Failure Rate in schools for Maths

Why our children are failing Mathematics and Languages. Since our government introduced the OBE system makes the learners not to focus in their studies. They dont know their tables and spelling. What we need to do, to overcome this problem. Dear teachers come with a solution to solve the problem

Corruption of councillors

Dear colleagues what is happening to our wards. I'm seeing councillours enriching themselves forgetting about poor people on the ground. The Zuma Government promised that they will curbe all the misusing of monies but I'm still seeing people Toyi-toying complaining with sanitation, roads, electricity and water. We need solution to help our Government not to go down the drain.

Corruption at schools

Dear fellow colleagues
I need to know why our principal's are so corrupt when it comes to finances of the school. The principal's are protected by the Department of education while our children are suffering at school not having the textbooks and exercise books for writing. How can we solve the problem when it comes to the delivering of stationaries.

Implementation of grade levels

Dear colleagues our department is playing hide and seek games by promising that the implementation for requirements to proceed to the next grade is not yet finalised. We as educators, we tired of this system of guessing thyat the child is passing or failing. Why are they saying the implementation will be next year while our facilitators are saying it will be implemented this year. Dont you think there is a contradiction among themselves. I need to know how are going to solve this problem.

Gauteng in 2013 shortage of water

Hi! Guys is it true that Gauteng province will be running out of water in 2013. What would happen to the poor souls, because they say we need to prepare ourselves for future. Do you believe that or not it will happen as Moses profectised.

Computers vs Type writers

Is it necessary to use type writers to type our question papers and also making recording sheets. The computers arte the one's that are fastest to use in our generation. Computers you can be able to calculate word sums unlike type writers.

1. Which of the two is best to use?

The use of Blog for communication

The communication is a skill that needs to be used by everybody. Learners in class should be able use the blog to communicate with their peers. What we need to understand the blog is a tool that needs to be utilise by learners to send stories to their peers. Do we think that Grade one's can be able to use the blog in class unless they use their home language. Although we know that learners are capable of using technological skills unlike the older people. I think the blog can be given to learners who are doing grade 4 - 7 in primary schools, but foundation phase can create pictures because they won't be able to send stories to the other group members.

Learners in senior primary school can communicate with their peers from the other countries and also to send pictures of their own. Learners can be able share the information with their peers and teachers. They can communicate with their favourite stars and also to review their projects by using assignments.

Do we think learners in Grade 1 can be able use the Blog in classroom situation?
Are parents intersted in using the blog for themselves or they afraid of facing challenges in life?
Is the tool blog safe to be used by any person?
