Community is affected

Why we, college students, should care. Community is affected. More money would not make us work harder in school, unless we were paid for A+ papers. Then we would perfectionists on every assignment. So throwing more money at lazy teachers will not improve our education crisis. Awards must be given when goal is reached. Set goal for students the first day of class.
Better to thoroughly teach one subject than breeze over fifty. Quality, not quantity. Students will be experts at key topics of subjects. Allowing more time to grasp a theory is excellent. Let students test the waters of a subject, experiment, hypothesis, create, question, seek an answer, communicate findings and strategies with classmates. I would rather see a preposition master than a jumbled English student. What’s the rush to learn every aspect of a topic? Students need time to understand and interpret, stop and think, apply, research, relate. They’ll get to the next section in the book.
I have first hand experience of this practice. My professor
What’s it all for? Do be thrown into a company working for someone else. I would like to create something where people are working as their own boss, but in a joint effort to reach a goal we have set together. One goal, multiple roads leading to it. People will do their job. #1 they are interested in the topic at hand. #2 they must work for money, but I don’t have to be dictating their format or setting their daily schedule #3 get out of rush hour traffic! #4 do something worthwhile for humanity #5 find your passion and strive to make a difference #5 wow this feels amazing
