I am currently in my first "block" of the Elementary Ed program on the West Campus. It is absolute CRAP! The internship placements are crap- they don't listen to your needs and won't take responsibility for giving you a placement 30 miles away while someone else in your class gets a placement that is 5 minutes away. The classes are useless. They are not teaching us how to teach. The professors have their own agendas and just like to hear themselves talk. The syllabuses are silly and ridiculously overworded. Like I sais USELESS. All we do is discuss our opinions on crap. No real assignments. No real tests. Not learning how to be an effective teacher. A WASTE OF TIME

Responses

I have a hypothesis that ASU is trying to direct large numbers of students into the education department - in some instances displacing the students from majors in which they have greater interests and abilities (and quite possibly better job prospects). Why? It's all part of the 'liberalization' agenda - creating a large underclass of unemployed and occupationally-liberal-sympathetic people in a highly misguided and deeply cynical attempt to break the conservative backbone of the state.
