English teacher caught me doing this, confiscated my walkman, told me to come by when the day was done to get it back. Came back and he was rocking out with his own headphones, said I had good taste, but not to let it happen again. (The best of 3 dog night), hallway home the batteries died, I was prideful and upset the rest of the walk home.
This explains why so many of y'all didn't learn anything in school.
As someone with next to zero attention span it baffled me when I learned other actual make the choice not too.
I just had sucky teachers. Most classes consisted of walking in, and the teacher making us copy some overheads, then do work in the textbook, then homework. The teacher didn't really engage or teach us anything, just sat there on his phone
In all reality the books should be enough for people to learn. Teachers don't actually 'teach'. They all just regurgitate info.
...if that's the case, why do professors exist in this day and age with so many books? Why don't we have a scholar system in reality if books should be enough for people to learn?
Like, if you've ever had a good teacher before, they're not JUST regurgitating info, they're connecting it to the wider context that currently surrounds you, aka your daily lived life (at least in a lot of cases, I'm sure there are many flavors of what makes a teacher better than an info regurgitator, but this is a solid one that I personally know of)
Teachers, while they may suck or not have the ability to be good for whatever reason, are not supposed to be just information spewing robots.
That might be how you learn, but it certainly isn't how everyone learns. Also, that's just a shitty take on teachers.
And we wonder why teachers want to ban phones in classrooms
Dunno why people keep saying this like it's a new thing lmao, since phones have become popular even in the flip phone days teachers and schools have or tried to ban them.
It doesn't work, it never works, kids will always find a way to sneak them in lmaooo
Doesn’t mean one should give up and do nothing.
What's an iPod grandpa?
Yeah music is cool but you should try doing well in school. What other longterm objectives could you possibly have while living with your parents?
What makes you assume children (want to) have long term objectives?
Everybody wants to. Not everybody is in a position where they think they can.
I used to do the secret service version. Cables runs through your back and have it go over your ear. I had a fro so teachers couldn't see my cable or earphones.
I just did the thing where you drink vodka in the parking lot with the Polish kids at lunch so you don't care about having to sit through class.
