https://youtu.be/xYONRn3EbYY any STEMcucks out there I'd love hear your opinion on this.
DEFINITELY
NATION = A PEOPLE
AN ETHNIC GROUP OF SHARED VALUES
EXCLUDING DELETERIOUS MUTATIONS
STEM people shouldn't be given public platforms at all.
well i'm asking in terms of whether this approach is better or worse for students.
the guy is obviously some kind of neoliberal, forget him, just interested in the math education debate.
@༺པརབྱར།བསངཇ༻ DO YOU HAVE THAT GREAT ARTICLE, THAT I HAD ONCE BUT LOST, ABOUT HOW VERBAL MAY REQUIRE HIGHER INTELLIGENCE?
@Gil O'Teen I FAVOR PROJECT-BASED LEARNING
SO I PROBABLY AGREE WITH HIM
THE MAIN PROBLEM WITH MATH IS THAT VERY FEW NEED MORE THAN BASIC MATH PLUS BASIC ALGEBRA
99% OF THE WORLD'S MATH NEEDS ARE THERE
SO WE ARE WASTING EVERYONE'S TIME
TO GET TO A FEW WHO SHOULD GO ON
AND MOST OF THOSE ARE WASTED BECAUSE THEY ARE OBLIVIOUS TO OTHER FIELDS
THIS IS WHY CLASSICAL EDUCATION EXISTED
MATH ONLY MAKES SENSE IN BALANCE WITH OTHER AREAS
LIKE PHILOSOPHY, LITERATURE AND HISTORY
AND FISTING OF COURSE
@diversity_is_racism I checked through bookmarks, can't find anything.
THANKS FOR CHECKING
Did it come from me?
I WISH I COULD REMEMBER MORE ABOUT IT
QUITE POSSIBLY
People should learn the math they need for the field they need. Pick a profession, then learn what's necessary
I don't remember sending it
not this wishy washy crap of wasting 9 years
I FEEL LIKE YOU WERE THERE WHEN IT WAS MENTIONED AT LEAST
@Hagel I AGREE
WE WASTE PEOPLE'S LIVES WITH EDUCATION
In 9 years you can be a master of something
you know
WHICH IS BASICALLY MAKE WORK
nine bloody years
MOST PEOPLE NEED EDUCATION THROUGH GRADE FIVE
AND THREE HOURS A DAY AT MOST
THERE IS ONLY SO MUCH THEY CAN ABSORB
BETTER TO HAVE IT LEARNED WELL THAN FLUFFED UP
BUT WE HAVE TEACHER'S UNIONS
