Gosh, it was only in the past few months that I actually begun to work hard on my school work. My work is around a B now (because I have really bad sleep habits and make stupid mistakes on tasks) Wheneve i talk to my friends they usually have 100 or 90 percent on tests and I'm the only one who has a C. I dont rlly care about other ppl but I'm just afraid that I will fail in high school. I do extra homework every day, but whenever I hit something hard my mind would go blank and I would get distracted. Help? If I cant even get an a in elementary I'll probably never be a doctor or something.
Why is the American education system so flawed? It’s not just me that feels that way. Many people have been comparing it to systems overseas and showing that countries in Europe and Asia, for example, are spending less hours teaching and have better job satisfactions. It also seems that the attitude in America towards learning is, in general, a lot lower when compared to the rest of the developed world. We can’t even begin to mention the cost of college tuitions. It’s ridiculous that Americans go in to so much debt just to land jobs they hate or not have many skills, compared to higher education in other countries. What drives this phenomenon in the US (I’m a student who was born and raised here who still struggles to find this answer)? The answer isn’t simple, but does anyone have any ideas on why the education culture is so horrible in the States?
These apps are educational apps for kids, so i will be happy if you give it a try and leave a feedback, thank you all

One of the few millions that was inspired by the TED talk. Where are these schools?
I’ve been toying with the idea of trying to make a series of videos that are based on rigorously peer reviewed research in education. I’d like to try to get this information out more broadly to the teaching community. I feel like so much misinformation is out there but there is never any talk about what has been proven to really work and how we can use it in teaching.
This is my first try. Future ideas include memory and how understanding its mechanism in the brain can help us in the classroom. The misconception of engagement equals learning. Retrieval practice and the testing effect. The problem with growth mindset and its application into the classroom and more. I’m open to ideas too.
Here is the link to The Myth of Learning Styles. I already know do a few mistakes but still happy with what I have so far. More feedback is appreciated.
I hope this content can be help inform, enlighten, and engage.
I am a Resource & RTI teacher at a small school. I have a number of middle school (6-8 grades) students who are at much much lower reading levels than their grade levels. I am struggling to find materials within their reading levels (think 2.2-3.2 for a 14yo 8th grader)that are 1. Of any interest level 2. Don’t really highlight the point that the students reading level is so much lower than his grade level. For instance if books within his reading level are Amelia Bedelia, books about puppies, etc... so he has no interest in reading them. And then it makes him not want to read during spare time bc he feels like other students know he’s reading “baby books”. Any advice? Is there a resource out there that I’m missing? We are trying to hit IEP goals, and our very first hurdle is just FINDING something to read. Help!
Hey, thank you so much for checking this post. I'm a senior in high school and I am kind of freaking out, I have 6 external exams in may, 3 AP and 3 IGCSE, I am feeling so depressed lately and my parents keep pushing and pushing and whenever I do anything that makes me happy they shout and punish me, even if I was watching a video or movie for 30 mins. Tbh I do have suicidal thoughts every now and then and I do want to stop them but they haunt me at night and I cry myself to sleep almost everyday. Every study plan I make fails and I honestly feel like I am a failure. Can someone give me advice or some plan, before I either fall into some deeper depression or kill myself.
We are going to show you how to launch WEKA, and how to start using it, what each of the components means, and help you decide if it is the right tool for your needs. In the end, we are going to discuss if WEKA is going to change the traditional way of doing Machine Learning and is it sufficient enough to allow us to do Machine Learning without any programming language.

This video is released today which explains tips & strategies for Taking Notes
Is it possible to take A levels online as an adult when living abroad? I am considering moving back to Poland, would it still be possible to take the course (I would be able to come to the UK for any exams).
I’ve been working as a special needs teacher for almost three years and it’s probably one of the hardest jobs I’ve ever had. I teach kids, teens and adults and wow, the adults. At times it can get violent, disgusting, frustrating and very emotionally exhausting. But I love all my students and everyday is kind of like a video game. I was interviewed about my experience here and it definitely maps out how crazy things can get.
I'm looking for a book to teach math to my 4 year old, preferably arranged in lessons that I can cover with him sequentially.
I don't have a very good intuition for how to judge the books I find on Amazon or other online stores, but I'm pretty sure I don't need just a pamphlet that abstractly describes what concepts to discuss with a child, nor a workbook with a long list of puzzles or simple arithmetic questions to complete. I have plenty of these already at home and while they seem to have helped my son reason in a mathematical way and he can solve equations like "3+2=" it doesn't feel like there's a curriculum that's building towards anything.
For teaching my son to read, I used the book Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons and I loved the structure of it. Once we had finished all the lessons my son moved on to reading beginner books as his daily reading lesson without any problems. Now I just have to keep a steady supply of level-appropriate books and he gets practice and incremental progress every day.
My ideal would be the math equivalent of Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons. Is there something like that which anyone would recommend? Any help in sorting through math/numeracy materials for this age group would be greatly appreciated!
Hey can anyone in this sub reddit recommend some youtube channels for an aspiring late in life teacher, 41m
I am presenting PD next week on a couple things, I would love to hear from you knowledgeable educators!
Hey guys, due to unfortunate circumstances (mainly the college being shady af), I haven't finished my degree. I have finished all courses and seminars but the thesis and finals. Now, I'm thinking of somehow getting the degree maybe at another, even online, college. I don't care about the quality as I already have the knowledge, I just want a paper for additional job opportunities. I was majoring in English for Business (bachelor) in Europe and any suggestions are more than welcome.
High school Health and Pe teacher here. It’s going to be so strange going back to school and meeting my students in person for the first time. Kids are not required to turn on their cameras in my district and no matter how much I encourage them to, I get about 60ish% to do it.
We’re resuming in person school next week and I’m only going to know kids by their avator. Scooby Doo, Beyoncé eating pizza, Patrick Star, etc. Anyone else having the same experience?
hello friends! i hope you all are well! i wanted to ask a quick favor and that is for any of you who are popcorn lovers. if you don't mind spending a few bucks on some popcorn for my schools science olympiad team, feel free to donate to the cause below!

I have been bullied by teachers throughout my time as a student. I am an adult doing my second undergrad degree and am wondering 'why me and not other students'? Currently, I am being treated unfairly by a college professor but this just brings up multiple memories of being bullied by teachers.
I know reddit wouldn't be a place where a bully lurks but maybe the teachers here can shed some light. What would make a teacher dislike a student to the point of treating them differently than other student? To the point of verbal abuse or humiliation in front of the entire class.
I don't want to go into the details, but I have basically either just taken it and gotten As in their classes, or had to get higher authorities involved and switch out of that teacher's class. This has happened to me with at least 10 different teachers. I used to think they might be racist but these people (males and females) were of a variety of races. I also used to think maybe I reminded the male teachers of an ex girlfriend.
These incidents happened in metro parts of FL and am a female SE Asian minority. I am pretty logical but am clueless why this keeps happening and what I can do about it. Thank you.
As a first year teacher in a mostly virtual setting, I feel like I’m lacking a teacher community. The collaboration is gone and the quick questions that I used to be able to ask other teachers during student teaching, I now have to figure out on my own. So, maybe you can help me answer one or a few of the questions that have been weighing on me. I’d really appreciate it.
Is it normal to feel like you’re failing all the time? Is that okay? Any ways to deal with the stress of feeling like you’re not doing enough?
How do you balance the urgency of keeping kids on track this year (with less instructional time and online, in my case), and being kind to yourself during a first-year-of-teaching-in-a-pandemic?
Does the sense of dread you feel about getting everything done go away with time? Can you tell me about your experience with teaching getting better over time?
Any help would be appreciated.
Someone mentioned this would be a good idea, so I made one. I'm an ed tech coach, and at the very least if you post questions to the subreddit I'll get back to you with ideas/videos/blogs that answer your question.
It's r/edtechhelp
The goal is just to have a positive place (no pressure to be super-heros, but also not a space for venting) that we can ask each other for advice about new tech that helps with our situation or that we have to use in our districts and don't know how to use.
It's also a place to share good ideas you find online.

My personal opinion on today's educational system would be that it needs a lot of change. I would like for a few major changes to occur, I would like to see the removal of grades, homework, and standardized testing, schools starting later, and I would like to see a new system in which some students would be given special attention if they are currently having family or stress-related problems. First I would like to say that the removal of grades, homework, and standardized testing would allow students to blossom. This would allow the massive strain of stress they had lifted which would boost their brain functions and overall allow them to live a healthier lifestyle. People even get a kick out of homes and beaten because of these 3 things. Instead, I believe that the teacher should speak to the students and tell them their recent weaknesses and strengths. I believe that classwork, projects, and fun activities could also measure the student's strengths and weaknesses. Schools starting later means that we would be able to have more time to rest. This always for a healthier lifestyle. It also means most students will be able to eat a more balanced breakfast and will do better in classes since they will not be sleeping through any of their classes normally. Lastly, I would like to see a special program if all these things are not implemented that helps students that are being beaten, threatened, or under massive stress because of school, family, or anything. This will allow them to not worry as much and will give them the much-needed break they need. It will allow them to be happy. It will allow them to be able to talk about their feelings.
and it did not work out due to my love of lifelong learning
My past higher education academic pursuits
my knowledge was way advanced for the position and pay that the agency hired me into. I took the job anyway because I needed to work.
But my test results on the weekly's were above avg 98% when only 80 was required
Some people couldnt score 80
I became targeted for pushout during the Covid outbreak. I am middle age. My peers were recent college graduates
It seems as though, as an educated woman who worked in private sectors that I've aged out
I tried a State Govt job thinking that my experience, dedication and advanced education would add value to this employer
It did not. It worked against me.
You cant take a 12th grader and bring them back to 5th grade
But that is what happens out here in the work world. (to some people who may not have the right connections)
Men in higher level positions wont speak with me. They push me down to the junior people in their 20's who are just starting out in their careers.
Its to send a message, "You are not wanted here, we dont care what you know, you are in our age group and got pushed down into poverty, we cant be near that!"
And so I cant work my way out.
I cant just start a business. That requires money and well, as a Finance major, I know what it takes.
And if we could all just start a business, we would.
Many people out here in society neglect to discuss budgets and cost of living. They'll suggest to me "just take any job" as though its sitting on a shelf like a piece of fruit we can pick.
It doesnt work that way
But thats how many people think
That we can all just take and work ANY job no matter how old we are, our financial housing needs costs, healthcare costs...
Experience comes with age.
Not many places want to pay for the experience
The mature people in my age group in the biz sector wont speak with me.
Im not good enough because I dont have a Title. Therefore only their junior person is sent to speak with me. And they are the ones keeping me out of employment
Id love to study for LSATs to apply to law school at night. But that isnt free and I have no income.
None
I cant get hired anywhere
Substitutes teaching wouldnt work. I need $3000/month min to live
Ive posted in other reddit forums
But any mentioning of my education results in people attacking me or calling me elitist because I need cerebral work.
This post isn’t what you think it is! ... probably. I’ve been a teacher (secondary ELA, in the US) for the last ten years. The last few years in our small, rural district, we have been struggling with our principal. I have been told a few times by different colleagues that “I wish you were our principal.” And I’m wondering... could administration be in my future? I love my job. I love the kids. And that’s literally why I wake up and go to work every day. I do not enjoy interacting with parents or adults. HOWEVER, I have reached a point of “no fucks given” and have found my voice as far as advocating for myself and what my fellow teachers need. I guess I am a reluctant leader. So, this leads me to my question. Administrators, how would you compare your work load to when you were teaching? Work/life balance? I have always toyed with the idea of stepping out of the classroom eventually, but mainly was thinking more about becoming a media specialist or GT coordinator. But that administrative paycheck $$$ would be nice, too. Plus, after a decade of dealing with incompetent people in administrative positions, my confidence is boosted that maybe just maybe I could do this. Thoughts? Advice? Sorry for the rambling format. I had a bit o Fireball for dinner.
Hello All,
This is for my US (California) high school teachers. I am looking for information about the legality of being given 42 students on one roster. This teacher is a first year teacher and 11 of these students are SPED students. I am looking for resources for her such as appropriate next steps, laws, or even references in LAUHSD. I am also a first and I have no idea how to help but I also know this isn't legal.
Thanks in advance!
CR-S Framework is grounded by 4 principles:
We need to apply pressure on our local legislative representatives to pass the bill, A03648. Passing the bill will:
Establish a culturally responsive education curriculum and standards; requires all school districts, charter schools and private schools to integrate culturally responsive education throughout the education of all students at all grade levels.
Hello! I am currently in 8th grade and am wondering what I need to do throughout my years in high school to get into a very highly ranked college in the US. I currently am very into math and engineering. I am planning on going to a local magnet school that takes kids from 11th to 12th grade. Thanks for your time!
Also, I know I am thinking about this way too early but I want to get a head-start!
P.S. If you have any questions about anything else please ask!
Kinda posted this earlier but I deleted it and refined it to make more sense

I moved to The Netherlands when I was younger (3) but It was my plan to go back to Australia next year (20), if I decide to stay (in the near future) than the following question is quite important.
What would the Dutch MBO level 3 and or 4 (middelbaar beroepsonderwijs niveau 3/4) equivalent be in Australia? And what comes after it?
I am studying for basic/broad social work right now but I'm planning to study to work in (school) education.
I am working on a mastersdegree right now. Its about deep level processing and how teachers can use this as a opposite to surface level processing. Some also use the words deep learning, but I am NOT looking for deep learning that has to do with AI, computer learning and that sort of thing. Anybody have a suggestion?
I recently migrated last January from the Philippines to the US as a sophomore in high school. In the Philippines, I was a B-average student, while here, I am an A-average student. I have noticed that the grading system in the Philippines and the specific school I went to was much more difficult than the American standard grading system. My current school did not convert my grades which has heavily affected my GPA. I am currently a junior.
How am I able to convert my Philippine grades to American grades? If I am unable to, should I mention that on my college application (I’m pretty sure it’s called a Common App)? Anything will help, thank you! :-)
Hi, was wondering if anyone had any experience on the educational standards on honors classes in nc more specifically world history, English 1 and biology. Also was wondering if anyone had experience with learning part time in the summer or extra classes with ncvps. The last thing I was wondering if anyone had experience going to union county early college Thank you One salty boi

What is HR Analytics? How it can help you as an HR professional?
Here is the best known scientific definition of HR Analytics: HR analytics is the systematic identification and quantification of the people drivers of business outcomes (Heuvel & Bondarouk, 2016)
Everybody wants to go into HR Analytics, and not without good reason. As a skill, it is a huge boost to have on your resume today, especially if you are an HR person. HR Analytics is all the rage today. For decades now, HRs have struggled with supporting decisions with enough data and gaining respect as essential members of the organization.
HR Analytics has put an end to that struggle. Now it's not just possible to get data and find patterns, but also to make predictions using HR data. By using people analytics you don’t have to rely on gut feeling anymore. Analytics enables HR professionals to make data-driven decisions. Furthermore, analytics helps to test the effectiveness of HR policies and different interventions.
So it is not a surprise that I wanted to learn it too.
I found a course on Edu4Sure which helped me learn everything I should know as an HR Analyst. And not just the technical part. The instructors helped me learn how to glean insight from data which I was never able to understand before. Here is the link to their course.
Hope this post helps you realise your potential as an HR professional. Cheers!

During your experience as an education student, what is the most difficult subject that you've had to learn?
I'm in Year 11 right now and I've been telling my parents I want to take A-Levels since a year ago. When they introduced IB to me, I've been pushing it away because I wasn't interested in the course at all.
Today, they brought up the topic again and at this point, I'm really stressed out. I tried telling them that I want to take A-Levels but they believe IB would benefit more.
They're telling me to apply for IB scholarship right now. How should I tell them properly that I'm not interested??
Instead of throwing markers out when they are dead, try re-inking them. Sharpies, dry erase and any red, blue, or yellow markers can by easily inked. Ink costs under $3 per 3 pack so it will save you money too.
I was having a discussion with one of my coworkers the other night; a recent HS graduate taking some college courses. We were having a discussion about vacations and countries that we have traveled to. I mention that i went to Havana, Cuba a couple years ago. I told him I wasn’t that impressed with it but one the cool thing I saw was visiting Earnest Hemingway Cuban home.
“Who?”
EARNEST HEMINGWAY!!
“Who’s that?”
The Old man and the Sea? A Farewell to arms?
“Never heard of that”
I feel like something is slipping
Hey everyone! This is my first post on this sub.
I’m in my last year of HS. Trying to keep a good average because I got conditional acceptance recently.
My problem is that I study so hard and do horrible on tests! Meanwhile my other friends don’t study as hard and get high 90s. Whenever I ask for advice from them it they just say “idk how I do it”.
I apply myself like I’ve been told countless times but I’m not seeing the results. I’m at a loss of ideas and I need to get my sh*t together.
I study in increments of around 50 minutes everyday of the week. Do practice questions Watch videos Spend all my lunches in class studying.
I wish the case was that I’m lazy and don’t try but it’s the opposite and I see no results.
Any help will be appreciated!
Abstract: Public school districts in the United States have some authority and control over how they operate, but factors such as federal collective-bargaining law constrain what they can do. A full-blown polycentric education system would enjoy major benefits, such as enabling districts to discover better ways to educate students and to customize educational content to better meet the needs of a diverse student body.
