Others added that teachers are making use of online resources and computer programs to aid in learning. There are some students who wouldn't change their science classes for the world, and there are others who wouldn't mind if their classes somehow got rocketed to the moon and never came back. It seems evident that there has been some sort of breakdown between less enthusiastic students and teachers who are trying to squeeze in just one more chapter. Many students would like to place full blame on the teachers for trying to teach too much difficult material too rapidly. It is the student's responsibility to learn just as it is the teacher's responsibility to teach.
Education is a two-way street, and there seems to be a traffic jam in both lanes.
Students have their own suggestions as to how they could improve their performance in science, such as slowing the pace. Many suggested eliminating the lab period. But I think the best solution is to compromise. Teachers need to spend more time on difficult material so that there is enough time to fully comprehend and learn it. Students have to spend more time and effort to learn the material, as well as letting the teacher know when there is confusion.
