CPS to lengthen high school days by 36 minutes next year
Hey it's better than nothing.
These kids need a better grasp of understanding the world around them. One could say, things have definitely changed dramatically since the invention of the typewriter. Let's face the facts folks. We are "Global". Information is just a key-punch away for millions of people around the world. Well, maybe not the average citizen of North Korea, and other deeply impoverished countries. But, it's there, in libraries, cafes, and dozens of tech locations.
Our teachers must drive home the point that the world we live in now, is simply zipping along at a much faster clip, from an information standpoint. And it is how that information is used, will either make, or brake us as a country. Extending classroom time for high school students is a good thing. In my view, it should never had been tinkered with in the first place. So teachers, please utilize that time exploring with your students, current events around the globe.
