The kind of teaching I observed in part 1 of Stand and Deliver
The teacher in Stand and Deliver was very hands on. In the beginning he showed the students how to do math with an apple. The teacher had a sense of humor which probably got the students to pay more attention in class. He also kind of used reverse psychology on them to. He was very interacted with trying to get the kids to stay in school. He even went and tried to persuade a girls father to letting her stay in school not quit to go work at the family restaurant like the rest of her family that didn't finish school. He made the class interesting so that the students would stay interested and actually learn.

This movie reminds me of Dangerous Minds.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree, Chelan. As opposed to giving up on them, he would not. He walked into a very precarious position, with a very full plate. They are the misfits, the kids no-one wants. He has the unbelievable patience to handle the demands of his job as a teacher and role model.
