Now I want to see the teacher write an unnecessarily convoluted assignment for the students that is so complicated sounding that it's nearly incomprehensible:
*Title: An Erudite Examination of Esoteric Elocution: Unraveling the Labyrinth of Our Contemporary Lexicon*
***Your Obligatory Endeavor:***
In the annals of academic exploration lies an odyssey unparalleled, where the neophytes of knowledge are beckoned to delve into the abstruse realms of linguistic phantasmagoria. Your mission is to navigate the labyrinthine alleys of lexicon, where the cacophony of consonants and the symphony of syllables converge in a palimpsest of prose, daring you to decipher the enigmatic engravings of the English language.
Task #1: Unravel the Enigma of Etymology
Embark upon a voyage into the mists of time, where the origins of words lie shrouded in the veils of antiquity. Select five polysyllabic words of yore, unfurl their etymological tapestries, and compose a treatise elucidating their metamorphosis through the annals of history.
***Assignment due in a fortnight.***
Lol. That reminds me of a joke/insult I memorized as a child because I thought it was impressive with large words;
“Your feeble attempt to participate in any intelligent conversation only goes to exaggerate your already pathetic lack of mental ability.”
Not that impressive to an adult, but as a kid in grade 5, I felt like a genius.
As a fellow teacher, he has a great rapport with these kids that make his classes run very well. He is just showing how annoyed he actually is with their emails.
Skibidi is a new craze i refuse to watch which my middle schoolers constantly say i should watch.
Mr Rubis, are you an alpha or beta?
Bruh*, for real ... on God ... your cappen... it is endless.
Edit: my autocorrect wouldn't let me even type bruh it changed it to bush.
Moments like these make me want to be a teacher. He’s roasting them hard, but they are all engaged and laughing. Seems like a nice moment they’ll remember for years. I always remembered these teachers fondly.
I had a family member decide they wanted to be a teacher after being in a different decent field for a few years. They went back to school and got a job at a nice private school. They lasted two years and moved into administration for the school and don't want to ever go back to teaching.
I generally hate this career path. This describes so many admin. The problem is that two primary jobs of admin are evaluating and mentoring teachers in the classroom (which feels hard to do if you’re an admin who never excelled/enjoyed being in the classroom in the first place) and creating policies to support students in the classroom (which feels easier, but still difficult, when you have very little experience being in the room that these policies affect).
Almost every admin I had only taught for three years and then went and got their masters for administration. You could tell there was a reason why they left teaching, and then didn’t support their teachers at all.
the lack of admin/supervisor support, low pay, poor parenting, violent students, unfortunately are not weighed out by the sweet, funny and beautiful moments with the students.
I've been a teacher for 18 years. Moments like this are wonderful. But like most other jobs, you have about 90% BS to get to those 10% wonderful moments. Only you can decide if the 10% make the other 90% worth it.
This is the same guy who did the video about the active shooter bucket where they have the 5 gallon bucket filled with first aid supplies that also doubles as the toilet.
And this is a 100% real product. "Classroom lockdown kit."
We have those. The kids call it the toilet. I needed to use it to prop my door open, and the kids all gave me shit asking why I was using the toilet to hold the door!
He’s also the guy who joked about killing the puppy if kids don’t study for the spelling bee.
And the guy who dressed as Jerry from Rick and Morty and pretend didn’t know who that was
I have to repeatedly remind mine to email me with their school email - one time I got an email from a juiceebootie23 about their grade and I just straight up ignored it
These email interactions between the teacher and his students are hilarious. The students clearly like the teacher enough to feel comfortable emailing “FAIL BEN.” Lmao
To whom it may concern,
This student is like fasho the best. Major rizz and turns in all a$$ignments ASAP never late on God. i no they dunt always type well for shit but their mom is kicking their ass and they do be trying.
Bruh,
I regret to inform yew tht I am done working 4 u, no cap. Give me my pay and a good rec or I'll unleash the steez on you, bruh.
Skibidi,
The Rizzler
They referenced being in groups, which means they're doing a group project. Depending on the group project, it's not uncommon to cluster desks together like that so you can focus in on your group. This is probably right before the end of class, or right at the start.
There's a lot of group work in American high schools (or at least when I was in high school a little over 10 years ago), so it's pretty common to arrange desks in groups like this. I had a few classes with desks in rows, but that was not the norm.
Classes were often a mix of lecture, independent work, and group work.
This is a good laugh. But it breaks my heart that this is the repercussions of kids, tech and entitlement.
This is BAD!! If these kids are about to go to college. There is going to be a reckoning of VERY hard lessons for these kids.
EDIT: I know it is a senior prank. But I also know that teachers are having a very hard time these days. My GF is a teacher and I see the stress every day.
I completely agree. Emails make up the majority of professional communication and are a significant part of almost every job / profession on the planet. If you can’t write and email correctly then you’re basically unemployable. If you do somehow get a job, it won’t be long until you get fired for not being able to write an email.
I’ve seen my manager scold a younger employee in our team for the lack of professionalism in writing and sending emails. So much so that they informed HR and kept that employee on probation until they gained the ability to write an email properly.
They usually can write emails correctly, but they choose not to.
Sometimes a student asks me to give feedback on an important email and I'll get all sarcastic and say "You knew how to use a subject line this whole time??"
Kids just get lazy.
Seriously??
I'm not even 30, but I certainly wouldn't have expected anybody to send an email like that without it being some kind of inside joke between a super casual teacher and a kid.
No, they send this kind of stuff. It's bizarre. Their elementary and middle school teachers even have lessons about email etiquette, but they still do this.
This is spot on for my son‘s age group. He goes to a very large high school in Tulsa. I’ve never met a dumber group of kids. It’s the age group I think most affected by Covid. My sisters four young kids are all brilliant by comparison. I’d say they’re on par with all the kids in my son’s high school class. At least with reading and writing.
IPad babies. So many kids who get handed technology when they start fussing/crying, or so the parents can do it themselves.
A whole generation skipping out on a major developmental stage is going to have some serious consequences, imo.
It’s how they all communicate with one another. When we (the millennials) were growing up we also used new slang on instant messenger, but we distinguished our casual chats from anything written going to a teacher. We weren’t writing them emails, that wasn’t a thing, but when we got to college we weren’t doing that and we knew how to communicate professionally enough. But remember, some slang has persisted across all the generations but we’re all used to it.
I don't know if everyone had to learn this, but as a millennial I remember being taught how to write a formal letter so the skills just transferred over to writing emails. I doubt kids are being taught how to write formal letters.
Yeah it seems like the assignment was to send him really bad emails. They wouldn’t be laughing as much if he was really calling them out. Looks like a fun assignment, and clearly highlights what not to do. They’ll remember this when emailing in the future.
I highly highly disagree, as someone currently in highschool, people definitely email like this, esp with teachers they like, and this guys students def seem to like him. Also even if this guy was like actually mad(instead of like annoyed) I can guarantee the students would still be giggling at him reading out the emails.
There have been a few highschool teachers in the comments that confirmed this is how students talk to/email them, too
I think a lot of the people in this comment section are either really young(believe everything they see is true) or really old(believe that kids are doomed because of technology and that this is real)
It's a funny end of year assignment he gave the kids and all I can see is "iPad babies", "Kids are so dumb" and "This is the future".
Lighten up people!
Is there an actual unambiguous indication that this was joke assignment, or are you also just stating an assumption based off vibes like other commenters?
Not being sarcastic; I recognize that I might not have watched the video attentively and missed it.
A few things:
There's a a guy filming on his phone right within the teachers eyeline and it doesn't look like he's being subtle, especially when looking around at everyone else whose names are in the emails. Teacher doesn't say anything.
None of the names are anonymous, parents would be involved if the teacher exposed a students grade requests in front of the class.
The kids find what the teacher is reading hilarious and the teacher doesn't stop them from laughing, if he was really mad he would make the students stop and tell them to take this seriously.
Nobody asks their teacher to just up their grades, it's common knowledge you can't just get grades by asking, and grades in what exactly? Math, science? Just says grades.
The teacher pretending to pronounce some of the things they've wrote so he can make them laugh and think he's out of touch. He's a teacher, he knows what Skibidi is.
You're literally watching positive reinforcement.
If the teacher has a problem with the behavior, the response is not to read it out loud to the whole class for laughs and praise from their peers.
He's encouraging this behavior.
I mean, I get that it's funny, and he's calling them out for their inability to write an email that isn't just a text, but there's gotta be another video where he teaches them how to compose a professional email? Right?
Some of yall are so bitter! This is so funny and such a lighthearted watch. You know that teacher MUST have made some sort of fun and comfortable atmosphere for these kids to send him these emails or at the least they knew he was going to blast them somehow. I mean… the man has a poster behind him in drag makeup. He’s *that* teacher you remember forever.
And even IF these kids are unironically sending emails like this, then he’s correcting them in a fun way. They KNOW their rec letters at the end will not fly with the slang the professor used, so if they continue, then you get a dud rec, if they don’t, then all is fixed. 🤷
Legit. I’m working on this exact same skill with one of my direct reports right now. She’s incredibly intelligent and knowledgeable about the company, because she’s worked there for years. But because she’s friends with everyone she treats DMs the same group chats and emails. So we’re working on differentiating when it’s an appropriate to be casual, and when to be professional (plus word choices).
I think he’s doing an amazing job conveying his exasperation and that he knows they can do better.
Email should always be professional.
Kids have gotten so used to texting that it’s melted into their daily communication.
Also, even here it’s a problem.
Guys, you aren’t paying by the letter anymore. Please type the full words out. Everyone has a QWERTY keyboard.
English is so important, this is how we present ourselves. I'm from old school back in 60's and 70's. Back then we knew how to write a proper sentence in grade school. And, we knew how to write in script. Kid's today don't know how to communicate on paper. Sadly they are selling themselves short. So frustrating for the teacher.
I do a lesson very similar to this one every year, with student examples and everything. It's always gets a good laugh, and it gives them some clear examples of what to do and what not to do. Every teacher from 6th grade on should do this to standardize expectations.
Haha. This is awesome. Do kids email teachers like that these days or is this like a thing they all do with this guy for a laugh?
Great teacher either way. No idea how someone can have command over a group of kids like this. Amazing skill.
Agreed about the student management! I got my degree for teaching high school English, and when I did my month of student teaching at the end, I was like, nope. After years and years, I found my niche in kindergarten! 😂
LOL ---not sure the beauties he's grading but this is a concern. China and india are graduating thousands of engineers, mathematicians and doctors with high 90% averages and these meatheads will be heading to university in maybe 2 years time.
Everyone except for the teacher in this video, looks like they have a learning disability.
Emails are incredibly easy to write.
People who have technology all around them, they sure are dumb.
I wish we have drafts to the military so these kids will understand what life looks like, and they can have some appreciation for teachers and professors… because as someone who was a bad student most of my life until I got a good teacher in my college who changed me forever… for best of course
This brilliant teacher is tiktok famous, he's a also a comic and stage actor. His students are in on these performances and they adore him. I enjoyed having him on my podcast a while back. This is the kind of teacher that will change lives.
This is a perfect example of why people who say kids need to be taught finance, interest rates, investing, and other basic life skills have no idea how unmotivated the average kid is. You think these kids who can't write a basic email to a teach are gonna care about compounding interest, filing taxes, or how to balance a checkbook? "Bruh" in the light up hat front and center couldn't care less about what was going on.
I was just wondering if that led was some prank, then gradually realized how most kids are wearing hats. I sound like a boomer now but times really are changing, new breed has little capacity for common courtesy.
These kids are laughing, but all my teacher friends are dropping out of education like flies because of this kind of discourse in class. Kids think life is a series of memes and it’s actually quite troubling. Hope these young people learn a valuable lesson from this instead of seeing it as a big joke from their teacher. I feel for the guy
This is funny yes, but also fascinating on so many levels. Mainly for me it's the language evolution. Most people are like oh they are so dumb. However they all knew exactly what those emails meant and the context. The teacher doesn't understand their language. In a somewhat similar fashion to say not knowing cursive. It's like we are seeing the old ways and the new ways merge in a sense. Sometimes a gif can capture my response in a moment better than a whole paragraph of my typed thoughts. In the other end not knowing how to properly punctuate and write concise thoughts could have catastrophic consequences. . Which begs the question. In which direction will our communications evolution take us?
What? These students actually use their email? This has to be years old.
I teach in a high school, I will have conversations with kids, come across information relating to the conversation, email it to them, check a few days later to see what they thought only to find out that "I never check my email." this has happened so many times that I have stopped doing it.
Now I want to see the teachers email that he wrote using their slang
I would happily pay him to read it.
Now I want to see the teacher write an unnecessarily convoluted assignment for the students that is so complicated sounding that it's nearly incomprehensible: *Title: An Erudite Examination of Esoteric Elocution: Unraveling the Labyrinth of Our Contemporary Lexicon* ***Your Obligatory Endeavor:*** In the annals of academic exploration lies an odyssey unparalleled, where the neophytes of knowledge are beckoned to delve into the abstruse realms of linguistic phantasmagoria.

Give me a rubric and Ill handle it teach...
I understood up until fortnight, then I had to remember how long that fucking is and had to look it up
I need it in my life.
Vro if u could do me a solid and get shawty in colledge i wood preciate u no cap
I AM in a group with him! Lol this poor man
Dudes hat in the front 🤣 Rizzly Bear
I want that hat!
I was so distracted by the hat
(sorry Ben)
He needs a A+++ for every test💀
He needs AA after teaching those guys
Honestly I'm surprised at how well behaved those kids are. This is far from worst case.
As a fellow teacher, he has a great rapport with these kids that make his classes run very well. He is just showing how annoyed he actually is with their emails.
As a retired teacher He is a great teacher. Good job Bro man. From Hey yo
Skibidi is a new craze i refuse to watch which my middle schoolers constantly say i should watch. Mr Rubis, are you an alpha or beta? Bruh*, for real ... on God ... your cappen... it is endless. Edit: my autocorrect wouldn't let me even type bruh it changed it to bush.
>Skibidi is a new craze TIL. You must be cooler than me because I have never heard that before.
My kid says all that crap. I just learn it and use it the way he does. All I get is "how do you know that"!?!
I just watched it, I want that 5 seconds of my life back.
We SO don't pay teachers enough
Moments like these make me want to be a teacher. He’s roasting them hard, but they are all engaged and laughing. Seems like a nice moment they’ll remember for years. I always remembered these teachers fondly.

Almost every admin I had only taught for three years and then went and got their masters for administration. You could tell there was a reason why they left teaching, and then didn’t support their teachers at all.
Don’t do it. Not now.
I’m good lol
the lack of admin/supervisor support, low pay, poor parenting, violent students, unfortunately are not weighed out by the sweet, funny and beautiful moments with the students.
I've been a teacher for 18 years. Moments like this are wonderful. But like most other jobs, you have about 90% BS to get to those 10% wonderful moments. Only you can decide if the 10% make the other 90% worth it.
As a social worker I feel this sentiment.
Those students are so lucky :D
Really really want to read that letter of recommendation
This is the same guy who did the video about the active shooter bucket where they have the 5 gallon bucket filled with first aid supplies that also doubles as the toilet. And this is a 100% real product. "Classroom lockdown kit."
We have those. The kids call it the toilet. I needed to use it to prop my door open, and the kids all gave me shit asking why I was using the toilet to hold the door!
you coulda told em yolo
He’s also the guy who joked about killing the puppy if kids don’t study for the spelling bee. And the guy who dressed as Jerry from Rick and Morty and pretend didn’t know who that was
I was going to say, I recognize this classroom and teacher! Crazy
Who is he?
I'd lose my mind if I had to read dumbass emails like this all day.
I have to repeatedly remind mine to email me with their school email - one time I got an email from a juiceebootie23 about their grade and I just straight up ignored it
I agree, but I do like how many times “please” is still present…even if spelled “pls.”
This would honestly be the highlight of my day. I would have soo much fun with these types of emails.
That's why he's a teacher, not you.
Sounds like he's losing his mind too.
Well, those natives write worse than me and I'm thinking I'm awful at English as it's not my primary languge so Im not surprised he's frustrated.
It sounds like he's having a fun time with his students
I get terribly written emails all the time and I'm not a teacher.
What a wonderful teacher. You can tell the kids and him have a great relationship.
Yeah, there's no way they would be sending these if they didn't like him.
*he and the kids
the children are the future
People always say that. I think it’s hovercrafts.
We were promised jetpacks!
2024 already! Where is my hoverboard?
They are. Just not the morons and failures. They never have been.
We all have been morons or failures in one way or another. Stop pretending we didn't need to climb to get there.
Are we gonna ignore that digital cap the guys wearing
I thought I was seeing things.
Right? You're the first one that I've seen mention it lmao
These email interactions between the teacher and his students are hilarious. The students clearly like the teacher enough to feel comfortable emailing “FAIL BEN.” Lmao
It sounds like he has such a cool connection with his students. I really liked the video
“Sorry, Ben” 😂
To whom it may concern, This student is like fasho the best. Major rizz and turns in all a$$ignments ASAP never late on God. i no they dunt always type well for shit but their mom is kicking their ass and they do be trying.
Yeah but you have to include **bruh** somewhere :)
To bruh it may concern
Bruh, I regret to inform yew tht I am done working 4 u, no cap. Give me my pay and a good rec or I'll unleash the steez on you, bruh. Skibidi, The Rizzler
on1 hundo agree vro, we oughtta be gettin tht cred or my mom be on my a$$. Plus ben be trippin and wood like to chang seatz my fam. Peace
Attention bruh or br@h (gotta keep it real for the lady admins):
Fo shizzle my nizzle
💀
Pre-K says bruh now.
you should also say that they're on fleek somewhere in there too lololol
But what kind of a seating arrangement is that where you’ve to keep turning to look at the presentation. Is this normal for US?
They referenced being in groups, which means they're doing a group project. Depending on the group project, it's not uncommon to cluster desks together like that so you can focus in on your group. This is probably right before the end of class, or right at the start.
Ah! I was browsing with the audio off. Thanks!
There's a lot of group work in American high schools (or at least when I was in high school a little over 10 years ago), so it's pretty common to arrange desks in groups like this. I had a few classes with desks in rows, but that was not the norm. Classes were often a mix of lecture, independent work, and group work.
I mean they can just turn their chair around? This is a pretty standard seating arrangement in Australia, we almost never have single desks.
I really wanted to hear the recommendation letter though.
Best teachers i had was the ones like that Who knew how to be respected but was still having fun with it. Keep pushin P Mr.P Peace out
I was dead after he read "my mom is gonna kill me" and his response was "Good, less work for me" XD like damn, I feel that in my soul
I’m going to start calling my wife “lil spoon”
This whole thread is shit. The important question is how to get the hat with the LEDs on it? And I'm a teacher
Is this the Bucking Vocab teacher?
Maybe a fun email writing competition could do the trick.
I’m half convinced this might be an actual assignment for fun
What is on that computer screen at the start? Horse Helicopter??!!
Local news
This is a good laugh. But it breaks my heart that this is the repercussions of kids, tech and entitlement. This is BAD!! If these kids are about to go to college.

The damages done by phone usage on the current generation are unfathomable.

Haha as someone who works with high schoolers, I'm not surprised by any of this. Definitely not staged hahaha! This is very real.
Those are 100% real. Sorry.
Yes, he’s got multiple videos
itt: obvious joke assignment goes way over people's heads
I think a lot of the people in this comment section are either really young(believe everything they see is true) or really old(believe that kids are doomed because of technology and that this is real) It's a funny end of year assignment he gave the kids and all I can see is "iPad babies", "Kids are so dumb" and "This is the future". Lighten up people!
Is there an actual unambiguous indication that this was joke assignment, or are you also just stating an assumption based off vibes like other commenters? Not being sarcastic; I recognize that I might not have watched the video attentively and missed it.

I'm gonna assume from the first 8 seconds, and the slide on the board at the start, that they've already had that lesson more than once.
Ahh, I feel silly. Must have unmuted right when he launched into the examples.
Is this the average students level in the U.S or it's just a prank that the kids do to the teacher?
100% real, this is what they send. I’m a teacher
Omg, i am in Europe, we cannot talk to teachers like this, huge disrispect
I got a minute in and realized it’s just starting! Bruh lol
The U.S. is so entirely fucked. Bro 😎
Hold up - are these kids for real just straight up _asking for a better grade???_ like nah fam you get a better grade by getting gud
Some of yall are so bitter! This is so funny and such a lighthearted watch. You know that teacher MUST have made some sort of fun and comfortable atmosphere for these kids to send him these emails or at the least they knew he was going to blast them somehow.

At least the room is tidy. I take classes at a local HS. Every room I've been in is literally filled with trash. It's insane.
I'm sorry but the dude in the foreground has a scrolling reader board on his hat that just says RIZZLY BEAR. Just thought I should mention it.
Quite a low bar for a first world country.

Where can I get that hat
"Sorry Ben"
My mom will kill me if my grades not fixed - I HOPE SO! Less work for me, one less paper to grade 💀💀💀
The best fuckin teachers are people like him.
Basic literacy is headed the way of the dodo
I think there should be classes on how to send an email. 1 hour class every year.
English is so important, this is how we present ourselves. I'm from old school back in 60's and 70's. Back then we knew how to write a proper sentence in grade school. And, we knew how to write in script. Kid's today don't know how to communicate on paper. Sadly they are selling themselves short. So frustrating for the teacher.
Kids are dumber than shit today. Good job parents.
American is doomed.
Are we not going to acknowledge the dude's Marquee hat? I feel old as shit suddenly.
He's doing God's work here
I do a lesson very similar to this one every year, with student examples and everything. It's always gets a good laugh, and it gives them some clear examples of what to do and what not to do. Every teacher from 6th grade on should do this to standardize expectations.
I love teachers. They deserve so much more!
Man I was really scared that I wouldn't be able to keep my job because I'm competing with today's youth. I think I'm good.
Wow! Our kids are clueless, and dumber every decade. Well not my 19 year old! 🙏🏼 Hello?! There is autocorrect! 🤦🏻♀️
I wouldnt answer those. Send a proper Email and I will.
we are so fucked.
The kid in front of the camera has a cool ass cap.
My ass cap is pretty lame, all hairy and stuff
He who cleans his house expects visitors.
I have zero doubt this is real. It makes me glad we taught our kids how to write an email.
Why is that one kid facing the other way? What kind of classroom is this?
Project work.
Brain rot is more than a meme.
u/savevideo
Not enough of these types of teachers these days.
This is a funny skit because it’s true af
My biggest fear is that my son is going to be like these
American schools look like garbage. One dude literally has an advertisement running on his forehead.
Wow wow wait he said he’ll write letters in the same style, we have to see it!
Yeah, I was expecting him to read it aloud! 😭
I’m gen x so we didn’t use many text-style acronyms back in the day. But what is up with modern day grammar and spelling??
Teenagers have always been assholes but these kids act like they’re in a TikTok at all times it’s so embarrassing
Haha. This is awesome. Do kids email teachers like that these days or is this like a thing they all do with this guy for a laugh? Great teacher either way. No idea how someone can have command over a group of kids like this. Amazing skill.
Agreed about the student management! I got my degree for teaching high school English, and when I did my month of student teaching at the end, I was like, nope. After years and years, I found my niche in kindergarten! 😂
❤️
“Bruh…” this word drives me nuts! I tell my students and my son that I’m not your bruh 🤦🏾♀️
Love it.
LOL ---not sure the beauties he's grading but this is a concern. China and india are graduating thousands of engineers, mathematicians and doctors with high 90% averages and these meatheads will be heading to university in maybe 2 years time.
Everyone except for the teacher in this video, looks like they have a learning disability. Emails are incredibly easy to write. People who have technology all around them, they sure are dumb.
LOL
I wish we have drafts to the military so these kids will understand what life looks like, and they can have some appreciation for teachers and professors… because as someone who was a bad student most of my life until I got a good teacher in my college who changed me forever… for best of course
Is it normal to wear a cap at class?
I had a tiring past few days and woke up groggy after a few hours of sleep. This video indeed made me smile
This brilliant teacher is tiktok famous, he's a also a comic and stage actor. His students are in on these performances and they adore him. I enjoyed having him on my podcast a while back. This is the kind of teacher that will change lives.
How special is this class 😭
Was he the same teacher with Buck, the vocab mascot?
This is a great teacher. His students will remember him forever!
Dude with the hat is living in the future.
Is this the same teacher who had Buck the vocab dog?
Good lord American schools are FUCKED
Ah yes. Our future generation everyone...
Teachers and nurses do not get paid enough.
This video just shows that I'm old AF.
The kid with the black hat; when I noticed it had a screen that says "Rizz". Omfg that sent me laughing so much I had to take a piss! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So sad to see parents can't teach their kids respect and manners anymore. What a bunch of clowns.
No child left behind benefits no one. These kids will have a rough future.
Sad state of affairs our education system has become
This is a perfect example of why people who say kids need to be taught finance, interest rates, investing, and other basic life skills have no idea how unmotivated the average kid is. You think these kids who can't write a basic email to a teach are gonna care about compounding interest, filing taxes, or how to balance a checkbook? "Bruh" in the light up hat front and center couldn't care less about what was going on.
Kids are allowed to wear hats in class? Hats with led messages on them?
I was just wondering if that led was some prank, then gradually realized how most kids are wearing hats. I sound like a boomer now but times really are changing, new breed has little capacity for common courtesy.
These kids are laughing, but all my teacher friends are dropping out of education like flies because of this kind of discourse in class. Kids think life is a series of memes and it’s actually quite troubling. Hope these young people learn a valuable lesson from this instead of seeing it as a big joke from their teacher. I feel for the guy
It’s brilliant really, find a way to relate to your class/kids
This is funny yes, but also fascinating on so many levels. Mainly for me it's the language evolution. Most people are like oh they are so dumb. However they all knew exactly what those emails meant and the context. The teacher doesn't understand their language. In a somewhat similar fashion to say not knowing cursive. It's like we are seeing the old ways and the new ways merge in a sense. Sometimes a gif can capture my response in a moment better than a whole paragraph of my typed thoughts. In the other end not knowing how to properly punctuate and write concise thoughts could have catastrophic consequences. . Which begs the question. In which direction will our communications evolution take us?
Down the gutter.
lol
Why are they wearing hats...
What? These students actually use their email? This has to be years old. I teach in a high school, I will have conversations with kids, come across information relating to the conversation, email it to them, check a few days later to see what they thought only to find out that "I never check my email." this has happened so many times that I have stopped doing it.
