oh, good. i usually have to stand on this side of crazy by myself.
i do not claim that my post above has any practical use in today's society. but really, i am not a very practical guy. rather, a true idealist. what i suggest is nothing short of utopia.
cheers to the new paradigm!

I think one of the keys is to let students learn at their own rate.

I agree with you. This is a reflection of society in general, not something that is isolated to high school students. Our culture is so full of lying and cheating right now it is insane. How are high school kids supposed to do something good when everywhere they look people are doing the wrong thing?
I agree with the posters who point to parenting. That is the first line of defense here but it would seem that most parents are allowing the TV and the schools to raise their children. If that is the choice that they make, how can they be surprised or disappointed when their children end up reflecting the poor values of our decaying culture?
