      I don't have that experience. Learning through online research and educational videos compliments learning at school, and learning at school compliments learning through online research and educational videos. Together, it forms a positive feedback loop: learning at school generates ideas I can learn about in-depth through research, and I use that information in school, which generates more ideas I can learm in-depth about, which I use in school, etc. etc.

Sure there are vast amounts of opportunities now, but how many people actual get them? Probably that same 20% that didn't work on farms 200 years ago. The majority of people now drive to their 9-5 job in a car they don't own, go home to a house they don't own, and get paid just enough to make it to the next pay check. Sure is a lot of opportunity there.
      And I wouldn't call having to give 20% of my income away, forced to pay auto insurance, forcing my kids to wake up too early to go to a disease filled, soul sucking, curiosity burning 'school', even if what they teach is against my beliefs (which btw is a major part of the reason this county even exists), being told what I can and can't put in my body, not being able to drive without a special card, and if I'm too poor to afford food, because all my money is going to everything I just listed and more, I can't even hunt or fish for my food without a special card that says I'm allowed to.

      As a teacher you also have to be worried about cognitive overload. Learning is sequential. If you didn't master the concepts you're building now, then if I taught you something on the next level at best it'll spark curiosity and at worst it'll break what you're currently building.
      Definitely teach for comprehension instead of teach for a test, but also don't tackle too much at once.

      And this Academic System🎓, I'm afraid, will not be an system that will work for all where they will find their own education, as its too standardised, gripped in its boundaries and expectations where students are told what to and to not do, in the same day, way and pathways with no choices that those who are stressed out are enought to commit suicide.

    The problem with curiosity inside the American system (driven entirely by the American economy, which is driven entirely by the large corporations) is that there's little incentive. Society pushes us into cubicles and keeps our earnings flat. Often, if we have a good idea, the boss takes credit for it themselves. People shut down because there's nothing in it for them. We try for many years to get ahead, but it never goes anywhere. You have to be young, smart, good looking, college educated, socially adept, unscrupulous, and lucky. And if all else fails, you've got to have a rich dad or uncle. If you aren't any of those things (and god forbid if you're not white) then you are screwed.

    My father has been a teacher for 25 years now. He’s in the art department of a high school so I’ve heard every complaint from him about things from budgets to standardized testing. The system has evolved specifically around a system of standard learning without giving students room to explore their own creativity or desires until they graduate and are told they have to pay $20,000 a year to learn how to be creative. Not all teachers are bad, or built by the current system. A lot of them see the flaws too

      Home schooled kids can't just learn what they want to learn, there's things in every subject they are required to learn. Home schooling unfortunately denies them the most important lessons school has to offer, interactions with other people, personal relationships, and overall social skills. Denying them of this will severely cripple their personalities, and cause more problems later in life than you can imagine. Please send them to school and allow them to train for the real world. Sending them to school doesn't mean you can't teach them anything they want to learn. And you'd be amazed at how teachers have really smartened up over the years, and realize half the shit we used to be taught is either incorrect, or just pointless. School has come a long, long way over the years. Give it a chance

Some people will never push themselves to learn or do better in life, yet we cram them into a large cinderblock building for 7 hours a day and waste time and resources better used on people that are actually grateful for an education. Even worse, the amount of forced standards and the cookie cutter track kids are forced onto just leaves highschool graduates with no real skills or expertise in a field of work. Imagine for a moment if people left highschool with the knowledge and training required to land a job with an easy $60,000-$80,000 salary, social mobility would be in full swing! But no, instead all the important stuff people need to learn is reserved for college where it costs more money for the student, meanwhile highschool continues to be a glorified daycare that provides only semi-important knowledge that everybody and their mother can learn from a library on their own time.

    Schools need a way to assess if the students are learning and if the teachers are doing their jobs. The solution is standardized tests. Then what happens is teachers get pressured to have good scores in their class, so there's little room to differentiate your teaching to what they're interested and curious about. And then the worst part of all happens, teachers start teaching for the test instead of teaching for comprehension. Learning is about comprehension, but test taking strategies is memorizing procedures. Memorizing procedures does not foster curiosity, rather it feels like a chore. Comprehending the world around you is what's going to lead to questioning it and life long curiosity.
    So there's the problem. Which genius here is going to solve it?

    What's worse is, the school system's malfuckery is more than a one-dimensional problem. Having a social life and an interest in learning are instrumental to the well-being of all humans, and schools make you think you're getting both when you're actually getting neither. They surround you with peers but tell you to shut up and do your work in a monotone classroom. You decide you want a good grade and that the discipline of shutting up and working is worth it, but the work you're forced to do is pointless. You get home and desperately crave free time to learn and socialize on your own, but you now have more pointless work to stress you out in the form of homework and no friends to hang out with because you decided to discipline yourself for work that wasn't socially involved. Oh, and then you get depressed from a lack of engaging work and friends, which hurts your performance even more.

    • @evanurena8868
      @evanurena8868 3 года назад

      I've been saying something similar regarding how people think school socializes children the best, which i'd say is usually not the case. Sometimes i've been confused as to how people even come to the conclusion that public schooling enhances socialization when most of the school day is spent sanctioning students to have a silent and sedentary lifestyle of compliance that stifles socialization. Interactions with other people are usually fixated on following approved responses that help develop a good reputation with academia but when people try to use clubs, sports, etc.., as a prime example, that example becomes counterintuitive when developing deeper connections with other people is usually associated outside of school, as extracurricular/co-curricular activities or other special events have a separated focus on what the core curriculum represents. Unless you are a complete extravert who made groups of friends or are lucky enough to have the ability to mingle or connect with people, you're going to find that public school is built on the antisocial premise of making kids obediently silent for the majority of their day so that way they all think as similar as possible in order to focus on a similar monotonous purpose, even if it goes against their own sanity of their best interests at heart. Personal relationships are usually achieved outside of school to avoid disruption and when there is a focus on developing social and emotional intelligence with others in school, it's usually predicated upon conditional processes of behaviorism rather then a conjunction of newfound individual curiosity and an empathy for humanity with interpersonal connections for community goals. If anything, it's possibly even more antisocial then what people think homeschooling entails because unless you have overcontrolling parents, you're loving and nurturing parents are not inculcating you against you're own volition to sit in a restricted room or area throughout most of you're day and you have the option to learn or connect with other people in the world around you, whether it would be you're neighborhood, library, store, etc..... No offense, but I find it hypocritical how people are automatically critical to the possible isolation of homeschooling yet never considered how isolating a public schooling experience can be as well?

We need metal workers, wood workers, we need truck drivers and farmers and sewage maintenance, etc. We live in a society that is filled with technology thought of by scientists and engineers, but who built those devices? Who transported them? Who made their white lab coats and white boards, transported the coffee beans for them, run and maintain the electrical grid for them to have light?
    I understand wanting school to be the place to rejuvenate our curiosity and give us great thinking skills, but ideally school should prepare us to run our modern societies (and yes it doesn't do that well either).

    My kid was flatly told “we lose $60 per every absent kid per day” so they are required to be actually at school 90% of scheduled days

    The school system is garbage and by the time you're a teen, you know that.
    9/10ths of the stuff they force you to learn above 6th grade, you'll never use again in your adult life. What they should be doing with that time is opening your mind to career choices and get you on the paths to general lifeskills and prerequisites to adult careers.

    • @mayainverse9429
      @mayainverse9429 6 лет назад

      lol well that is kind of what they do you literally just said it in your statement. "90% of the stuff you learn is stuff you will never use again" yea because they are giving a diverse set of knowledge so you can get an idea of what path to go down.
      it does not matter what you teach a class full of kids 90% of everything everyone learns is going to be useless you can only make everything useful if you have a class of 10 year olds who you know who are 100% going to become engineers.

      Mana Montana so maybe instead of doing it in a way that discourages kids from wanting to learn and being able to think critically and creatively they should have classes that actually teach us what career options we have and how those jobs really work. If you can’t get that connection into a kid they’ll just see it as a chore. I don’t care how many times my teacher says I can be a engineer or architect with math to me it’s just a chore requirement to leave after 4 years

    As much as I agree that the public school system needs changes, Tyson's view point and argument here is a very naive one. The fact is, we go to school to learn how to be productive citizens in the workforce, and most jobs in the workforce are not fun, exciting, or interesting. It's naive to expect everyone to have a curiosity about learning when the vast majority of jobs people need to go to school to fill are uninteresting ones like accounting, repair work, banking, Etc. It's unrealistic to expect most people to be enthusiastic about learning. A lot of subjects you need to learn in school are flat-out not fun or interesting. But they are necessary. It's easy to be enthusiastic about being an astrophysicist, but try being enthusiastic about being a bank teller. Or an accountant. Or a guy that repairs air conditioners. The fact is the huge majority of jobs in the labor market that need filling are ones that are boring, uninteresting and unfulfilling. It's ridiculous and unrealistic to expect people to be enthusiastic about being in school being educated to do that kind of work. Vast majority of people are forced to take the jobs that are available in the market and to work for money, not for personal passion. Tyson's argument is flawed because it fails to realize that most things we have to learn are not inherently interesting and exciting to most people.

      I think your a bit caught up on the idealistic way neil was talking axel nuance would tell you that neil more then likely knows that. That's why he put forth that people get caught up in what they know and are essentially discouraged from even considering new tasks. I witness this everyday at the place I work every given task ends with someone talking about whether or not they were taught this or whether its their job. Even though common sense would have it that if you were in that employers position people who can accomplish task that are new and different are more desirable.

      @@AxelAlexK don't miss the forest for the trees. His premise is that more people would be invested in learning if there are fun and creative ways to learn. There are obviously really tedious things to learn that are necessary but those boring things can be balanced out with fun things. I had accounting 2 at a community college for a summer and accounting is boring as crap, however my professor took time to make up games and songs to help us study and remember rather than lecture us for hours.

This direction, of a course, by the "Way," I believe in is a better way for Us manifest a greater purpose in this life, which, in turn, will show the Way through the passing on into the next level of Creation. Do not think of life as jobbing the majority of this existence as We try to make enough "Munkey". By chasing the money and material assets, our Minds STAY away from a Higher Calling. A cry from a baby is the baby saying, "I want!" Can You hear it in your head or are You and Everything that You are All About preventing your inner voice from WANTING NOW? YOU WANT. YOU WANT. YOU WANNNNNT, and cry like a little bitty baby. I cry like a baby at the times I do and I have, I can not lie. However, My cries that I've cried recently have been from My feelings, of shame, regrets, lost Love, loss of beloved and the thought of My children and our unborn yet to come.

    To know ALL is ALL in ITSELF. How to do "x" and not do "x" simultaneously? That is the Question. How to be in two places at once, like right now as I am typing WORD of God, God is Somewhere else BECAUSE God is not Visible to Me yet I have Gods WORD, doing exactly what I am Suppose to do, by the numbers.
    It is challenging for Me to know I am right and the realization of the facts when reflected back on reveal that I am just a puppet on a STRING, but, to be THAT string, now that would be ANYTHING A GOD CREATED.HMMMM.. and ALL OF (IT), (pause. sorry that I lost my focus.
