Thanks Shelley, Mal, Catherine & Vic.
I am beginning to think that some of the younger teachers today should be trained under the old system of education. If they can't teach effectively, then what hope have the students got? With all the technology around, you would assume that we would have brilliant young academics, but not so. It has made them mentally lazy. Half of the kids leaving school now would not be able to effectively write a letter for a job application for example, with correct grammar, spelling and legible hand writing...they are too used to computers doing it for them. Very sad!
