Classroom Ignorance

When you are in a classroom there are things that you factor in your mind, am i concentrating enough? have i absorbed all the information that i can? Am i listening attentively? do i have enough lip gloss on?

These are the things students should be worrying about okay maybe not the last one, but as a student you come to class to further your education to learn the the best of your ability and i think that with a bigger class its hard to listen attentively when there is so much going on around you. People get distracted easily and teachers feel like they have to be in a million places at once trying to give each student the best education possible because that's what there their for right?

As for Mr Pynes argument for attracting more talented people into the teaching profession does he really think people are really going to be attracted to becoming a teacher when all they are doing is cutting jobs and making classes bigger because that doesn't appeal to me a student and I'm sure it wouldn't appeal to teachers. Having that extra stress that is forced upon them because of the large number of students they have to take on. I strongly believe that they should worry about reducing class sizes before all the teachers go on stress leave.
