      fr when I want to school, if I wanted an actual full 8 hours sleep I would have to go to sleep at 9:00... which is right as I would be finishing homework. Which is why I skipped literally all of my homework, as had I done it every night I probably wouldn't have had a social life

    It's sad that schools don't really teach you the real life skills but rather, some useless information that we'll probably never use later in our lives unless we pursue an academic path. That's why a lot of teens are so unprepared for independence when in the past, teens were perfectly capable of surviving on their own because they were forced to learn real life skills. A lot of schools also fail to protect victims of bullying but when the victim stands up for themselves, they get in trouble (this seems to be a common trope in America).

He's had years of experience, we used to be an all boys school, and back in the day kids would chuck the teacher's stuff out the window and on to the road if they looked away for too long.

      @borkbork4124 Před 2 lety +32

      It wasnt until I become a cololege student that I could treat sleep as more sacred-I now had the chocie that if I didnt want an 8am class, I didnt have to enroll. There are always exceptions though, where the class I need is only offered in the morning, but now I have a strict sleep schedule that allows me at least 8 hours of sleep that is consistent throughout the week. Every semester that is not the case, and now taht I am working again that doesnt always happen, but THE DIFFERENCE a good nights rest does is astounding! Now that I am not in primary school, before I watched this video I had forgotten how hard it was to wake up at 6 every morning to catch the bus. This reminder was well needed-it has not been many years since I graduated high school for me.
      tldr sleep is a necessity and school start times need to accomodate for that, especially for k-12 students.

  • @christopherulrich164
    @christopherulrich164 Před 2 lety +2936

    I personally didn't mind the tests in highschool, however I know a lot of my friends did,
    What destroyed my soul the most, was the constant, excessive homework teachers gave, not realizing that every other teacher was giving homework that day (nearly every day) creating several hours of homework every night, leaving no room for extra curriculars, or even relaxing or socializing time, sending you into a spiral until your motivation is gone and your soul is destroyed. I saw this in nearly every single person within my friend group.

      exactly, and those teachers would even take up the extra curricular periods in school to complete the so called syllabus. Moreover, a lot of students (including me) have extra classes too, and its not even like i'm lagging behind in any subject but my parents want me to be a topper for some reason. Like, the whole day its just school to home, home to maths class, maths to science, science to social science. And even then when i use my pc just for 2 hours, they say i play a lot. This shows that the education system is literally brainwashing people

    School. Really don't miss it! The amount of breakdowns I had. The amount of homework given. The stress even. Even years later, still having to deal with the stress due to being forced to keep it suppressed for the longest time. Didn't help being at home either. Wasn't allowed to let out emotions anywhere, so that only made the days of school so much more stressful. Took my chance to drop out during the pandemic and WOW the difference is huge! Doesn't feel like your trapped at all AND have your free time being free! The school system either needs to change for the health and safety of those studying or close down. You learn so much more outside of school than in the buildings themselves.

    This is why I think personally that homeschooling is so good. When I went to school, I was homeschooled but with a co-op. We were only on-campus two times a week, those being Monday and Wednesday. On Monday, I had to arrive by 8:05 am, and that was just because I had an extracurricular art class. On Wednesday, I had to arrive by 9:05 am. And on normal days, I usually got all my work done in about 3 hours because I didn’t have as much fluff that school adds. It was, and still is, astonishing to me how quickly all your work COULD be completed if schools allowed you to. And at my co-op, we got to choose which classes about science, history, etc. And the teachers were great too. If only normal schools could be like that.

    I once asked the exact same question, “why does school start so early?” they answered “well, when you start early in the morning, your mind is refreshed and you’re able to focus on tasks” sounds pretty bs to me. we don’t need to be waking up at 6am to feel “refreshed” to do schoolwork. sleep early they say well no shit when you gave us 2 projects and 5 assignments in one day and asked us to continue at home or else you’ll get yelled at. we have lives outside of school, we have other things to worry about, to improve, to do. we shouldn’t make school our life but instead a part of life but sadly that’s the reality of it.

    The moment that I, a 'gifted student', started getting chronic pain out of stress, the mentity I already had of "this is clearly wrong" just got hammered down much more. It doesn't help that my school decided it would be a great f*cking idea to try to push me to take many different tests to many different famous schools here in the area. The thing is: I had a goddamn breakdown in front of the coordinator because of that. Isn't it nice?

      You should try looking at societies outside the west, you might lose all hope. I've lived and taught in Taiwan for over a decade (currently senior high), and... oh boy. Typical student is up by 06:00, in school around 07:30 at the latest for their pre-class class. Seriously. Usually this involves some kind of review test from their homeroom teacher, or general study. Then it's class from 8:25 to 17:10. Pretty rough, huh? Doesn't end there, most of them will head to a cram school after that until as late as 22:00, when they'll finally get home so they can do their homework. Add in time to eat, shower, wind down, and a lot of them aren't getting to bed till after midnight. Weekends? Often more cram schools, homework, or prepping for tests. Holidays? Pretty much the same. If you think this sounds like child abuse, I agree. But on the plus side, it prepares them for a lifetime of underpaid overwork in a country where it's still not uncommon to hear about people dying from exhaustion at work.

      Listening to a lecture has a 5% retention rate. While teaching something you found out to someone else has a ~80% retention rate for the person doing the teaching.
      People also don't know how to train their memory (which is a muscle that needs to be trained). Imagine spending a lot of money for years to learn a language but aren't even able to effectively speak it.

First bell rings at 7:50 and class starts at 8:00 then we have 6 classes. If it's a day where we have "AdViSoRy" then we have 7 classes. School ends at 2:32 and the bus gets you home by 3:30 (any later and the buses will be late for the elementary school runs)
      If you have sports, you'll usually be busy from 3:00pm to 5:00pm or 6:00pm every weekday, with games usually on Saturdays. If you do marching band, then you'll be showing up almost everyday from 6:00pm to 9:00pm for practice out on the school fields.
      For me, this means that school and sports take up at least 8.5 hours of my day. Add in the ideal amount of sleep (8 to 10 hours) then that would be around 16.5 to 18.5 hours of my day used up, and that isn't even with Homework time added in. (It's really just too variable to use, but I would say at least 1.5 hours a day)

      @@KujiraJrBake It can always be argued that there are benefits and drawbacks to both sides. I'm going to stick with social media as being the worst of the two, as I don't know anyone addicted to going to school to the point of their own detriment. Social media is literally designed to addict you by exploiting your nature.
      School doesn't really have anything as attractive that sinks it's hooks in a person to crave social validation (as far as education is concerned). Definitely not on the level of social media. School is not structured in a way that rewires a brain to search out a dopamine hit every 15 seconds. Infinite scrolling is.
      Arguing on the premise that "forced" equals "bad" is a short sighted position. There are tons of things we're forced to do, that are good for us. Our body forces us to breathe and that's very beneficial.
      More importantly: what would you be right now if you hadn't went to school?
      The average parent doesn't or isn't going to take the time to educate you because they're busy trying to make a living. And if you hate school so much, that would mean you're likely not going to willingly search out the information the school system is teaching...

    I can back this up. I've recently changed from an ordinerey high school, to a high school for people who suffers from nerological disorder, like Autism and ADHD. For me, the change needed to happen, because I didn't mentally have the space for anything else in my life, outside of school. In the special class, we have later start times (9:45 am), and end at (1:15 pm). The later start of the day, allows me to fall into a more comfortable sleeping scedual for me, but the early ending allows me to have after school activities. My grades are overall better. My life feel less overwhelming. It's great!

      @UnkownUnkown01 Před 2 lety +199

      I have ADHD too and didn't know that school for ppl who suffers neurological disorders made people with adhd change to the school too, damn, I might start considering changing to that type of school when I get to high school because school is really hard for me and mostly in subjects where you have to pay attention all the time (Like tecnology, in my class of tecnology we just open our school computer, open some crappy program and teacher start telling us what to do and to follow his steps) and follow steps, it's very hard for me following steps and get lost within 2-3 mins already of following steps and I always end up screwing up the thing and having to ask my teacher for help and to repeat some things and he sometimes gets a bit p*ssed of and says he won't repeat it again and so at the end I can never focus on things and end up screwing up resulting in bad grades of the subjects. And because of that since I completed elementary school I've been struggling a lot with maths, I've always been bad in maths my entire life but usually in elementary school had really no trouble in maths, yeah I would get either 5 or 6 in my math test (Here where I live 4 and below is a bad grade) and in rare ocasions a 4 or less, since I'm in middle school and started seventh grade I never, ever got a good grade in maths, and it's not an exageration or anything, like im serious I never passed any math test my entire year, My lowest grade was 0,75 and my highest 3,25 ... Throughout the year, I never even made it to 4. and since obviously I failed ALL my math tests I had failed all semesters and got summer homework and didn't enjoyed the summer because my teacher gave me 190 math excercises to do the entire summer, it doesn't sound much but each excercise took like 20 minutes to make and i'm not even joking, each excercise was very long, I started doing the hw like on 29th June and finished ALL the excersices just one or two days before the big test because like 13 days before school started we had a big test we would all have to take the people who failed all math semesters, me and other 2 students. And I luckily passed it with a 5 (somehow) because obviously all the concepts in the excercises were in the test and after like 3 months of hell doing all the hw me crazy dude gave me I literally remembered them just like I remembered the first day of school last year, I think I was the only one who passed and the other 2 dudes who didn't had to repeat the entire seventh grade, i'm in eight grade now but i'm better at maths because I took a math test about a week ago and got the results 4 days ago and got a 4, even my teacher complimented me because I really did improved a lot but yeah. Going back to the first thing I talked about in this bigass long comment was abt schools for ppl with nl disorders. And tbh idk how the hell i'm going to graduate high school because I also read adhd gets worse with time so yeah I'm already considering maybe going to one of those schools for when I get in high school and see that my grades are crap

    A lot of adults tell their kids that “Your teenage years are the best years of your life.” When really you:
    - Get next to no sleep almost every night.
    - Have to move classes in a few minutes without being late (even if the class is across the school)
    - Are expected to act like an adult while being treated like a child.
    - Have almost no time for yourself because of homework you get.
    - Have to deal with other kids who tend to be way more judgmental around that age.
    - Try to ignore all the stress from lack of sleep and schoolwork, etc.
    - Deal with your messed up Circadian Rhythm.
    - Listen to people tell you over and over that you need to get up early because you’re always late for school.
    - Are just always tired and stressed out because of your responsibilities and everything.
    Teenage years are *not* the best of your life, I’d give so much to be able to go back to my younger age, it was much better then.

      @FallenAngel there needs to be structural change, and in the meanwhile people need to learn to take shit into their own hands. There is no doubt about it that shifting the school schedule forward an hour or two would benefit most people. However, complaining about a problem that you have magnified by making bad decisions is stupid. Shifting school an hour forward would not fix most people’s dysfunctional sleep schedules, it would only accommodate it. In the near future, there will probably be no changes to school schedule, which means you need to figure out why you’re sleeping so late and fix the problem. A small part of the problem is that you’re going through puberty and your sleep phase response is naturally delayed. The elephant in the room that people are willfully ignorant to is that they simply spend too much time on their phones too late at night, during a time where their body is not evolved to deal with. I support pushing school schedules forward an hour and I also think daylight savings time shouldn’t exist but you cant just ignore any personal responsibility

    I'm a teacher and one of my firm beliefs is that standardized tests are damaging our students and their education, particularly in creative problem solving and imagination. I have plenty of coworkers that blame phones, but, me, I blame the tests. I believe they are also mentally damaging just due to stress alone!

      Its not just that. When we all get home we are completely burnt out. So we take a nap. Which would be a logical choice. We wake up 6-9 PM. Then remember: Oh man, I forgot to do that assignment. But by the time you wanna even try doing it you have to go to bed again which is definitely hard after just sleeping to get ready for the next day. And this cycle repeats. Every single day. It doesn't just affect someone physically, but also mentally. Which is basically said in the video.

    The sad thing is though, that here you are ONLY talking about sleep.

      amd not only that, because of the environment of the school has, even the students themselves become an issue to each other, all the drama, the bullies, the situations events, etc. Because of how already the students are usually tired throughout the school, this makes them more irritatable, and more sensitive, more likely to become a "bad egg"

      The problem also lies on the children themselves. They always sleep late because of the addiction of using devices and night. It's even not uncommon for children to flex how late they sleep. Even if a school starts at 8 or 9, the pupils will take it for granted and sleep evne later

    • @toothless2323

      @@Salad_09Zel that’s also true. However, just like the guy in the video said, if teenagers got to bed earlier, they would just lay in there waiting for their sleep to kick in. I think that you have a point that a lot of kids make it worst by staying up late. But that is not the root of the problem. It’s like saying that if Adults do that then it’s also their problem. Sure but for adults it’s different because the hour at which society and market wakes ups reflects the sleep rhythm of adults. You see what’s happening? It doesn’t start 4am, just like schools shouldn’t start 7am. That’s the root of the problem. Kids make it worse, but when you take that out of the equation kids are stool 2/3 hours short of sleep. And that’s the main point of the video

    Back when I was in high school, around 2002, a teacher read the class a study that experimented with a school that started it's day about 3 hours later than average. Our school day started about 6:45 A.M. This school in the study started at about 10:00 A.M. and their records showed the students doing much better. They were more interactive in class and got better grades. Even back then they knew this and to this day haven't changed it. Those poor students.

      Not to mention being tired of making "friends" aka people to hang around to not look alone. As I had to switch schools 6 times due to my family always moving houses just to their convenience.
      After each time I switched schools the more I was disconnected from people who I made as friends and the less I valued them, since I would regard to them as temporary, due how my parent's would move houses again just on a whim.
      I was shocked when to one of those schools with every class from kindergarten to college. To have friends from the start of school to the end, how much I envied the people there..
