Tennyson High School Research.

The school that i did research on its called Tennyson high school in Hayward CA, I graduated from this school in 2011, and when i was there i couldn't find no connections to the books, because the school system was so different to the point that in order to have a better graduation rates, they would just give students a lot of chances, and You can graduate from high school like you haven't done no work at all. There was some teachers in Tennyson that did not care at all, if you didn't wanted to be here they would just let you out, i wouldn't even deal with you.

 The counselors are incompetent, i had a personal one since she was affiliated to a academy which is called CMMA (Community Multimedia Academy). You can say there was some segregation in my old school, but it was between academies, not races. There was 5 academies, ATLA, CMMA, X academy, AVID, BayLab. People who were in those academies were rarely friends, and only hanged out with people from our academies. They would send me to recruit freshmen into joining our academy, since we wanted the best minds in the schools. The students who were not in academies didn't get no attention nor tutoring time. All of other academies hated CMMA because we had the best technology in the school, since we were partnered with Adobe Corporation.

Another form of segregation was Halls. Halls were spots that students can socialize. They were 3 Main Halls; C Hall, D Hall, E Hall. C Hall was occupied by X Academy, and BayLab Students, since they had some similarities. E Hall was mostly CMMA and ATLA members, but we didn't get along. Some students who were in ATLA initially wanted to be in CMMA, but because of their grades they got kicked out, so some ALTA students hated CMMA students calling us Arrogant just because we had more resources than the other students in school. D Hall was more like a neutral zone, and any student from any academy would hang out with their friends during lunch. D hall was special because the students who hanged out in there saw academies as just academies, not feuds. I was part of that group, and we had fun in those times. When i was a senior BayLab and X academy got Dissolved due to insufficient resources. ALTA, CMMA, and AVID stands supreme to this day.

In other high schools, nobody really cared if you were a freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior, but in Tennyson it mattered a lot. Seniors would be bullies to other classes because they thought they were superior since they were leaving, also they were more much more reckless than other classes. In my freshman year, before i got introduced to academies, they were segregation of classes. Seniors would look at me funny because i dated a junior, because it was unheard of, and i used to be harassed because of it. There was this sophomore girl who really liked me, but i rejected her due to the fact she was just a sophomore and i was a senior and if you saw people from different classes you would get ridiculed by your peers. When freshman Friday came, i had to fight off two seniors, because they wanted to throw me in the garbage, but i didn't fist fight them, but i outsmarted them and ran away.

           The students will be bored and not have motivation, to not do homework. College students does not have enough time on their hands, if they have other responsibilities, like paying bills, or paying their college tuition. Plus students just don't like homework, it makes a lot of procrastination among students. Also it will be much more easier on teacher less work at home so that they can spend time with their own families.

 

           Teachers need more time to make better lesson plans, I mean college students also don't like long classes, but there are some advantages.If teachers make the class more interesting, and more fun, then the class will go by really fast since the students will be distracted. Teachers can also cover more of the course and the assignments will be much more earlier.

           More hands on learning connect with longer lesson plans, i mean if you make more hands on and less lectures, then the class wouldn't be bored and not care about the course. The teachers can go outside, and have class outside in the fresh air, or have contests, for prizes. It has been scientifically proven that people work harder if you give them a prize.

What in education is out like a wristwatch, "a single function device?"

The system itself is a single function device, its only meant to get a profession and nothing else, and that's good to be honest, i mean in my opinion without education you wouldn't see the industries that you see now. Sometimes you learn about unnecessary things, things that is not relevant to your life. A lot of people think that education is just so that you can a better job, but i can see the bigger picture. The bigger picture is that education is not only so that you can get a degree, its also for you to learn about life in general, history, math, and science are essential parts of life.
