When I was a fir...I totally agree with your point. <br />When I was a first year out in a rural 'ghetto' school in WA, the last week or so was basically film without thought. The students eventually got bored of it! Now teaching in a suburban Victoria school we have 'extension' programs right up until the last day working on debate, creative writing, film making, poetry and more... the expectations are high and the focus is on the value of learning whether or not the reports have been written. <br />We should value and respect our students enough to provide them with relevant and engaging learning experiences right to the end. I agree that we need to maintain high expectations of our students and not allow them to watch degrading stereotyped films that will only serve to reinforce the negative self-image that many low seo students might already have. <br />ReflectiveTeacherhttp://reflectiveteacher.com.aunoreply@blogger.com
