@calestous@maamikron42 in South Africa, most academics aren't trained to teach. Only nursing educators must have education degrees to teach -
@Savo_Heleta True worldwide.@maamikron42 -
@calestous@Savo_Heleta but teachers are trained to teach (at least in my World) hence: teaching students only for compulsory scheme. -
@maamikron42 Discussion over the last few days generated very good ideas beyond the compulsory vs voluntary dichotomy@Savo_Heleta -
@calestous@Savo_Heleta fine. as long as we don't loose sight of target - I'm fine.

@calestous that's why it's all the more important that school teachers should have it. also: in most cases parents love their children ./ -
@calestous ...and that helps parents to wish their kids well and support them (if they can). that's not the case for teachers ./ -
@calestous ...(let alone for young people obliged to teach...). believe me: it's a very bad idea. -
@maamikron42 It is already being done varying scales in many countries. Am a trained elementary school.teacher by the way -
see, trained teachers are worth something,
@calestous :) -
@maamikron42 They also know some things... -
@calestous indeed :)
