    Fifty years ago my dad told me that if I wanted to learn I should go buy the books and study them! He said anyone that’s worthy will learn the material and be much better for it! However I told him no corporation will hire someone claiming they are an engineer if they don’t have a degree. My dad was a self-made engineer and was renowned as one. I am retired now but I was a Senior Advanced Engineer for a major corporation. I’m am glad Elon is of the same mindset as my dad!!!

      Yeah me too, School is too much of a structure for me, and even the standards of the education for our country is quite low that I'd be better off learning with the best equalizer of all. The internet. I also need to point out the fact that school does not teach creativity, which is a valuable trait that every innovative inventor should have. People in school who are in the autistic spectrum will inevitable suffer in school because it does not fit their way of learning and just as I said in the beginning school is too much of a structure for them, but don't get me wrong some people need help in managing themselves and once can confidently do it on their own then they can venture into the real world.

    A. "A pupil gets taught everything in details with no curriculum choices. A student gets taught a lot but has to do some foraging and they have some curriculum choices. A scholar gets taught nothing, they have to do all their own foraging, and they make their own curriculum."

It took me about two months before he was able to give me actual work to do. Fast forward a little over 20 years, and I now produce Architectural and Structural Engineering drawings both privately and Freelanced to one of our leading Engineering firms. Funny enough, other than English and Basic Math, I have had no need for any of the other subjects I was taught in school.

    I see this happening in my sons' schools. They are taught math concepts which appear useless and study history that seems also useless. But I agree with Musk that students are not taught "why" they are learning something. When my kids get frustrated now, I explain to them what the purpose of the assignment/task is, what the curriculum is trying to teach, to provide some context. Hopefully, this makes the learning more relevant and motivates them to continue working with the material. Education needs to be reformed to explain why, not just the what of learning.

    And chemistry - when I finally figured out how to get rid of the stain on my clothes, or when I start aging and want to buy something really useful for my wrinkles.
    I'm taking time re-learning them because I finally see how useful they could be.

    The whole education system should be structured to do things that we need to live our lives- grow food, car mechanics, carpentry, budgeting, social skills- like practical things and each grade level increases the difficulty skill. After that anyone would have all the practical intelligence to learn and figure things out on their own in whatever field they want. That would be a beautiful world

I’m realising that I’m still young and have time to learn and qualify for whatever I want to, and it might be better to use my A level qualifications as tools for later on rather than a gateway to uni.

    I totally agree with his statement that the most useful part of higher education being the first two years. Looking back at my time spent pursuing a bachelors degree seemed to be demonstrating the law of diminishing returns at years 3 and more so at year 4. Many times I thought to myself that I should’ve dropped out at year 3 because the opportunity cost became too much by finishing.

I wouldn't be able to act upon given situation in a proper way if it wasn't for that college. I wouldn't be able to think 10 steps ahead with the background of the degree that I have.

    Reformation of school's education is at an all time necessity. Too much fruitless information is being obtained through social media & schooling.

Memories just gone when people spoke of times if there were no photos then I'd not even know what had occured and it was sad because as others were happy about the memory I couldn't share it. So what I'm getting to is I went on a journey to learn and since I had a clean slate I taught my self to only store what is needed and honestly it works. Just takes consciousness because majority have lost it and are on auto pilot. Breathing and slowing heart rate helps by aging slower along with bringing peace within.

    I believe that the most important thing is to develop curiosity in all directions. The current purpose of education does just the opposite. It groups the similar and directs them in one direction... It's sad, few people actually remain curious after formal education... That curiosity or as they call it the "inner child" must be preserved.... My respect to whoever finds it a model by which it would be feasible.

    ❤️ 💙 💜 Been a public school teacher for 25 years. I loved interacting and teaching my 5 to 9 year old students through hands on learning (acting, playing, arts, drawing, origami, painting). But teachers are not allowed to use other curriculums besides the stated adopted ones. They are strict to teaching and finishing in the alloted time scheduled so students can take their end of the year state tests. All in the name of comparison to see how badly children learn. America public education is so dogmatic. In order to resolve this issue, the whole society has to come together and eliminate government and political management/control of education. I am awake to how bad and controlling America public education is now. Most education would cut art, music, sports or anything getting students to be creative due to budget. And I finally resign/quit because too much stress/anxiety to continue to be a caring teacher with the dogmatic rules and regulations that are not relevant to effectively to teach kids and for kids to learn in a fun way.

    Excellent take on better ways to learn! Companies and colleges should consider the key takeaways:

    - Teach to the problem, not to the tools. Pick the problem first.
    - Allow learners to progress at their own pace
    - Gamify learning, make it fun!
    - Employees who didn't go to college can still grow in their careers
