Well then we don't need the teachers. Just give the kid the book and send them home. That is basically what is going on now except we are paying teachers (at least in California), $70,000 a year to do nothing for 8 months (given they get more vacation than anyone on the planet aside from the President). They just
pass kids, graduate them with high school diplomas while being
functionally illiterate. In NY 80% are ill-prepared for college work and in California 70-85% need remedial math and English work. What were teachers doing for those 12 years they had these kids? 1% sure. 5% perhaps; you have kids that slip through. But 70%? 80%? Teachers aren't teaching any more.
Forget the iPads, forget the student issued computers, forget the Internetz, forget all that nonsense and get back to basics. Open a book, teach what is in the book, enforce common core so that idiotic teachers can't waste time going off on mindless tangents. No $800 gadgets needed.
