Why Our Education System is Failing Us
Why Our Education System is Failing Us « Personal Growth & Personal Development
Today’s school system is built upon a foundation that was created over 100 years ago. Unfortunately, it has changed very little since being formed during the Industrial Age.
We still hold millions of kids hostage for approximately 35 hours a week. Students are ushered from room to room by the sound of an annoying bell and worst of all, students and teachers are working around an outdated system that was designed to produce industrial workers.
Takes an interesting, and for me, new viewpoint on the problems schools are facing. Mentions some things I remember from my own childhood. My aunt is homeschooling all 4 of her children because even the “gifted” programs at the schools in her area aren’t adequate for them.
