In the chapter 5, the book shows about education. In contemportrary industrial societies, the most powerful institutional agent of socalization, after the family, is education. we will think about teachers’ quality when we talk about education. Everyone knows teachers play an important role in the quality of education. Great teachers help create great students. However, students who have good teachers not only learn more but also become successful in their education careers. Unfortunately, most teachers fail to imube in students basic values of life.
In today’s society, a lot of schools lack of good teachers because teacher’s licenses become easier to pass. However, students achievement has become a big problem. Most teachers lack training and experience, so they cannot explain their couses very clearly to their students. This causes students to get low grades in their studies. Schools do not choose higher quality teachers; instead, they just settle for licenced teachers. There is no doubt that bad teachers teach professional. Howevcr, schools need teacher, so bad teachers do not get fired. For example, the movie” waiting for superman”, showed a teacher sitting in chair and putting his feet on the table and also reading the newspaper, but the school did not fire the teacher caught on video not doing his job. Students cannnot participate in their classes if they have unqualified teachers.
From the information about the education and move which is ” waiting for superman” , I think the government should raise licensing standers by giving different kinds of skill tests and also developing a test system, includes questions to understand teachers’ attitude about teaching students and future plans to helo them become an excellent educator and students can gain real knowledge that help them become success in their life.
