English term

would suffer

Non-PRO English Other Psychology sentence
"Because children and young people, especially teenagers, are so interested in themselves and one another; there are so many things that they really want to learn about that could be dismissed in the classroom context as personal and irrelevant, and what I am keen to open to question is the idea that the learning they are meant to be doing in the classroom would suffer if they were also able to explore some of their immediate concerns and preoccupations."

What does "would suffer" mean here?

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (3): Yvonne Gallagher, Sheila Wilson, philgoddard

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
