Thoughts on education before the video:
Public schools are there to make people smarter so that they accomplish more in life. In the olden days people who didn't go to school stayed at home or worked in the field they couldn't do a lot of the normal activities that are present today because they didn't know how to read or even write their name.
Thoughts on education after the video:
We all work separately and they grade us all separately when in the future we rely on collaboration of a group. We get grades in the form of a letter but what are we really going to be able to solve with a letter? We want to have the straight A’s however we might not even understand the things that we are learning and we just fake it so that we can get A’s. Colleges and jobs look at a persons grades and they judge them based on a letter. As well, public schools are like factories because we are all separated by grade based on our age and the intelligence we should have, so that is like our model number. Schools only allow a person to move ahead sometimes because of their abilities. Along side of this, kids with ADHD are taking lots of pills that just make them get through school not actually learn. In our society there are so many distractions that kids would much rather be focusing on then a person talking in the front of the room.
