roz I know I certainly would not.
