school is gay

The longer I live the more I understand Einstein’s conclusion that EDUCATION IS WHAT REMAINS AFTER YOU’VE FORGOTTEN EVERYTHING YOU’VE LEARNED IN SCHOOL.

After you learn to read, comprehend, write and critically analyze, everything else you need or want to know you can either learn on your own, or, in some cases mostly in the arts and hands-on trades, find a one-on-one mentor/tutor/apprenticeship.

With the AMOUNT of information seemingly doubling each year it’s beyond me how schools can find time to “teach” anything more than a scanty awareness of any specific topic let alone “educate” anyone to any useful proficiency.

Frankly, the only useful thing I took away from 5 years in high school was learning to typo.

As a teacher I see this claptrap to be part of the dumb and dumber society.  Tell these researchers to stuff it and spend some time teaching the people they study.

what these researchers overlook is that american kids’ homework consists largely of governmental propaganda

let’s take something as basic as the meaning of money—american educators are forbidden to tell kids that the monetary system’s a fraud that’s bound to keep weakening the value of the dollar—although such information would be easy to digest, the government wraps it in mystery so that even adults never learn the facts

those same adults then wonder what’s going on as highly paid executives lay them off & hire workers overseas
