Case: Preparing Small-Town Students for the Big World
A teacher spent most of her career working at a 5-A high school in the suburbs of a large city. She has relocated to a different state and now teaches at a 1-A high school in a very small, rural town. Many of her gifted/honors students would like to go to major universities; however, many of the gifted/honors students express extreme narrow-mindedness in class discussions. The teacher has tried and tried to explain what living in a large metropolitan area is like, in addition to the countless explanations that "not everyone would agree" with the students' perspectives. These narrow-minded perspectives range from the non-acceptance of various races, homosexuality, and religion. Students will only whisper the word "atheist," because they believe it is so bad. One student expressed that "if the coins in the U.S. say 'in God we trust,' how come we can't kick out the homosexuals?" How can this teacher help prepare her students for the big world outside of this tiny town?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This teacher can explain that there is so much more to life than their town. She can also use real life demonstrations and scenarios to keep students engaged. |

| Comments: This is a great solution, students need to understand that there are experiences and beliefs aside from their own, and they don't need to agree with them but they do need to respect them. |
