High school made less stressful; a roundup of high school horror stories and tips on asking your date to prom, preparing for college and much more.
Chairperson
Chairperson by Cleve School is as much about providing a place of safety to test skills and opinions as it is a place to book learn. It is difficult to zero in on eureka moments of most of the classes attended in high school and college, but there are two such moments that loom large in my high school days which gave impetus to the direction of the rest of my life.

The left hand stigma
During my childhood days, I was victimized as part of a marginalized minority. Obviously, I was not aware that something was wrong with me. Until out of a sudden, I was bullied in class for having problems to write a simple sentence on the class board. The school teacher tried to correct my posture, making it awkward for me to keep on writing the sentence. As a kid with a still developing brain inside of my skull, that was nothing that a short visit to the school psychologist couldn’t solve right? You might be wondering what was so offensive that had to be addressed to the principal office? I was standing on the board, with a position that favored writing with my left hand but I was actually writing with my right hand. I was 6-year-old when that incident occurred. I was the first of many.

Getting the Teachers Attention
Getting the Teacher's Attention by Cleve Douglas and I were friends. As an adult I discovered that he was almost a year and a half older than me which as an adult means nothing, but as a six or seven year old is more pronounced. His parents basically red-shirted him by starting him in school at age seven instead of at age six as was expected. This, as they hoped and as had happened with his much older brother, gave him a slight edge in athletics as he would always be competing with younger, less mature boys. I doubt if he needed an edge, because he was a superb athlete making All State in football as a senior in high school and earning a football scholarship to LSU.

How Learning Management Systems Help Tutors & Learners
The learning management system for schools has been a boon to the educational sector. Especially during the COVID crisis, technology has been playing a significant role in academics. Computer screens and tabs have replaced the traditional classrooms, putting immense pressure on teachers to deliver the best classroom experience. In this modern educational world, the classroom-based learning model is no longer adequate. To keep pace with the evolving arena and remain relevant, educational institutions are implementing e-learning and online learning as a combined approach. This is why schools have started using the Learning Management System. It is one of the new-gen learning strategies that schools use unique and creative software programs to make learning fun, insightful, and interactive.

Electronic devices and their influence on child development
Leading researcher Paul Morgan, a professor of education and director of the Center for Educational Disparities Research, said current policies recommend that school-age children limit their use of technology. Without parental involvement, children will spend less time on technology, and that is fine for them.

Contemporary exams do not match the student’s ability.
Students who are bad test takers because of the sensors associated with the test are unable to show what they can do in the spirit of limited tests. Failure to put the topic or concept to the test puts unnecessary pressure on the students and disrupts their learning. On the other hand, informal assessment programs that assess students' skills and knowledge are more effective and produce better results.
