@OMPursuit Maybe, but we all know how well that worked
@awesomepolyglot I totally agree. If they made classes that was just like exploring subjects that you are interested in and had a teacher who was knowledgeable in the subject, with little to no outside homework…I would totally sign up
Oh my goddddddd
My school just had a faculty talent show. Four teachers are probably (not really) going to lose their jobs for their overly accurate portrayals of administrators. Am English teacher compared the predictability of instructional technology to that of North Korean dictators. My Geimetry teacher played the triangle. @stefanmichael should have been there. Shame, man. Those $5 would have benefitted the RPAC.
@awesomepolyglot What type of subjects are we talking, though?
@gracecelia With @awesomepolyglot at all in mind, I’m thinking she’s thinking less welding and more science >.>
Some real research immersion classes would be whack, though. I know some schools have programs, but they seem few and far between.
@Gracecelia Like lab skills classes for the sciences, proof-based classes for mathematics, advanced, accelerated immersion foreign language classes, and English and history classes that actually have value. (At my school, English 9 Honors is a joke. I couldn’t tell you what we’ve done for the past few months other than a research paper. I’ve simply forgotten. Yes, that dull.). Welding, carpentry, and other shop classes could certainly be a part of that too.
@OMPursuit Yeah, I came up with this idea because I have to know that Lamarck came up with giraffes that get taller and have taller babies for some reason. That’ll definitely help me later in life, when I’m an astrobiologist.
@awesomepolyglot I could so jam with a proof-based class, but I’m also just a little worried that having one readily available in high school might make math even more competitive o.o’
just a little
Okay, I like the idea. I definitely know some classes like that I would take. But, even if someone got the ball rolling with this idea (in schools that don’t, so most) we wouldn’t even get it because they wouldn’t get to be implemented until we were seniors or out of school.
I have been gone forever because I broke my old laptop but I’m back lmaoo. And I am now on my schools JV Softball team!!
Welcome back @melloswideworld ! 
I could jive for that idea @awesomepolyglot . My problem is that, like @gracecelia implied, bureaucracy will keep it tied up until long after I graduate. :<
Now it seems as if I am just trying to get through each hour instead of each day…it’s so boring.
TNReady today and tomorrow, yay!*
*blergh why
Oh yeah it wasn’t about you @awesomepolyglot
Cool bro thnx
okay, so
We’re all teenagers, here, but I don’t think we’ve really discussed music
let’s talk songs guys
@IrrationalPepsi 3 more years for u ha
Haven’t posted here in a long time but we will be finalizing our schedules in less than a month for our school so I thought I’d hop in.
My plan:
Honors Chemistry
Honors Algebra 2
AP World History (first AP!)
French 3 (no honors available)
English 10 (idk about Honors)
Cross Country / Track
I have no idea whether to take regular or Honors English 10… I ended up taking regular this year to lighten my workload. However, I feel like I’ve learned almost nothing this year when it comes to writing, so I have no idea if I’m prepared. I’m a pretty good writer, but I’m a VERY slow reader and I am very selective about the books I read. If I’m not interested in a book, it’s almost impossible for me to finish it. I’ll definitely ask my counselor for some advice here.
so jelly of you women in science
also, hullo @literallyliteral ! Your schedule looks a lot like mine (aside from math)
lol at the end it’s like “you could win a Marvel internship!!!” and I’m like “that’ll definitely help my astrobiologist self”
Is anybody going to get up super early on Monday to watch the ExoMars launch livestream?
