Can teachers make an education a good or bad one?

Yes, with a good teach you have the will to learn and are more comfortable and have more respect for yourself and the teacher (i.e. not sleeping in the back of the class)

No. It's what you pull out of your education that counts, a teacher is like a book, it only delivers the information, but you need to interpret it for yourself.

School blows...we should just be home schooled or be encourage to study whatever we want at our own pace.

Bull plop i tell you! BULL PLOP!

seriously though kit, that really blows. Supposedly, from the media and what your parents tell you, anyone wearing a cool, useful and bloack trench coat is a child molesting, mother f@king, 7-11 jacking, murderous, drug dealing, criminal.

which is just another example of how racist we are as a society.

In Aus, we gotta wear uniform but it's not like it's a strict thing. As in, you have to wear the uniform, but shirts out, collars undone, lengths of skirts anywhere from just under the crotch to ankles, ties or no ties, platform shoes, boots, whatever. so long as you kinda look like everyone else. And what about hair! I think the record for one girl was eleven separate clips at once as well as hair ties, bows, etc.
As for the education system!
IT sucks. The whole point is to give you marks for uni. They couldn't care less if you learnt something or not, as long as you can regurgitate a definition and an evaluation (memorised during 'study', of course) during the exam. The only subjects i remotely think have nothing to do with memorisation are english and maybe drama so far- our last two assessments in drama were to do with improvisation, so no memory work. And english, put down any resistant reading you like in big words and you're fine.
okay, that's my rant for now...

When I graduate, I'm going to be a doctor, and people are going to come to me looking for treatment and prescription drugs, and I'm going to give it to them. Is anyone scared yet?

we had to do that on the fly in our Humanities class. the teacher would randomly (on days with time left over) pick some person to do a talk on a topic... (random)

I talked about sleep
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

The FS community, the FS mods, Freespace in general...after all, we all know about it pretty well, right?
"I condemn false prophets, I condemn the effort to take away the power of rational decision, to drain people of their free will -- and a hell of a lot of money in the bargain. Religions vary in their degree of idiocy, but I reject them all. For most people, religion is nothing more than a substitute for a malfunctioning brain."  - Gene Roddenberry
