If the student has learning disabilities, they will not tell anybody because they are too embarrassed to mention them and they struggle throughout school; they don’t ask for help. The second reason that high school grads are unable to read is failure of school systems. Schools are overpopulated and crowded and ones that are in large populated areas are more focused on academic functions then the curriculum of learning. They don’t have enough teachers or teacher’s assistants to give each individual one on one time to learn the material. Students don’t have that support from the teacher that they need to succeed in school.
This makes school unenjoyable for the student which can lead to outbursts of anger and fights with other students. Gerald needs to be introduced to strategies to improve his social skills which will positively contribute to his inclusion (pg 365, Ashman & Elkins) . Gerald needs routine without a routine Gerald finds it very unsettling and creates disturbances. It is important that Gerald is given a warning before a routine change, so he has time to adapt to the changeover. Gerald may also have the following characteristics; Impairment in social interaction(failure to develop friendships that are appropriate the child’s developmental level, impaired used of non verbal behaviour such as eye gaze, facial expression and body language, empathy and impaired ability to identify social cues), impairment of social communication (fluent speech but difficulties with conversation skills), restrictive interests (special interest that are unusual in intensity and focus, preference to routine and consistency.
They are able to manipulate the education system to their advantage which means their children have a better chance at doing well in school. Disconnected-local choosers and semi-skilled choosers are working-class parents who have a lack of cultural capital and therefore their child’s academic progress suffers as they are usually sent to ‘local’ schools which they aren’t necessarily best suited for. Children who have cultural capital also have an elaborated code (wider vocabulary) which gives them an advantage at school as it is the code used by teachers and in textbooks. The elaborated code is typically used by middle class and helps with their academic achievement. Children with a lack of cultural capital are more likely to use the restricted code (limited vocabulary) which disadvantages them at school as they feel excluded and are therefore less successful.
Competitive students are described as suspicious of their peers leading to competition for rewards and recognition. Collaborative students enjoy working in harmony with others. They collaborate well with peers to the point where they bring out the best in them. Dependent students become frustrated easily when facing a new challenge not directly addressed in the classroom. Independent students prefer to work alone than with peers.
Salinger shows how Holden’s childhood have shaped his attitude towards others. Through Holden’s characteristics, actions and comments Salinger shows that events in our life can affect the adults we become. Holden tends to be a pessimist teenager that always sees the bad in people, especially in adults. He has the habit to use the word “phony” to describe people, and it seems like he has difficulties having a good social life, but he doesn’t really like to be alone. He has been kicked out of school several times; it seems like he does not care about it; however, he has a decent grade in English class.
Today, there is no problem more perplexing or frustrating than the situation in which a bright child cannot or will not perform at an academic level commensurate with his or her intellectual ability. The gifted child who is an academic underachiever may suffer from more than poor grades and the disapproval of parents and teachers. Unfortunately, if performance in school is deemed inadequate, the child may also perceive himself or herself as inadequate in other kinds of learning experiences. As these unpleasant experiences continue, a negative attitude toward school, self, and learning in general may
Most pupils are labelled by teachers when they come into a classroom for the first time, the majority of the time the labels given to the pupils are unintentional and based on racist stereotypes and prejudice. Wright (1986) went to 4 inner-city primary schools and gathered research based on classroom observations which he found that teachers perceived and treated ethnic minority students differently to white students. Asian children, especially young Asian pupils were often ignored and received less attention than other students. Asian students were often excluded from classroom discussions and rarely got asked questions by the teacher. Teachers assumed that the Asian students lacked language skills which allowed them to join in class activities; teachers thought they were insufficient for full participation in classroom tasks.
They were very poor. The job that she works at did not pay very well. Carson did not do too well in school. He seemed to struggle a lot, and kids always made fun of him by calling him by the name of “dumb kid.” Up until he reached the age of 11 his mother, and a few of his school teachers helped motivate him into developing an interest in school. He than began to start doing well, and soon kids stop calling him names.
Some academics come naturally to students and if they are outnumbered by those that don’t comprehend the lesson, then they may receive a poor grade. In the same manner if a student is outnumbered by intellectual student then they would receive a grade they did not earn. I have seen a few children in the classroom who can read really well and it would not be fair to those few students if they received a low grade because the majority of the class does not know how to read well yet. Another downside to group grading is that sometimes you find that some people work harder than others. In college as well as in kindergarten you find students that put forth no effort, when this happens you have students who are going to have to work harder to pick up the slack.
Also, poor students don’t have enough money to buy new computers or new programs to join with society, and this problem reflects in schools such as knowledge and experiences, too. There are many effects results faces schools system on the education, and school system get bad result. There are some teachers don’t have experiences, and teachers have negative influence on the students, however, there are some solution to get a good result such as encourages students to work hard, and distract give new computers, enough supplies that student need .Also school system can make new programs such as programs for training, grant programs to develop the ability for the
