[QUOTE=jjsullivan;17538655]Anyways guys, Obama did say that he feels that students do not spend enough time the classroom, I think quite the contrary to this. And also that it is not enough to face the challenges in America.[/QUOTE] Nah, I used to have 1:30 periods. learned a lot, enjoyed the classes and course work. was good. Now I have 55 minute periods, but more classes. Don't have enough time to actually learn enough and the class work piles on with the extra classes. Longer periods with less classes is the way to go.

[QUOTE=DrVivi;17537352]This is like band-aid on a broken leg. We should be focusing on increasing the education of the teachers and different style of teaching methods then extending an already broken education system.[/QUOTE] Obama: Oh yeah! That's great idea! Let me just call up the congress and tell them abou- America: WTF NO SPENDING THIS RECESSION FUK YOOO NOBAMA
I don't think he's considering how the older kids will probably no longer have jobs. It's getting to the point now where it takes more than just adults to run some companies/stores. Where i work half the staff is kids.

:O Oh noes! Now you have to attend the same amount of School us British do! Oohh noes! Deal with it.
I'm fine with this if it's implemented in about 22 months.
You guys realize this is a bad move on Obama's part? Not only will it piss off a bunch of students who really won't have much say in the matter but the teachers who will have to come in and work all these extra hours and still get paid crappy pay, teachers literally won't have any vacation time to themselves and will be overworked/overstressed. Plus schools will have to hire more teachers which cuts down their money unless their a shitty ghetto school since ghetto schools filled with drop outs get more money. Either way Obama is a fucking idiot when it comes to Education. Also I only have 1 more year since it won't affect me really :D

"Boo hoo I have to go to school just like everyone else." Poor children in Africa would be fucking ecstatic to go to school.
Good thing I got outta there already.

Wah wah wah your xbox playing and cheetos eating vacation is cut short, tough luck.

Gutted.

This is a stupid idea to be honest, they should focus on the quality of education as a whole, not the number of days you're in there. Back when I was in school, the last month was basically watching movies and having a constant circlejerk during classes, you'd only extend that.

[QUOTE=jjsullivan;17539104]Do not feed the troll[/QUOTE] Your doing child psychology wrong
[QUOTE=evilking1;17538970]Wah wah wah your xbox playing and cheetos eating vacation is cut short, tough luck.[/QUOTE] Heh, as much as I agree with you on that one, the concept of extending the semester to improve our education is fucking stupid. Also it'd suck for juniors/seniors because they take useless classes just to get the hell out of there.
