Re: School and Education
I enjoyed reading all those words and expressions. It is interesting to see how fast a language is evolving.

How to educate a child to become broad-minded ?
I have read this issue in a previous vocable of mine and found this conversation very interesting;
It is important that our children (or grandchildren) see leaders of all shapes and colours, African barbies as well as European ones, fat people in office as well as thin people in office, people with different opinions in positions, I wish they could grow up in a multicultural world. Children should find around them inspiring models who look like them, even in books and even in dolls. I have never seen a fat Barbie and I would like to see one. Diversity is not just about race but about beliefs, tastes when there is respect and understanding for the others.

Re: School and Education
Hi Muriel,
Right but...
When watching other people "in position", we see what we want to.
Thus, nowadays' youngsters can see top models and singers, soccer players and drug dealers but rarely scientists and industrials.

Hi everyone,
Any comment?-> (The Daily Texan) Americans suffer from inadequate foreign language education
The United States is largely monolingual. In fact, only about 15-20 percent of Americans consider themselves bilingual, compared to 56 percent of Europeans surveyed in 2006 by the European Commission. This difference is problematic for a number of reasons, especially on the 40 Acres, where we like to think that “what starts here, changes the world.”

Re: School and Education
Hi Gérard everyone
Americans suffer from inadequate foreign language education In internet, more than 90% of the websites are written and created in English. And even when you see some sites in other languages, they also give you the option to translate into English. Why bother themselves with learning an other language ?

Re: School and Education
It's true that language-learning is time-consuming . Once you have chosen to learn a language you have to keep learning it all your life. I hope one day Europe will be interesting enough for the Americans to start learning our languages. I keep my fingers crossed for that.

How schools cope with teaching children who speak 14 different languages
Hi everyone,
-> How schools cope with teaching children who speak 14 different languages
How the schools where nine in ten pupils do not speak english as their first language help bring their pupils up to speed

How english schools cope with pupils speaking no english at their arrival at school
what is moving in this story is that the motivation is very high : "The parents are aspirational, they want their children to go to university, to be doctors and highly skilled professionals." Sure the children are sharing the thoughts and hopes of their families! Every pupil in our european and developed countries should be aware of how lucky we are . But of course if we take everything for granted, we cannot value Education and educational opportunities as they should be.

Barbie Exposure May Limit Girls' Career Imagination
Hi everyone,
Last week, it was my grand daughter's birthday and before this day, I told a friend that I was about to choose a gift... I was rather upset when she suggested a Barbie! I responded it was the last thing I would offer my grand daughter as I hate Barbie! LOL
I was right! I let you read!![Wink](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_wink.gif)

-> (Scientific American) Barbie Exposure May Limit Girls' Career Imagination
Researchers had groups of girls play with one of three dolls. One was a Barbie doll dressed as a fashion model in a clingy dress. A second Barbie was a doctor in a white coat and jeans. The third doll was a Mrs. Potato Head.

Re: School and Education
I think it is wise to let your child have a lot of different toys ! in this way he can choose for himself his own toys and influence himself what he what he wants to become.But toys such as dolls or action figures can influence a child’s ideas about their future, she added.

Barbies are for European girls; if an American girl mimicks Barbie, it's intentional, she knows what she's doing. American women are far from being stupid.

Old tactic gets new use: Schools separte girls and boys the New york times

Hi everyone !
We all agree that Angeline learns differently from Angelo but is there evidence of substantial difference in brain development between boys and girls ? The idea of separating Girls and boys could, on the contrary reinforce stereotypes. What do you think ?
Single-sex education, common in the United States until the 19th century, when it fell into deep disfavor except in private or parochial schools, is on the rise again in public schools

Re: School and Education
I don’t agree with separating girls and boys... We are different but I believe that, we must learn to live together from we are children. To separate, why? I think that it could reinforce sexual stereotypes...
I would like to know other opinions

Re: School and Education
Hi Paula !
When I was a little girl, I was in a separate school. There were only girls. At that time there were specific jobs for boys and specific jobs for girls. Sex stereotypes were important. Nowadays we tend to think that each person has individual desires, thoughts, and feelings, regardless of their gender. it's not perfect but it's improving. It's sad to go backwards.
