Very true

Anyone else bothered by the missing (3)?

I was not bothered. But I can imagine you could be. Just let it slide, if you can.

  1. Because government says so, therefore school says so. It's not right, but that's why. I get paid to teach all of you, not just one of you.
  2. No, but I get paid for this.
  3. Yes, but grading is a very good tool for motivating a student to get off their ass and do something. It's perhaps not healthy, but it works well enough for now.
  4. They're all in Finland.

Now that we are generations deep where school teachers have never had a job or training outside their Marxist classes in University, I think for the most part they wouldn't even understand what you're saying if you were to ask them these questions.
