I have to write a paper. The topic is below:
"Select data from your field observation notes to describe how students communicate in middle school, link your observations to developmental theories, and discuss implications for teaching."
I don't want to do this. I don't even know how to do this.
It doesn't help that some of the theories we're learning completely counter any theories I have learned in sociology and psychology classes about childhood development. My book even has a section about children with ADD and how to tell parents their children "needs" ridalin to be a functioning member of the class -- under the section about "students with exceptionalities".
WTF I hate this class.
