Re: I am now a double drop-out
Ah, the good ol' "Granny ped"... Always top of the list of "things I really want to try out, but never got around to" back in teacher training...Originally Posted by Husar
I present you the Hole in the wall-project:

The basic idea is to set up computers with information on them so people can go and educate themselves on subjects. And it seems to work rather well. I heard in an experiment a class that was left alone with such a computer in order to learn about a certain biology subject got comarable test scores to a class taught about the subject by a teacher.
Contrary to what you may think, the teacher is actually crucial in that theory. It requires a person who can give constant positive feedback.
Btw, I start every new topic I teach in a way containing the same principles as granny ped. It does have its merits.

Still maintain that crying on the pitch should warrant a 3 match ban
