RE: A lesson missed? Rethinking education.

in #education7 years ago

Part of the problem is people learn differently. Teachers who learn by listening are not allowed to teach repetitive lessons etc. I took a total of 5 pages of notes in college. I passed, except for physiology. Others took massive notes and after hours of review still did not understand. Schools watch children and try to keep them safe. Perhaps a little danger would allow them to learn how to learn. Gee, maybe Billy should have stayed out of the mud?

I can't comment on 5 pages of notes, I tried to take notes but found I am not great at that.

I agree that a little danger would help a lot, a skinned knee is a lesson in itself.
