What Keeps Teachers Teaching

Submitted by Tristan (not verified) on January 17, 2008 - 08:53.

I have often thought that one radical way to change educationi is to make is voluntary. Rather than force students to attend school have them attend when the work force tells them that they cannot read and it is important. It appears to me that school is scene as an obligation and not a privilege. Politicians and the media speak about the wealthy having better access to education; not so, they just have a better perspective as to the importance of education. I would pose a national dialog include making education itself something that should be respected and those that provide it will earn the respect desired.
