Corporal Punishment

Being an elementary education major made it interesting for me to do the webpage on Professor Hartmann and corporal punishment. Even though Carl Hartmann was a college professor and corporal punishment in the 19th century was more directed towards younger students, as a future educator, it was interesting to learn about. It's sad to think that even though it is part of the past, it is still something that some students deal with when they go to school. There was a case not too long ago where a special education teacher was abusing her students because they weren't paying attention to her. We are supposed to learn from history, and we've learned that corporal punishment doesn't accomplish anything and yet, we see it still being used sometimes.
