According to the majority of Americans, women are every bit as capable of being good political leaders as men. The same can be said of their ability to dominate the corporate boardroom. And according to a new Pew Research Center survey on women and leadership, most Americans find women indistinguishable from men on key leadership traits such as intelligence and capacity for innovation, with many saying they’re stronger than men in terms of being passionate and organized leaders. So why, then, are women in short supply at the top of government and business in the United States? According to the public, at least, it’s not that they lack toughness, management talent or proper skill sets. It’s also not all about work-life balance.Although economic research and previous survey findings have shown that career interruptions related to motherhood may make it harder for women to advance in their careers and compete for top executive jobs, relatively few adults in the recent survey point to this as a key barrier for women seeking leadership roles. Only about one-in-five say women’s family responsibilities are a major reason why there aren’t more females in top leadership positions in business and politics. Instead, topping the list of reasons, about four-in-ten Americans point to a double standard for women seeking to climb to the highest levels of either politics or business, where they have to do more than their male counterparts to prove themselves. Similar shares say the electorate (选民) and corporate America are just not ready to put more women in top leadership positions. As a result, the public is divided about whether the imbalance in corporate America will change in the foreseeable future, even though women have made major advances in the workplace. While 53% believe men will continue to hold more top executive positions in business in the future, 44% say it’s only a matter of time before as many women are in top executive positions as men. Americans are less doubtful when it comes to politics: 73% expect to see a female president in their lifetime.

Twenty years ago, our classroom was a lot less pleasant.Very old-fashioned.We had fewer window, for example.There were five rows of desks, six desks in a row.Since everything was nailed to the floor, a student sat in the same place all day long.Oh, we had to be very strict.Now students move all over the room.They go to different areas for different subjects, and they write at these movable desks.The students are more mobile, and beca use they’re more mobile, they’re less restless, and because they’re less restless, they are more attentive.At least that’s the theory.And as a matter of fact, we really don’t have many behavior. problems here.
We use a modified open classroom system here at the James.I’ll try to explain what that means.Each student makes a work contract with his teacher.Basically, he agrees to a certain amount of work on a certain project.He hands the work in when he gets it done.He works at his own speed and plans h is own time.If he is particularly motivated in one subject—math, for instance—he can explore the subject more thoroughly than the others.But he must also complete his contract in arts or reading or social science.Freedom within a structured system: that ’s what we are trying to offer.
