If schools used sex appeal like pretty much every other industry in the world: our students would pay attention, content would relate to real life, and teachers would make more money. Imagine if the goal of school was to actually get students excited, moving around, and feel relieved after class. Now imagine if we actually talked about the things we're all thinking about and forced them to have fun. Maybe then our profession would be researched based.
On second thought, lets put them in a small room, tell them to sit down in rows, shut up, and only use two of their five senses. I'm sure there's plenty of science behind that.
