But let's just say you're not going to be in the classroom anymore. I can't believe he made me the new lunch lady. These kids better appreciate my cooking. The principal punished Mrs. Dale by making her the new lunch lady. What would you do with her?

Will the students report her to the principal? Or will their summer get ruined? Karen, Karen, what's this I hear from the rest of the staff? That you're not using the critical thinking method in your teaching? Critical thinking method? That's so old-fashioned. I use the muddle method. I don't live in the past. Well, I'll have you know, here at Rebel High, we're standardized on the critical thinking method. It's the number one most used teaching style in the world. Well, the benefit of the muddle method is it adapts to each student's style. Adapts to their style? Don't you mean the students have to teach themselves? How are the students supposed to be successful in life if they only learn what other people tell them? That's so out of date, and my style is the future. Are you calling me old and out of date? I didn't say that. You did.

(Coming up in this video) what to do in my classroom. (Coming up in this video) Well, I'm the Principal, (Coming up in this video) I decide what goes on around here. (Coming up in this video) These kids better appreciate my cooking! OK, class. It's the end of the year and it's time to turn in your final reports. Remember the topic is best teacher ever. And because I am so fair, I'm giving you 3 minutes before the deadline to turn it in. Now everyone get in line. Now, who's first? OK, Abby. Oh, this is all about me. I'm sure you'll get in 'a'. who's next? OK, Zoe, let's see what you have. Oh, this is about Mrs. VanderHolt. Probably a 'D'. Hopefully, the next one's better than this. OK, Mia, let's see what you got. I have a question, Mrs. Dale.

is because of the way you're teaching them. I'm not teaching them. I'm using the muddle method. You mean the method where you don't teach? They have to learn on their own. The one that's based on fear, uncertainty, and doubt. Oh, you're getting familiar with it. I'm impressed. Oh, I'm familiar. Good. Then are you ready to switch the whole school to it? No. What I told you is here at Rebel High, we use the critical thinking method. And you didn't listen. Well, I don't know what makes you think you could tell me what to do in my classroom. Well, I'm the principal. I decide what goes on around here. And if you think you have a better idea. I've got a new job for you. What? You're making me the new principal? Well, I'd be satisfied just being the vice principal. That's not exactly the job I had in mind.

Clocks aren't stupid. They're objects. People are stupid. Like some of my students. OK, I'm curious. What are the five teaching styles? Yeah, that way we can get this over with. Oh, I'm glad you asked, Mia. Well, of course, there is the lecture-based method, inquiry-based, kinesthetic, the old-fashioned one, critical thinking, and there's the muddle method, which is the hot new thing! I haven't heard of any of these. What are we supposed to do? Google it. That's what I do. I think to make things easier. Each one of you should take one of the five methods. Then what? Then come back and do a presentation, and I'll pick the best one. Well, what happens then? After I pick the best one, that person will be excused. And the rest of you will start the next project for summer school. We're going to start with lecture-based. Who wants that one?

A deadline is a deadline. Who is next? Crystal's getting a zero on her paper because it was late. What will happen with the rest of the students? Here it is, Mrs. Dale. And guess who my favorite teacher is? I don't care because it's too late. Here you go, Mrs. Dale. You're the best. Give me that thing. OK. Anybody else? Oh, of course. Eli is late. Here you go, Mrs. Dale. I think you're going to love this. I hope you would love a zero. I'm getting a zero. She can't be serious. You guys, what are we going to do about Mrs. Dale? We wasted our semester for nothing. Well, she shredded our papers. There's nothing we can do. All we have to do is print another one. They can't let her get away with that. I heard she's been doing stuff like this for years.

Nobody's even ever heard of that. Yeah, I know. Piece of cake. How did you figure that out? There was only one article on it. And guess who wrote it? No way. Don't tell me. Mrs. Dale? Yep, it was her. No wonder she acted like all the others were no good. Well, we need to do something about her. Oh, hey, kids. What are you still doing in school? We're in summer school. Yeah, this is fail is making us do it. Mrs. Fail. Who's that? Yeah, it's Mrs. Dale. That's what all the students call her. Yeah, Master of the muddle. The muddle method? How do you know about that? Well, she made us do a research assignment about it. And we all failed. Except me. Why did you all fail? Because she thinks every other teaching method stinks. Yeah. And that students should learn on their own.

Really? You think so? No, I don't think so. Why do you think they call her Mrs. Fail? Yeah. I mean, I agree with Krystal. We'll just be here for a couple more days. We can change our airline tickets. OK, fine. But we're going to call you to find out when you're done. That way you can meet up with us. Zoe and Abby get to go on their European trip. Will the other girls get to catch up with them after summer school? Totally airlines flight 226 with non-stop service to Paris, France, is now boarding at gate 45. Flight to 226 to Paris. Is that us? No. We're flying to London first, remember? Oh, that's right. Paris is our second stop. Do you think Cristal and them will be able to meet us there? Yeah, I'm sure Mrs. Dale will go easy on them.

Oh, lecture. I know what that is. OK, Crystal, I'm glad you have experience with lectures. Oh, yeah, that's easy. I get lectured all the time. OK, great. Now, who wants inquiry-based? Oh, I'll take that one. That means questions, right? Well, Mia, you tell us that when your report's done. Wow! The Eiffel Tower is bigger than I expected. Yeah, I have to send Mia a text of this. Now, who is brave enough to do kinesthetic? I'll do it. Well, good luck with that dead-end Luke. Did she text back? No. I think they're in class right now. Oh, it's still daytime there. And now who wants the icky one critical thinking theory? I already have one. Same. It's down to you two. You. Take it. Fine. Wait. No, I'll take it.

Principal Winston must let her get away with it. I can't believe what happened, you guys. She wouldn't really flunk you? Would she? She would never do that. That would mean we have to do summer school. I wouldn't be surprised. If she makes you guys do summer school, then you guys can't go on her European trip. Should we postpone it? But we already have our tickets. And I've always wanted to go to Paris. And London. We should complain to the principal. Yeah, I bet he'll do something about it. Well, that's a waste of time. Yeah. If he hasn't done anything before, he's not going to do anything now. What is this muddle teaching method, anyway? Nobody knows. She says it's revolutionary. I think she's just lazy. Maybe just to keep us guessing or confused. I think she does it just to keep us guessing. Mrs. Dale is one tough cookie.

I don't care what you said or I said or whatever. I want you to use the critical thinking method. I don't want to hear anything about this muddle nonsense. Here are your grades. I got an 'A'. I only got a 'D'. Well, that's still passing. You two passed, but the rest of you failed because you were too late. I tried to be nice and gave you 3 minutes, but you still messed it up. So for those of you who got passing grades, congratulations. For those of you who didn't, I'll see you here for summer school all summer long. Any questions? I didn't think so. So I guess this means no European trip. Well, at least you guys got to go. No way. Then we're not going either. No, you guys should go. She's just going to make us do some type of project, and then we can catch up with you two.

And I don't think that's teaching. Really? Eli, why did you pass? Well, because my report was on the muddle method, and she's biased. I can't believe it. You know what? I'm overriding her. You all pass. I don't want to see any of you here again all summer. Let's go. And I believe I'm going to have a talk with Mrs. Fail. Tell her we said bye. Yeah, she can go climb a mountain. Oh, good one. Give her a cheerio. And au revoir. Italy is so cool. Oh, I just got a text from Crystal. What's it say? They're coming! You wanted to see me, Principal Winston? Why, yes, Karen. I was speaking to the students, and I have some concerns. Don't listen to them. They don't know what they're doing. That's why they're in summer school. The only reason they don't know what they're doing

With Dale, the fail? Probably not. Welcome, everyone, to summer school. Aren't we all excited? Oh, how exciting. I should be in London right now. I should be hiking Everest. Yeah, it's supposed to be Paris for me. I want to play Roblox! Final boarding call for flight 222, with non-stop service to London Heathrow, is now boarding through gate 17. Too bad that's not our flight. Yeah, it is! I have some bad news for you. We're not going to be doing any chemistry work. Oh, shucks. No chemistry? Guess we're not going to need these. Hey, careful with those. That's school property. You want detention? We should give them a call when we land. You think our phones will work there? Oh, I never thought about that. You're all going to do a group project. It's going to take teamwork. And maybe you'll even learn something.

Was I supposed to write about you? No, I'm completely fair. This paper doesn't have to be about me. Well, it seems like everyone that is not writing about you is going to get a 'D'. Well, I make the grades around here, so, Are you ready to turn it in or not? Can I make one really quick change... Really quick? OK, well, that's fine. As long as you get it in before the deadline, because I'm really fair. Oh, thank you, Mrs. Dale. Who is next? OK, Crystal. Mrs. Dale, I wrote this about Mrs. Brown but aren't you guys, like, really good friends? Well, it doesn't matter, because you're out of time. Well, what am I supposed to do now? Give me that paper. my paper! Like I told you, it's too late. But I was right here. I only missed it by 5 seconds.

Are you guys having fun? It's really fun. It would be more fun if you were here. Yeah, I wish we could come, instead of being stuck at summer school. Do you think you can meet us in Italy? We sure hope so. Us too. Bye. So, in summary, the model method is teaching through fear, uncertainty, and doubt. In other words, it's teaching based on utter confusion. It's completely up to the student to learn it on their own. Eli, that presentation was perfect. You get an A-plus. And for the rest of you... you all flunk and have to continue on with summer school. I can't believe it. I guess we're going to be in summer school forever. Yeah. And there goes our trip to Europe. Congrats, bro. I guess you don't often do summer school anymore. Hey, thanks, man. Yeah. What was that about? The muddle method?

Group project? That stinks. No. Maybe we'll get done faster. Yeah, we'll divide it up. Then we can stop wasting time and go to Europe. The topic of your group project will be the comparison of teaching styles. To teaching styles? Yeah, I think she means hers versus good ones. You mean she has a teaching style? Yeah. It's called chaos and confusion. Mia's right. It's like when the tests have nothing to do with what was covered in class. It's not working at all. Did you try taking off the gloves? Oh, that's right. What was I thinking? So who all here can tell us the five teaching styles? Oh, I know. OK, Eli, why don't you tell the rest. There's the good style. And the other four. No. And that's exactly why you're in summer school. No, I'm in summer school because of that stupid clock.

Fat chance on that one, Natalie. At least it could work for you, Eli. The muddle theory. The muddle theory? Good luck with that one, dude. Sounds like a Harry Potter character. You should try calling them now. Oh, I don't have any bars up here. Oh, OK. Well, that's it. You all have three days to do your reports, and one of you will be dismissed from summer school, and the rest of you, not named Eli, will be here for the rest of the summer. Mrs. Dale expects a report from every student. There has to be a way for the to skip summer school. Now it is time for your presentations on the different teaching styles, the four of them and the one good one. Wow. It's so pretty here. You should try now. Oh, OK. It's ringing. Oh, hello. Hi, Crystal. It's Abby and Zoe. Oh, wow.

(Coming up in this video) (Coming up in this video) OK, Crystal. (Coming up in this video) Mrs. Dale, I wrote this about Mrs. Brown. (Coming up in this video) Well, it doesn't matter, (Coming up in this video) because you're out of time! (Coming up in this video) Give me that paper. (Coming up in this video) -Shedder Sound- (Coming up in this video) So, I guess this means no European trip. (Coming up in this video) At least you guys get to go. (Coming up in this video) (Coming up in this video) I guess we're going to be in (Coming up in this video) summer school forever. (Coming up in this video) And there goes our trip to Europe. (Coming up in this video) You should try calling them now. (Coming up in this video) I don't know what makes you think you can tell me
