I started my search by looking into the drop out rates across the country. I wanted to know how widespread the problem was. I searched a couple of websites but I was really surprised to find nothing that could help answer my question. They all talked about what they think is the problem or what can students do to be more interested in school, when the reality is that no student is the same and they all have different perspectives about school. Like for example I visited a website in look for clues so I can answer my question. I couldn't see where did the author of this website and I agree with most of what he said but when he spoke about what was the solution for this problem it spoke in the perspectives of the schools statistics and information about the students, but it sounded like he never took the time to speak to any of them to see what were there motives for dropping out or what types of situations where they going through that made them drop out of school, with all my respect I thought that the information was inconclusive, I think that there is a lot more reasons for a student to lose interest for there education.
What I mean to say that they say what they think is the problem without even asking anyone why is this happening to them. Is like a person that is trying to explain how does the propulsion system for a spaceship works when they don't know anything about it. They don't know what is in peoples minds to tell us what is wrong with people that motivation problems for school. What I plan to do is to ask people why to they feel like this, and try to find an answer for my question. That is if I can...
