Yeah, but at least our kids have REALLY HIGH SELF ESTEEM! And we're REALLY CAREFUL not to HURT THEIR FEELINGS! That's what matters!
Confident Idiots: American Students Growing More Confident, Less Capable
.
My kids went to a primary school that emphsized self confidence. They are much more confident than many of their peers, and they do very well in academics because of their confidence. Their confidence really helps them to improve in the subjects that they are weaker in. I have taught primary school, secondary school and have lectured on the university level, and I can tell you that self confidence is very important in education.
That's all well & good but it has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with this thread.
This thread is about the liberal policy of passing students who are FAILING academically so as to not hurt them emotionally.
You morons bitch about education needing more money yet you INTENTIONALLY pass failing students.
I was replying to something that was posted about liberal approach to education. Climb out of the bottle and wake up.
