Gates Says Use Stimulus Funds For Education

In addressing the National Conference of State Legislatures, a group of
5,500 in Philadelphia Bill Gates stated that the $100 billion in economic
recovery funds that will be used for education should be used to create
things like charter schools. He also said that to improve education
teachers should be held accountable for the performance of their students.
Gates believes that the use of online learning can be beneficial, and the
development of assessment tools should be made better in order to assess
students, teachers and schools. He said that right now teachers are being
given credit because of their sonority or their master’s degree and that
does not ensure the best education for students.

He also believes that schools with bad ratings should be replaced with
charter schools and that class size does not matter with the proper
effectiveness of teaching. By the way if you need quality
ADHD boarding schools may I recommend this resource. In addition to the ADHD
boarding schools, they can also help with Alternative boys schools as well
as various types of therapeutic boarding schools.

Gates believes that to correct the American education system the right
questions need to be asked and that they are not being asked. He said that
out of the industrialized nations the United States ranks number 10 for
students that graduate from college.

Bill Gates is credited with through the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
for donating hundreds of millions of dollars to improve primary, secondary
and college education.
