Any ideas for a "School and Society" paper?

I have to write a paper and give a presentation on it in a few weeks. I can pick ANY topic I want. If you have any interesting or controversial ideas please send em my way. It just has to deal with education and how it impacts society. Its very broad.

So far my leading topic is The Pygmalion Effect.

Anyone have any ideas?

“lord of the flies” is a great start of society

Interesting. This would require me no doubt to reaad the book.

More ideas people. This forum seems to be smarter than most of the forums i belong to. Jesus Christ said “With great power comes great responsibility” You need to share the wealth.

Here’s an idea: Do your own bloody work!

I was planning on that actually. Does anyone have any ideas?

I wrote one on Lord of the Flies here, but it doesn’t really have anything to do with education. And it’s not a very good essay.
