FUCK EVERYTHING.

Tests shouldn't be curved. Your score is your score.

However, if the majority of the class did poorly, the teacher's methods should be reviewed for effectiveness and the material revisited in smaller sections before the test is taken again.

Unfortunately we live in a world where schools are now factories mass producing a half baked education using the most useless of methods, and then people wonder why the young people of the world can't do anything for themselves.

They've been taught from day 1 not to.

Finally, somebody who agrees with my opinion on schools. Its all memorization, none of it is education. Instead of encouraging exploration and experimentation, and engagement, they encourage you to read something over and over and over again until you can drone it off at a moments notice, despite knowing next to nothing about the actual subject that said student is speaking about.

Seattle's Project-based Learning. I think it's still in the "experiment" stage, i.e only alternative schools are doing it (and have been for a few years). It's purpose is to mimic a real job: You're with a designated group of people you may hate or love, you have a packet full of some information and sometimes guiding questions ("write down your group's scientific procedure for this lab"), teacher tells you what end product they want, stands back, and waits for success/failure at the deadline for the project. 

The teachers are not meant to be hand-holding any of the students, will say "sorry, that's life, if he/she doesn't do their part then you can come back to me" if your partner is your worst enemy, and formulate the projects to intentionally require that you can piece together information. 
Anybody know any good stories online? I need something to do.
