Masters of Education

So I have not written much about the fact that I am back at school. Right now, I'm taking one class at a time because I'm lame that way and I did not want to over extend myself. However, no one told me that the future teachers of the United States are considered idiots and cannot handle graduate level coursework and if we want teachers with Masters degrees, then universities must not make the material too hard.

Mind you, I loved my professor last quarter (LOVED... if she wasn't married I might ask her to marry me) and don't hate my professor this quarter. I just think the classes are very easy and do not require much work. Class discussion is great, but really, when we get to bash the public school system and comment on how we would improve it then how bad can it be?

Last quarter I took a course on how adolescence was created in order to extend childhood so that there would be more jobs for adults... no really, it was Human Development: Adolescence. But truly, adolescent angst? A myth.

This quarter I am taking Education and Society where we get to talk about the wonders of No Child Left Behind and school structure and how testing is stupid and students are hopeless especially if they are low income. JUST. KIDDING. (sort of)

All in all, the classes are depressing and make me wonder what the hell I'm getting myself into. Oh, yeah, I want to improve the minds of our future generations so that we can slow our destruction of the world. Wish me luck.
