Yknow they could fix a lot getting rid of textbooks....so uh yea. Hands on shiz for the classes that need them and less teaching people to regurgitate and still missing half the facts they ought to know from history. Esp in a effort to make us history look good....when no we were awful lmao
This comment is unintentionally a really good argument for education reform
That was the point. Bc I have AuDHD and have always struggled with textbooks but no one has offered a accommodation(which most accommodations have been lackluster in how much help they provide) that worked for me. I wanted to be done with college by now, but so many things on top of the lack of hands-on stuff means I feel like I've learned absolutely nothing.
They still need to teach with something, and textbooks are expensive
Well there's a bunch of content some of my teachers have pulled from that's just as good. Hell with history it's a good idea not to have a state textbook anyway. Shiz omits so much it's unreal. Or it tries to paint times before the Civil war as the best of times despite us yknow owning people o_O
