Quick Response: Chapter Three

Chapter Three:

I really related to the very beginning when the student was saying that teacher's needed to keep their class disciplined and in order because otherwise the student automatically felt as if it was a waste of time. Personally, I hate classes where the teacher allows a lot of unporductive time because I feel as if it is wasting my time. If I have made the effort to be there then I expect the teacher/professor to put in the adequate planning time so that I get the most out of it. In the schools that is what has frustrated me that most about block scheduling is that at least with my teacher there is downtime at the end of every class in which she allows students to sit and not do anything productive. For me it is frustrating because in almost every case the students have things to work on and I feel that the oppotunity could be used to do other things with the students, taking the opportunity to learn new things, etc.
