but how to we figure out good teachers from the
bad ones

Who cares. Pay them the same way lots of other workers get paid. By the
job -
if it gets done right. Then let the parents pick which teacher they want
based
on their track record.

=====Only if the teachers get to reject some students.

If little Bob tests normal on the IQ test at the beginning of the year and
he
doesn't pass the final the teacher doesn't get paid.

=====And teachers are supposed to get paid, dependent on how much effort
someone else puts into their work? Yea right. I'll bet you would go for
that.

If little Bob gets an A
the teacher gets a bonus. And grade on the curve, based on system wide,
multi
year, results. Yes, I used that evil, segregating, esteem bashing word -
Grades.

'course there is the little problem of poor parents. But teachers should
also
have the right to refuse to take on their jobs.

Around here the teachers can't be fired unless they do something really
bad,
like get convicted of a felony directly related to the school environment.
Simple incompetence is overlooked. And the teachers all know it. Only
the
ones with a bit of personal integrity actually perform. Just like the
rest of
our society......

=====The percentage of poor teachers, or one that don't care is pretty low;
at least at my school.
You should read what you wrote, again. It sounds silly, to me.

It does? That's the way a large portion of the world works. Those that
perform get rewarded. Those that don't look for work. When I'm paying the
bill that's what I expect.

Guess which half doesn't like this concept.

Fire the teachers of the least literate posters on Usenet.
Then fire the teachers of those teachers. IF ANYBODY is
left standing, give 'em a paycheck equal to private industry.

All mine are dead too but if not, they would have to be fired.

Who was bitchin, just stated a fact. Beside, I have taken over the management
myself and have inproved my position a little. At least I stop the downward
slide.

Really?
Most of my teachers were very competent.

In college, the worst I ever had was the gal
that was 'supposed' to be teaching chemistry.
She only lasted a couple of years, so the system
still wasn't broke at that point.

Barnyard BOb - call me the weak link in the chain

Your observation is still closer to the truth, than some postings of late.

I don't know why some people just want to run the other guy down. (not just
about teaching)

I can only say that I'm tired of trying to convince the blockheads. They
must be the ones who never cracked a book out of class, then said the
teacher was at fault.

Bob Reed? Quit bitchin'? You might as well as ask the sun to stop
shining. The stars to stop twinkling. The rivers to stop flowing.
The sands to stop blowing. The birds to stop singing. The bees to
stop humming. Badwater to stop cussing. Larry to stop looking for
latches. Sydney to stop eating bon-bons. Barnyard to stop trying to
convince everyone he's superior. Yada, yada, yada.

Reed's posts are 98% bitching and moaning, 1.99999% not bitching and
moaning(usually in the form of kissing BWB's butt) and 0.00001% on
topic. I'm not really sure he's ever been on topic, but I'm feeling
generous today.

Except for that old saying: "you can lead a horse to water but you
can't make it drink."

The best teachers in the world cannot force kids to learn if they
don't want to. Luckily, most kids do want to learn, but classroom
dynamics sometimes dictate how that goes.

In some classrooms, the bullies rule and pick on kids who are smart.
Naturally, those kids who are smart clam up for their own good.

It's just not as easy as you make it, not any more.
