Still not studying
I would like to stay out of any political considerations in this teachers' strike, and without discussing whether it originates it or simply splashes it. Although I confess that, as a teacher, I would love that the students witnessed another possible way out: in order not to harm the Education and training of their students, and to respect the daily transcendence of work in the classrooms, that the teachers rehearse another subject of protests and exercise them after their schedule ... To resort to the right to strike, which bothers so much to the political officials in office, as the last resort resource, and in the event of not reaching a agreement in their demands.
What a great example for the day when, in fulfillment of the function professor, we have to demand to a student not to delay or neglect their studies with other activities that hinder or distract them from their student duty. What a good occasion to remind him of the value of the work every day..., one of the pillars of school success.
Meanwhile, strike hours are lost school hours... and students continue without studying. This has a huge impact on the quality of Education.
