Anybody have experience with Guild Education?
Looking to attend classes in the spring semester through my employer's education reimbursement program. Now I have never been involved with Guild Education before, so I'm wondering if you are required to do one of these kick-off calls before classes start? Also, do you constantly have to update them with information regarding your courses as you go along? I've already been through college before and never had to worry about updating anybody on how things were going, since I managed to stay focused on my own without help or advice. Thanks ahead for any answers.

I just wanted to thank everyone who responded to my article yesterday, "His Name Was Daniel." That very personal story was very difficult to write. Nearly 2000 readers in the last 24 hours, and the response has been overwhelming. I will respond to all messages, but what's most important to me is Daniel Carver, my ex-student, is remembered not for how he died, but for how he tried. His is a cautionary tale that I hope others can learn from.

Engineer School ?
Hey so I'm currently doing a DUT("Diplome Universitaire de Technologie" ,It's called like that in France) and I don't know the equivalence but it can be translated as a "Two year University Diploma" and I have two possibility at the end of this diploma , either I stop and go seek employment or I continue my studies and so go to an Engineer School but I have a few question :
I have good grades but I really feel dumb , I have no idea how I get good grades ,I learn something for the exam and then one month after I remember near nothing maybe five percent of what I have learned , is it normal or am i too dumb ?
Another question is : Can i pretend to an employment less qualified if I am overqualified ? Because some teacher said that going to an engineer school wasn't that good because there is too much people like this on the market and so they lack technicians but since I did my two year Diploma I could pretend to a technicians job even if I finish my engineer school no ?
Thanks you in advance and sorry if I am on the wrong sub reddit , I have no idea where I could post that and education was the only one I could think

Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down System
I attend a trades school in Canada.
For decades, after final examinations, students were told if they passed or failed on the spot. A proctor would use a transulcent mark sheet to grade the test to let the student know if they passed their provincially regulated exam and go drink or had to take a rewrite and hit the books.
This changed after an incident where a student was shamed by the classmates after getting a 'thumbs down'. There are many versions as to what actually happened with the student feeling shamed, but nonetheless the thumbs up/thumbs down program was cancelled. Now we have to log into a government website and check our marks.
Chaser: I wrote my test on Friday and the provincial offices are closed for the holidays. I don't get to find my mark until after January 1st!
I'm not stressing because I studied hard and did well, but I think this new policy is doing more harm than good. Also, this is trades school... if you just fell off a turnip truck and put some effort in over 8 weeks given, you'll pass 🙄
What are your thoughts?

I have never been to school or received any education at home but i am beginning to take interest in math and physics and need somewhere online (preferably free) to learn these things
Recently I have been really interested in outer space and how space shuttles are designed and function and so I decided to take it upon myself to figure out how all these things work, how the world works and all that. The only problem is I have no idea where to start, I taught myself to read and I am currently teaching myself a few programming languages but that's about all I know how to do.
So, having no prior experience with any of these subjects (or at least not in any sort of learning environment) I need somewhere to learn the absolute basics, a website, app, some YouTube videos, anything, but the thing is that it has to be free, I don't have a source of income at the moment. Any advice or links to places where I can learn these things would be greatly appreciated, all I want is to be able to function like a normal person and not freeze up whenever someone asks anything that requires the most basic of math skills.

My secondary school was extremely biased with giving grades
When I was in secondary school I noticed that between years 7 and 10 there were a couple of examples of teachers giving higher grades in certain subjects to students for no reason other than that student being viewed as more gifted or as a top student
Here are a couple:
I was put into the lowest set for PE and we did a entire term of work on leadership and creating our own group activities. I worked extremely hard and my teacher was very impressed with the work i did and told me I had a gift for it. I got the highest grade in my class which was a 5c. In the set above mine there were 30 students and the lowest anyone got was a 5b and most got level 6s (5b is better than 5c). The kid who got a 5b refused to do his final task properly and just pissed about and turned up to only 2 lessons and somehow he got higher than an entire class beneath him that turned up and did all the work
In drama we got put into several groups and these were made according to our expected grades. My group was the third group who were all expected to get level 4s, where as the top group were expected to get level 6s
In the end we made a 10 minute long performance in my group which our teacher said was her favourite performance and the head teacher who came to watch them all said it was her favourite too. The top group did a 4 minute long performance that was okay but didn’t get as good a reaction.
In the end our group got all low level fours whereas the top group still got level 6s, including a guy who literally had 3 lines in his whole performance and spent the whole thing pretending to drive a bus
Dunno if it’s just me but this all seems dodgy as fuck

I'm not sure what to think about Standards-based grading VS GPA
I have two young kids in the early grades of school. We moved to a new state a while back and I just got my child's first report card and instead of A's & B's, it's a Proficiency-Based grading system, with all the areas listed and "BEG", "DEV" and "PRO" (Beginning, Developing and Proficient) listed as results for each area.
I wasn't too concerned because I assumed this was just for 4K and maybe first or second grade or something; but then I found out that both the elementary and high-school are adapting to this new system and now I'm trying to educate myself as much as I can.
I don't want to be someone who is always stuck in the old ways of doing things without any tolerance for changes for improvement, but as this is a change to part of a system, there will obviously be varying degrees of positive and negative effects and impact on people and the various parts of the education system. For example, if there are no more letter grades or GPAs being calculated, how will this effect how colleges evaluate students and consider them for acceptance and/or scholarships, etc?
Here is the article I am looking at, but as someone with quite low intelligence and unfamiliar with the basics of education, I don't really know how to take all of this in.

Are there any legitimate online universities that aren't scammy and don't look bad? Can you double major at online schools?
Like the title says. This next year or two I will be working twice as much as I do now and I'd still like to get a degree somehow. Going to college online would be perfect for me, if I can find a legit one that isn't scammy and doesn't look bad to employers. Also wondering if you can double major at these places too?
Thanks so much in advance! :)

The Five-Paragraph Essay Must Die
Submitted December 22, 2018 at 07:28AM by LawAndMortar http://bit.ly/2LxSNEB
I am looking for advice/suggestions from teachers and students who have been involved in a flipped classroom setting.
A brief bit of background: I am not a teacher. My mom teaches several subjects, because her classes are for GED prep and college prep at a community college. She is re-writing all of her lessons to begin using the flipped classroom approach for her classes in the Spring semester. She has enlisted my help, and I am trying to learn everything I can to help make this a smooth transition for both my mom and her students.
If you are or were a student who has experienced one or more “flipped classrooms”—where the lecture and/or reading is assigned for outside of class, and assignments or projects or discussions are held in class—I would love to hear your perspective on the experience. What was effective? What was not? How do you compare it to other learning environments you’ve experienced?
For teachers who have implemented flipped classrooms, I would be glad to hear your perspectives on any or all of the following questions:
· How do you keep students attending? It seems like a lot of students might easily assume that if the learning is occurring outside the classroom anyway, then the classroom aspect may be superfluous. Do you allow them to make up assignments for missed classes? Do you draw a line, allowing it under some conditions but not in every case? Where do you draw the line? Is attendance even a problem for you?
· Along those same lines: how do you approach creating assignments/projects for class, to keep it effective and engaging? Do you include class discussion? How do you balance assignments/projects with discussion?
· If you have a high ratio of students to teachers, how do you keep the learning individualized in the classroom?
· On the homework front—how do you teach outside the classroom? Is it all videos? Do you use a combination of recorded lectures and assigned reading? How do you keep your videos concise, and still offer all the information the students will need? I know this will vary from subject to subject, but I’d be glad to hear your different approaches.
· How do you keep students accountable for doing their homework/learning outside the classroom?
· For those teaching in high-poverty areas, how do you ensure that students have access to the devices and Internet that the students will need for outside learning? Do you consider school library and computer labs which are accessible to students at lunch and after school to satisfy that need? My concern with this is that it puts a time and scheduling constraint on poorer students that more well-to-do students don’t need to worry about. Do you use apps that are accessible on smart phones? Are there grants or other resources you know of for obtaining laptops or tablets which students could “check out” from the classroom?
· For those teaching in a college or university setting, how do you address the gap in technical ability your students may have? Many of your students will be younger generation who are fully knowledgeable about their devices and how to use them, but some returning to higher education after getting their GEDs or graduating high school decades ago will be less knowledgeable. How do you make sure your less technically adept students have the skills and tools they need, while avoiding redundancy for other students?
· Both outside of class and in terms of class attendance, there is a higher level of self-accountability for students. How do you get the less-engaged students invested? I understand that this is a question that teachers face in any classroom setting, but it seems like a different question in a flipped classroom.
· Are there subjects for which the flipped classroom approach is less effective? What are the drawbacks? Do you feel that flipped classrooms are advantageous enough to be worth getting around these drawbacks? If so, what to you do to make it more workable in spite of the drawbacks, or how do you get around them?
Thanks for taking the time to read, and my mom and I both would really appreciate whatever thoughts or suggestions you all might have.

What Are Some Issues You Have With The Education System? Large Scale Ones? Small Scale Ones? Anything.
I will provide some I saw in my time obtaining a Bachelor's degree.
-
Tenure system makes professors untouchable, they play God. A professor has to sexually assault a student to be fired. Because of this I have heard some of the most unprofessional statements uttered in the college setting by college professors because they could say/do anything without represussion. "I am going to ruin your life by failing you and there is nothing you can do about it"
-
You can spend $100-200k to make $30k a year. This does not really need a description, but here goes. If NBA/NFL teams have salary caps, why do education systems not have tuition caps? Who determines why at Random State University you need to pay $100-200k to learn there?

Flawed Technology
This semester, I was looking at classes I can take next semester. This past semester, I took two electives classes that fulfills the Advertising and Marketing Communications major. The next semester, I was supposed to take two classes that require the Advertising and Marketing Communications foundation class as a prerequisite. I swapped an evening class for a class that fulfills the Marketing Analytics major to balance my General Marketing major classes.
After swapping classes, I saw that Degreeworks, a software that audits student's classes to see whether the classes are considered electives or not. On the program, I saw that the class that fulfills the Marketing Analytics major was considered an "elective class not accepted" instead of a major elective class.
Today, I went to the Academic Advisement office and showed the advisor that the class is considered to be a major elective class. She went to the Zicklin site and saw that it was an elective class for my major. Turns out I am not alone. There were other students who have the same situation where they registered for classes that comply with their majors but Degreeworks did not recognize it. The advisor then made a note of it. Now, I have to wait to see if it gets updated.

If you have a kid that barely talks that needs tutoring but it seems like they don’t really even care what do you do. I’m a kid tutoring not a teacher btw. Apparently this kid just sits there and when you explain they just nod but they don’t do anything. Do I confront them directly about being rude and wasting time, do I play the friendly card that could be awkward, or what?

Masters Degree
Hello Reddit,
I currently have a Bachelors degree in Business Management a degree I never wanted. My passion is for art history and archaeology. It would be impossible for me to pursue a career in these fields without a masters degree but for that I would need a bachelors first. Should I take the risk? I am 31 no kids so I have the time. My concerns are the job market and loans but I think it might be worth it to do something I am passionate about. Anyone experience this change in careers or have any advice? Thanks!

Public School Failll
If anyone knows of any organizations or people that are interested in sponsoring or helping with tuition to Montessori school for a very smart 6 year old kindergartener, please let me know. I have a child who can write an entire algebra problem, can rewire electrical, can build successful large scale catapults with no assistance, who can successfully just figure out how things work, but because in public school he can't spell Hippopotamus they want to consider him below level and possibly special needs. Anyone that knows Memphis knows how super smart he is. He can write sentences. They may not have everything spelled correctly, but he is in kindergarten. Why beat a kid like this down daily is my question? It has started affecting his self esteem. After talking to teachers and staff, here is the exact response given:
The Indiana Kindergarten Standards are set by the state and are what I must follow to ensure that a student is prepared and able to move on to 1st grade. The curriculum is then provided to me by the district which is what I must follow and teach to each child. The benchmarks are set to guide where a student should be at specific times in the school year. The benchmarks are national benchmarks.
Yes, every child is different and develops at different times than others their age. As the teacher, I must keep parents informed about their child's progress. This includes if they are above, at grade level, behind, or in need for additional assessments to assess for a learning disability. Hopefully this information answers your questions. My hope is that Memphis will learn, grow, and love everything we do at school.
So every child is different, but still the same. I am not bashing public school. I do think the majority succeed. I have 5 other kids that made it. Memphis is a little different. He did great in Montessori last year. We would have kept him in but the cost is not even near being in our budget. I do think I will be able to get a grant for 1st grade. Our closest school is 45 minutes from our house which I am willing to do.
Please feel free to share this. I just want to see Memphis succeed in his full capacity.

Why do ya'll think that Grammarly has become so popular? Has our grammar gotten better or worse throughout time?
I find it a bit insane that people are paying for a service that checks your grammar errors when you can just proofread what you write. This makes me think people aren't finding existing errors even when they proofread. I've also proofread things for my college educated friends and found that most of them do make a lot of mistakes. I don't know if this is because our education system is more flawed than it was before. Or it could be that this was actually always an issue. I'm happy people are paying more attention to their grammar and how they are presented, but this makes me question if everyone was asleep during English class in elementary school.

Did No Child Left Behind have an effect on all US public schools or only schools that received title 1 funding?
I'm American, but I don't really know anything about US education policy. And while I'm aware that No Child Left Behind is no longer on the books, I remember hearing people talk about it a lot while I was growing up, so I'm curious to know more about it.
I didn't realize until very recently that No Child Left Behind was actually an update of an earlier law called the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA)
My understanding of ESEA is very rudimentary - but basically, what I've gathered, is that under Title 1 of the law, schools that have a certain percentage of students from low-income families can qualify for funding from the federal government. And I'm aware that No Child Left Behind tied this funding to standardized test scores.
I'm not entirely sure, but I assume that all public schools in the country, regardless of whether or not they receive Title 1 funding, administer standardized tests and have been doing so since before the days of No Child Left Behind, correct?
So did No Child Left Behind have any impact on schools that don't receive Title 1 funding? Or did No Child Left Behind only have an impact on Title 1 schools?
Thanks!
