That's also partly why I mentioned the human condition earlier.
I think we best operate in smaller ad more woven communities
I'd like to think that, at least that's what empirical evidence tells me
.
Is it true than, that any such thing cannot exist only if it has the same self governing right locally?
(like the government enjoys now)
honestly i think it could become a massive problem if its locally. i think state would be better
@ETBrooD
I'm glad you popped in you've had some good ideas the last time we spoke about this
I think nothing will change, schools will remain shit
I think state and local can work together yeah
I consider the education system hopeless. What must happen is that people spread information outside of the system, thus making it irrelevant.
Education must become as cheaply and easily available as sugar
Education is the cost of an internet connection
No not really unfortunately
i dont think you got what i'm saying
If that was the case maybe the situation would be better, but there's a lot of information that's behind massive paywalls for the public, but "freely" accessible to students and scholars
Even though it's not free, they get subsidized
yeah thats true. but you can get info that's not on pay walls
Yeah but none of the good stuff, because they want to maintain their monopoly on knowledge
i think it's just better education methods rather than knowledge
What makes their education methods good in any way? Most students have an extremely low retention rate into their adult years.
That statement should be "if you dont practice you forget"
It's not that simple. Teachers are trained in very poor quality education methods, like lecturing.
Yet they get paid ungodly amounts for that low quality effort.
And that by tax money, not by private donors or consumers.
Yeah i don't disagree with you there. You'll be called a racist for saying that xD
Yeah I guess in the US that'd be the case, fortunately I'm Austrian.
even private schools.. they they aint private. Anything that gets goverment funding directly isn't private
Yeah
There are even worse cases of private schools for migrant children where they don't even have to teach the national curriculum while receiving subsidization, it's messed up.
My dad used to teach at one of those.
There's really only one solution, people must create a database of general knowledge and recent scientific papers.
Like wiki, but for profit, and without any state subsidization.
They must also create a student-teacher network around that platform.
there should be multiple of them to force competition
Exactly.
The problem is, however, that public schools drive the prices of those private organizations up.
So I don't know what the solution is tbh.
it's like that in every thing tho. even in health care. food
everything that the goverment touches. kinda weird. I've spoke about this with the both of you before and you both disagreed with me. Don't know why you changed your mind
Maybe you're mistaking me for someone else? I've been against public education for years.
