    Democracy demands equality; thus, through Education students can mix, engage in ethical and moral arguments whilst offering a competitive advantage to reason. The classroom is the healthiest space and place to learn how to express views and opinions, debate on moral and ethical issues, therefore, preparing the student for a global world. Thank you.
  • The conclusion drawn by Michael Sandel was superb. I totally agree with him.
  • As I growing up in the different environments, Is so difficult for me to find out when and where you are waiting for the teacher to come and joined you, and you don’t know that what room is live , so the expectation is not fare enough, otherwise if I knew, i never missed the room. Thanks

    Subject teachers should be graded based on Students Performances

    很有趣的社區教授分享會,這六年級學生反對老師用發獎勵(金)鼓勵學習,她認為老師可以用同儕合作,發展同情與分享在許多情意重於認知和技能的課程。給金錢和物質獎勵,在考科進步的獎勵,在我在台灣的國中教學經驗是無法的,國小也應該不容易,除非老師縱容他們以作弊方式達到獎勵。樂於助人並協助他人,分工合作,是經過同甘共苦的歷程中自發產生的,老師只能了解每個學生差異性,及協助所有人發覺在學習及成長生活中,受到那些來自家庭,社區,阻礙到正常學習,發展潛力的因子,透過共同努力,來解決這些問題。

    Let Students Work Hard, succeed in their Education and achieve their Dreams

    y1 y2 I would put the extra money in teachers assistants so everyone can succeed and achieve /undecided because it should be applicable for all, not influent areas In Canada, a portion of our taxes is given to fund the education systems of their choice every year. I split mine between the two school boards as my children went to different schools The surplus is used for lunch programs and school supplies

    Teachers in Private School With incentive perform Very well than the teachers in Public School..Kenya Private School is a good example
  • @eliseg1000
    the school board should be the ones who are distributing the funds I also think that the affluent can have private schools but the taxes should go to the public system
  • @henryarero
    Recognition for the Students who Have worked Hard is ok With Me

    In our modern societies, we are becoming increasingly split off from one another. Before this, communities always helped and cared for one another. Now, because western life has become so competitive and merit-based, we sadly see how many people in present day society care only for themselves. This is what Sandel is trying to show us.
