education research

What I read in the book is that the government would hire more teachers but they found out that hiring teachers with advanced degrees would not improve schooling. Big budgets would not boost achievement. The problem that the students had was their parental influential, and not the teachers. The book was coming with all this different reasons why the students were not in the expected level for their education. The parents are one of the main points why students are such low in their education. I found this article that has a little bit of common with what the book mentioned. This article talk about that the condition of the school is not the problem that is influencing the students learning. It mentions that the district officials have replaced the school principal and hired teaching coaches for professional development, and that the improvement was not enough. This shows that the teachers and the school environment have nothing to do with the lack of the students’ knowledge. http://www.insidebayarea.com/ci_14634736 Another thing that they both have in common is that there is a lack of parent involvement was one of the most serious school problems. Among public school principals, poverty was described as a serious problem as often as lack of parent involvement. Something that they have in common is that the book mentioned that the problem with kids not learning was because the children did not have the right equipment, but because children do not have appropriate equipment, there are no variables to be observed. The website mentions that effective classroom managers create orderly, safe environments where students feel valued and comfortable. In their rooms as almost everywhere in Camden, lack of funds creates a shortage of materials. Half the children in the classroom have no texts. http://nces.ed.gov/pubs93/web/93149.asp There is a lot of poverty in this country. The book mentions that the president is not doing what he said before he was elected; the only thing he said was just compromises but no action. He speaks of his goals and they sound very fine. He mentions preschool education early childhood. Where is the money? Many parents have children coming to kindergarten or to first grade who are starting out three years delayed in their development. Something that the book and the research is that they are mentioning the size of the classes does matter. Teachers like having small classes. Students that report on teachers attitudes about small classes have found very positive responses from educators. Teachers believe they cover more content in greater depth and have fewer discipline problems with small classes. The book said that in order to get these kids to pass the tests, they’ve got to be divided up according to their previous test results. http://www.districtadministration.com/article/does-class-size-really-matter
