How you going to hear what the teacher is saying when listening to music?

Wait you mean like you have time at school where you're not being actively taught? At my school and in the uk in general (i think) that was never a thing for us, studying was something we were meant to do in our own time

Slovakia here. The school is kinda crap. 2 times each week the whole day is subject called "Professional training", but we almost never do anything at all in there. Whole 2 days of nothing, I am being serious. It's basically just for attendance, and even that just partially. If you arrive 4 hours late, the teacher will sign you off as if you were there the whole day.

I hope it changes this year. I hope.

Also, math teacher allows us to listen to music during exams. That was her idea, actually.

But we have also integrated the phones into the process. Teachers send us notes we're meant to work with during classes, on our phones. Likewise we do exams on our phones. Adapt and overcome. This is already high school though. Only the first hear of high school is mandatory, now I am here because I want to study, not because I have to. I could leave anytime if I wished to do that.

That seems like a far more reasonable idea to me. You can't fight change. You have to adapt it to an achievable goal.

Nearly half of my time in public school (depending on the class) was time spent independently working on things. Time that the only thing between me and completing a task was disregarding the various noises my classmates were making.

Turns out: even when you do pay attention, reading comprehension is tough. 😂

So it's way harder if you don't.

Right..

Not paying attention makes reading comprehension more tough than if you were to not pay attention. Not sure I’m following

They just threw pencils and erasers at me if they needed me to listen. Most of what they were talking about was covered in the book so they just let me read it. The only exception was math.

Imagine getting dissaproval votes (or whatever we’re calling not downvotes) just for sharing a completely neutral retelling of something that happened to you lmao

Lots of Redditors recently joined it seems. And they aren't known for being the smartest people who properly utilise the voting system.

Did you read the "during study time" part of the comment. I certainly don't think student's shpuld be listening to music when a teacher is actively teaching.

This has been an awakening to Lemmy's philosophical and literate ideals.
