Education in America
#12
RE: Education in America
Quote:The root of the problem is the entire industry we've built upon the current school system and how the system conflicts with the way that children and adults alike naturally learn.

Oddly, though, people had no trouble learning before under such a system.

I agree with the OP. The problem is cultural and not biological. Far too many kids expect a teacher to be an entertainer, and why not. We have built an entire culture on being entertained 24/7 365.

Anyone who has not done so should go watch the 1976 film "Network." Unlike the fucking bible you will see a prophecy that came true.
