Often in APS, I have seen situations where the student was right, and the teacher was wrong, but the student suffered for his/her "arrogant attitude".<br />I know administrators that punished students severely, then realized their mistake, but didn't apologize, and didn't stop the punishment for fear they would "look bad".<br />In a true and positive ;earning environment, students could politely challenge teachers and adults in authority could apologize...it would at least be a good start of an "Educational Renaissance".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
