Post Thoughts from the film Growing up Canadian: School

Growing up has become marked in school years but at the beginning of the 20th century most children attended primary school only. This bygone era is wonderfully evoked …

In the film they mentioned consequences of bad behaviour. Although it isn’t as physical now, students still get punished based on what they consider “bad” behaviour.

Although, practices like giving students the "strap", don't really exist anymore, a power dynamic between teacher and student still exists that may have stemmed from these practices

Large classrooms

Teachers were only required to comeplte schooling until grade 10 and had 3 months of teacher training. This differs from the extensive schooling and training we receive today.

traditional testing (eqao, memorization, spelling tests, standardized testing)

Physical punishment isn't used today, however the use of discipline creates a sense of embarrassment within students.

There is still training required to become a teacher, but it is much more formal now and takes more time to complete

# data[].attributes.body
Teaching involved corporal punishment when students did not conform to the narrow classroom rules in order to maintain the hierarchy between the teacher and the students. This was evident in the strap being given to students

structured classes

focused on memorization, reading, writing, and basic math

# data[].attributes.body
We continue to experience discipline but in a different way. Before, it was focusing on physical punishment but now teachers have resorted to self-reflections/mental realizations of their mistakes.

Now, attendance is being strictly monitored and is mandatory. Students lose marks when they skip class.

Historically, farmers were in control of the educational system which is why students attend class during the summer and spend most of the time working in the farm. Now, it is the opposite as the society influenced how schools operate/run which has changed the academic year.

- there are still two types of teachers: good or bad teachers that impacts their school experience

-still discipline in schools but no longer use corporal punishment

-teachers are still respected or at times feared by students

-classrooms still have unequal power dynamics

# data[].attributes.body
Although we no longer physically discipline students, the concept of disciplining students and maintaining a classroom in order is still seen today; we just do it in different ways.

We are still seeing the changes in how teachers are dealing with students behaviours and managing classroom. There was a shift from physical abuse to guidance and now we are seeing more workshops and certification courses to assist teachers

Following a curriculum that is built around a colonist perspective. 

# data[].attributes.body
Teachers still continue to follow a curriculum that is built from a colonists perspective, a curriculum that is not inclusive of all children. Therefore, as teachers, we always fight this embedded colonial system to make it inclusive for all students.
