The teacher was complained by the parents about the seat arrangement, and angrily said it was unfair, you will do it?
The teacher sat in a chair and was interviewed by the parents, who complained!The teacher is not happy: you say it's not fair, do you want to come?
Mr. Zhao was very frustrated, and in fact, his parents had complained to him about the seating arrangement, and the principal had even talked to him personally. What's going on here?Is seating also a task that cannot be done on your own?What a joke!
Mr. Zhao said indignantly that in the past, when assigning seats, he would consider many factors, such as the personality and grades of the students. Naughty students are dispersed and sit with students with a peaceful personality so as not to cause a commotion. Students with poor grades but who are motivated can be placed next to students who have good grades and are helpful. Students who are reluctant to study and like to cause trouble are placed in the front row so that the teacher can pay attention at any time. Of course, some attention should also be paid to the students with the worst grades...There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with this way of organizing, so why would some parents complain?
It turned out that before the monthly exam, Mr. Zhao wanted to boldly try a new method - let students choose seats according to their grades, with the aim of motivating more students to study better. In order to get the support of the students, he also asked the students for their opinions in the classroom.
Competition is everywhere, in any field. It may seem unusual for me to arrange my position this way, but what's wrong with that?Peking University and Tsinghua University compete for top resources every year, but no one accuses them of being unreasonable. No. 2 High School attracts the best students every year, and no other school accuses No. 2 of its unfair practices. Arguably, arguably arranging degrees according to merit is the most reasonable.
Nowadays, many people always talk about their children's self-esteem being hurt, being discriminated against and excluded, and even leading to depression in the name of justice and fairness. In fact, this is largely a cause of parental concern – children themselves may not be aware of what depression is, but when parents exaggerate it, children do feel depressed. Isn't that a kind of sadness?
So, what is the basis for the parent's lawsuit against Mr. Zhao?To sum up, there are some points. First, parents believe that their children are short and should not sit in the back of the classroom because they can't see the blackboard.
In this regard, Mr. Zhao clearly refuted this argument. The child did not sit behind the tall man, but sat near the windowsill, and there were no other students in front of him blocking his view, so why couldn't he see **?
Second, they believe that this kind of seating arrangement tends to make good students sit together, while bad students sit together, which is detrimental to learning. Poor students can only sit in relatively poor seats and share the table with poor students. Such a combination will lead to relatively poor study habits and foundations for two people. Isn't that the dropout rate for poor students?
Mr. Zhao disagrees. It is indeed possible, but competition is the result of choice, so why can't excellent students choose their own desks?Later, to avoid this problem, the school made some adjustments, as in the case of your son. Height isn't the only reason you always want to sit in the front row. Wouldn't that be fairer?
The third point is that parents think that this is naked discrimination against poor students. Although there is no corporal punishment, it hurts the child's self-esteem more than corporal punishment. The Ministry of Education prohibits teachers from grading students, so why do they need to allocate places based on grades?Should teachers evaluate students based on grades?Should a poor student be beaten to death with a stick?
Hearing these words, Professor Zhao couldn't help but smile bitterly. He asked rhetorically"If I don't grade them for the new grades, how do I grade them?By height?This is unfair to tall students. Grading classes based on merit can also be accused of discriminating against poor students. If it is divided into men and women, it will be accused of gender discrimination. What do you think I should do?
Faced with the director's questioning, Mr. Zhao angrily retorted a few words at that time. He insisted that he just wanted to try it for a while. Without trying, who knows the pros and cons of merit-based allocation?If my parents complain, am I going to give in?In this case, how can the work be done well in the future?"
Dear readers, what do you think of the complaints that teachers have received due to seating arrangements?Welcome to leave a message to discuss.
