High School hostage crisis has shown its ugly head again. Students were held hostage by a fifteen year old student who ended up hurting a few others and took his own life. Many said that the student didn't want to hurt anyone ,but some how lost his cool during the ordeal.

Is Social Media Dumbing Down Our Kids
Image via Wikipedia Have you ever noticed how when you meet a young teenager they seem not to get what you are talking about? I have noticed that every since Social Media became popular the students are getting dumber and dumber. For example, text messaging is broken up with letters and numbers that don't even make sense. You never get someone who can type a complete sentence or even communicate in the right manner. I have noticed that sites like Twitter and Facebook have made education second priority, because the youth seem to have lost the basic skills of writing and critical thinking.

Organized Teachers and Classroom
Organized Education
Many teachers through out the Atlanta Public School System seem to have a tough time when it comes to keep behavior problems down due to unorganized planning and effective classroom etiquette. I have noticed that the more organized the teacher is and the less problems she has inside the classroom. For example Ms. Cannon at North Atlanta high school has to be the most effective school teacher in the state. She is so well organized that kids sign in if they are late etc. which allows her to just concentrate on teaching. Here are a few steps that will help you in becoming and organized teacher.

School Discipline is A Problem
I have noticed since working in the schools that many students around the Atlanta Public Schools System are out of control. The school discipline in middle schools and high schools are crazy and becoming a growning problem by the minute. I have noticed since being inside the Atlanta Public School system that the discipline problem is really growing by leaps and bounds. Now this does not apply to all schools but a large part of the system seems to let the children get away with murder. Hall monitors are hard to find when trouble breaks out and getting someone to come a remove a student from your classroom is like trying to hit the lottery.

A Generation of Idiots
It seems like the american educational system is not getting any better. The American youth today don't seem bright as pass generations. Kids today don't seem to have reasoning skills like children from earlier generations. The culture we live in doesn't seem to push the educational aganda. Most of the kids from the this generations don't really seem to know what to real education is and how to go about getting it.
