  1. Saber Tooth Curriculum Chapter 3 – The Real Tiger School

  2. Characters • Dr. Peddiwell – Professor/Narrator • Pedagogy Professors • Parents of school-aged children • Teacher – Founder of Real-Creek School of Fish Grabbing (later renamed to School of Creative Fish Grabbing) • Principal of school • Traveler 1 and Traveler 2

  3. Issues in Public Education • Teachers blamed for: • Curriculum • System of Methods • School Philosophy • Teacher Preparation was standardized • New Teacher Requirement – “Teacher’s Bone”

  4. Teacher’s Bone • Scratched on bone • Fish eats’ credits in pedagogy • Fish eats’ credits in 1 more standard cultural subject • 1 paleolithic day = 6 meals = 6 fish eats

  5. Elementary Teacher Education • 15 fish eats’ credit beginning fish-grabbing methods • 15 fish eats’ credit horse-clubbing methods • 12 fish eats’ credit tiger-scaring methods • Certificate on bone for 30 fish eats in educational theory & practice

  6. Secondary Teacher Education • More specialized • 5 fish eats’ credit in special methods of each cultural field taught • 22.5 fish eats’ credit in paleolithic education • The majority of the bone should be covered in subject specific training

  7. Remediation Courses • Professors of fish grabbing claimed that students came to university with sub par fish grabbing foundation • They requested an additional requirement of 15 more fish eats’ credit in beginning fish-grabbing • Horse-clubbing professors “Equinologists” also complained of more remediation needed but they were only rewarded with an additional requirement of 3 more fish eats’ credit in horse-clubbing. • Tiger-scaring professors “Defense engineers” also complained and received no fish eats’ remediation requirement

  8. Pedagogy Courses • Beginning – Practical suggestions of classroom management and teaching methods • Good teacher vs bad teacher examples • Specialized professors resented pedagogy professors as pseudo scholars

  9. Making Pedagogy Respectable • Organized subject systematically into small units • Required more specialization within pedagogy • Required all members to engage in research • Made subject hard to learn • Lectured exclusively • Attempted to make courses duller • Emphasized specialized terminology

  10. Modern-Day vs. Paleolithic Teacher training • Education is often not viewed as a real profession in comparison to engineering or more specialized fields. • Teacher training programs have also been revamped to resemble other degree programs with specialization that may not be useful in the classroom. • Teacher bone is similar to teaching certificate requiring certain credits and a test.

  11. Call for Reform • Teachers graduating from the program were sufficiently logical, scientific and dull and could not handle their students. • Parents rebelled • Professors observed and came up with new teaching philosophy

  12. Progressive Teaching • Too much direction given – instead let the child decide what to learn & how to learn it with limited teacher intervention • Instead teacher guides students • Students showed no improvement (but they hadn’t caught any fish in the past either)

  13. Privatization • Teacher proposed students practice fish grabbing in an actual creek. • She was fired • Parents encouraged her to open a school of her own – Real Creek School for Fish Grabbing • A traveler saw her and said she could use real fish as well – fish bonked on head and transferred to nearby water hole for hands on practice. • Renamed School of Creative Fish Grabbing

  14. Real Tiger School • Local school (that originally fired the teacher) were pushed by parents to have real fish as well in artificial tanks • Not creative enough • A different traveler visits principal and says he’s seen real saber tooth tigers • 2 old toothless tigers are caged and brought to school for the Real Tiger School

  15. Comparison with current educational issues • Teaching methods and programs come and go. Some don’t even get fully utilized until they are thrown out in lieu of a different, better program. • Capturing Kids Hearts, Cooperative Learning, Inquiry based learning, Constructivism, Flipped Classroom Model, Project Based Learning, etc.
