Curious to hear people’s ideas on how education would look in such a world.
For me, I’d like to see it moved away from testing and results based learning.
A stronger focus on physical engagement with things, e.g. learning biology by going out and cataloging wildlife and learning what’s in a local ecosystem before coming together and researching findings and looking for new questions to ask.
Less sitting around at desks being fed information and a greater focus on individual agency in exploring topics of interest.
Not to say there isn’t a time and a place for “high level” stuff where you need to deep dive into books and listen to lectures, but there needs to be a greater balance in methodology.
I agree with you that it should move away from rote memorization and standardized testing, that method seems to just absolutely stamp out any curiosity that kids naturally have, which will lead them to having a much less fulfilling life.
As an example of how it could be improved, I like how this teacher is doing things, which looks like it’s a solid step in the right direction, at least within the limits on what they can reasonably do in our current system.
