his cover in one chapter what new ones take half a book to get through.
@Catboi it's called Critical Theory from the Frankfurt School.
Yeah new books assume everyone is stupid.
Marxists been playing the long game
We have dumbed down the education system, homework is useless, the educational standards and textbook racket do nothing but siphon money away from taxpayers and parents...
I can't say for how things are these days but I always found school frustratingly slow
It's like the MIC the EIC?
That's because it is if you're even slightly above average
I can teach math, science, and English, but I'd have to either find a tutor or seriously brush up on history.
That's one thing I was glab about going to private schools
had to take IQ tests to get in
^
I went to a country high school with the focus there being Agriculture
Everyone there was smarter. A lof of the complaints my fiends had about Public school didn't happen atm y school
There were no really dumb kids at my school.
When everyone got it, the teacher just moved on.
Homework is still retarded
and we still had to use the state prescribed curriculum to some degree which was dumb.
We had magnet program. I was just hick townie
All my best classes the teachers made their own text books
That's a mixed bag
All the problems are even worse with pacing online since they're still putting kids in "classes" AFAIK
Depends on the program I think but yeah, they carry over a lot of legacy assumptions
The ones that are free and run by my state are like that.
otherwise it's a homeschool program and the parents have to pay usually.
You get what you pay for.
Schools would vastly improve if they just placed kids based on some sort of testing.
Yep
Vocational tracks
not even talking about that.
Just talking about not having some person in the class that's so far behind and so much less capable the teacher slows everything down for that person.
It's the natural outcome of a tiered schooling system.
IMO we should be letting kids specialize their curriculum based on their interests and abilities as soon as middle school.
and I don't know how I feel about a Realschule, Hauptschule and Gymnasium type system...
In some ways how we have things now gives more people potential to change and get back in school if they want to.
Our system still offers more opportunity for people, and I'd like to keep that aspect of it.
I don't like the hard separation line between school and adult life, personally.
"hard separation" Don't know what you mean.
You go to school, a building for children, until you graduate and are considered an adult.
I would much rather have teenagers trying out apprenticeships and different vocational learning opportunities instead of just being in a classroom until 18.
