Successful Teaching: The “Assembly Line” Classroom
A great post that ties in with the book I was reading for my EP7040: Planning in Education & Health Services class called Influencer. It had a number of parallels to chapter 9, Change the Environment.

I began to think of the assembly lines our students go through. In each grade, we put another little part on our students and move them on their way the next year. Each year we add more pieces until we think they are completely “built” at the end of 12th grade
-
The education system expects that all students are made the same way and need the same parts, which are all added the same way. Then it hopes to get the same exact product at the end of 12 years. It doesn’t work that way! Our classrooms should not just be assembly lines. We should be looking at the whole student and not just the parts.
