I found this task quite interesting. I have always understood that people have their own opinions and they are entitled to them but I never knew that people could be so passionate and really put their opinions out there. The news group I joined was austv. People discussed different shows they have watched. One of them was on the documentry that was conducted about drugs being readily available in China. One of the commentors claimed how ignorant people are to listen to these men and then made a comment about blaming teachers. The comments that then followed about the use of teachers and that they are worthless then followed. I was shocked to see what people thought of teachers. This was a good experince for me because I learnt a new form of commuinicating on the internet as well as just how serious people take these discussions.

The answer is to pay them less, and try to get better professionals, but give them better conditions. Pay rate is NOT everything.
Better conditions? As in working in rooms other than classrooms?
As in working a 6 hour day.......as in having every weekend off....as in having a shitload of holidays.....
I find it quite funny to hear what you all have to say about teachers. Iknow a few and they are some the hardest workers I know. They definately don'tget every weekend off and half their holidays are preparing for the next term.It isn't easy being a teacher, I tell you what I bet most of you wouldn't lastmore than 5 minutes in a classroom.
