"THE QUALITY SCHOOL" WHAT COMPRISES A QUALITY SCHOOL? MUST WE COMPROMISE OUR STANDARDS TO ACCOMODATE STUDENTS NOT WORKING UP TO THEIR FULLEST POTENTIAL.

IN REALITY, AFTER BEING IN THE CLASSROOM SETTING FOR THE PAST SEVEN YEARS, I WOULD FIND IT DIFFICULT TO INSTITUTE THE MAJORITY OF THEORIES THAT DR. GLASSER OFFERS IN HIS BOOK. HOWEVER, THERE WERE SOME GOOD POINTS IN THE BOOK THAT I WILL TRY.

ONE OF THE POINTS THAT I THOUGHT WOULD REALLY WORK WELL IS THE IDEA OF HAVING ALL HOMEWORK DONE DURING CLASS TIME. THIS IDEA WOULD KEEP THE STUDENTS FROM MAKING EXCUSES AS TO WHY THEIR WORK WASN'T DONE. IT WOULD ALSO ENABLE THE TEACHER TO GIVE STUDENTS THE ADDITIONAL HELP THEY MIGHT NEED. I DO THIS ALREADY TO SOME EXTENT AND PLAN TO EXPAND ON IT FURTHER.
