'To play' means 'to experiment' in this context. I agree, learning without curiosity, without will, without interest can't be done because humans aren't computers or papers in wich you can introduce or write data/info/knowledge. In the current system you can only be successful on the one hand, by a strong desire to please your other, on the other hand, despite the system. But it's never self-generated.

So true. Our educational system has it SO wrong! Memorizing information and then being forced to "prove" that you know it can be described as follows: - it's not a natural form of learning - it's quite ineffective - it just plain old sucks

@kimjongun7269 9 жыл бұрын

ckildegaard I agree wholeheartedly! Education should not be forced, it doesn't work. I know because I was one. I dropped out of high school and I can't remember anything what the hell I learned from there. Thanks to the existence of internet and along with a non-strict parent. I am now in college. A few years of me not being under "forced learning" allowed my curiosity to thrive which allowed me to pass on college. I am self taught, and no, I did not studied on the internet for the sake of going to college, I studied because I wanted to LEARN, not to get to college. But I gotta admit though, me wanting to learn mathematics wasn't developed, LOL, I still hate it.

Education should be a exciting journey for young people, but instead it's all about pressuring yourself to be better than everyone else but not yourself, students are overworked and stressed out as much as they teachers are by the end of the week, all of this chaos quickly destroys any kind of enthusiasm and passion that should be present in the enjoyment that is expected in the learning of all the subjects that are on the curriculum, personally i've never been so annoyed at the education system in my life.

So true, I remember my mum telling me about how the teens in a kibbutz didn't rebel. Also I know my my own experience as someone who went to school how awful it is. I found the school regime to be oppressive (arbitrary penalties issued by teachers, irrelevant rules, sitting still and being quiet for hours, etc.), and non-stimulating. I had to leave my school at age 16 because of my delinquency. This is strange given that in my spare time I study too many topics to list in this comment box.

I quite love this. I love to talk to middle schoolers, that's why I thought about being a counselor or teacher, and was a camp counselor/tutor while in college. They are the most interesting age group. I have always felt this was when children start to discover themselves as an individual instead of simply emulating those around them.

Yes, completely. I also had several opportunities to work with teenagers at summer camps and such, and they taught me quite a few things. If I can take them more seriously and myself less seriously, it´s always fun. Once I made up a game, something like "a scientific congress in a year 3400", and just gave them a box full of alluminium foil and colorful trifles and stuff, and they were enjoying it for HOURS. And the presentations were sooo witty and hillarious. Of course there were problematic ones as well. I remember having a 14-year old boy in my group who was intensely misbehaving, and I had several conversations with him, and I saw he had quite serious reasons to be unhappy, so I wanted to help him figure out how to express the dissatisfaction in acceptable ways. I was quite getting on to him, patiently... but alas, older caretakers just couldn´t resist to interfere with their authoritative bs and the boy completely sceased to trust anyone. I was too young then to handle the situation. That was do dissapointing.

This view of education is very similar to mine... In particular, I think that in schools youngster should have the possibility to create and express themselves continuously. In the contrary, what we observe (what I observe in Italy) is that children are taught about anything, without stimulating their critical skills and their creativity... Future of education should be much closer to the one of the video rather than the present one (at least for my country).

im in 10 grade here in germany. I HAD a lot of passion of learning new things and there working methods at the age of 8-14. I saw always documentation rather than cartoons. I was happy about my knowledge and had pretended to be very smart "I was" but this didn't last along time. As the time got on i realised that the knowledge which i was learning had no value in the actual life for me it is now "the School" which is important for your whole life.

I don't know what age you were taught in, Mr. or Ms. Capefeather, but I find that in all the schools I have been too, simply "regurgitating facts" is frowned upon. Teachers are receptive and as a good student I get many answers for questions that I ask. I feel that in the school environment I can learn without hindrance. The only problems I've had at school have been from other students. Honestly, when was the last time you were in a class room?

You can understand more people in general just by being right brain dominant. I don't really know what discipline is, but just by being dominant, you feel what's good for people and what's not. For people who are left brain dominants, they have to be taught that you cant do this and cant do this to people. Right brain dominants don't have to be taught because they live looking through emotions. They can decode other people's feelings.

I did go to college, I majored in psychology but I definitely wouldn't consider myself an expert on the subject. You are probably right that it's a western thing because teenagers are drawn to what is considered "cool" in society and it just happens that hedonism, rebelliousness, drugs, sex, partying, and destructive behavior is what's considered "cool" in western society but that's not what's cool in all cultures. I did take a couple anthropology classes, it was pretty interesting.

I'm 16, though legally I can leave school, I can't because the world is so built around education that there's nothing to do if I wasn't there. The education system in the UK is ridiculous. It doesn't encourage any creativity or enthusiasm, it is forced learning, and it all comes down to the scoreboards and qualifications. How is that learning? Rejecting the current system and being different is what people need in order for things to change.

When I hear your comment, I think of the mock quote, "Order must be maintained!" Adolescents need love, connection, guidance, caring, freedom and passionate interests, not "maintained structure". People who are "maintained" resent and rebel against it. Adults seem to lack any empathy for the fact that youth don't appreciate being dominated any more than adults!

Aboriginal children face a more more complex, if less complicated world than do Civilised children. Aboriginalchildren have to master a far wider range of skills to a much higher degree than the civilised, and learning is continious in the Aboriginal world because the stasis of any given habitat is a variable, and the ability to respond is key to all life - we call it 'adaptation' and it's not random, as many Empire Logic thinkers assume.

The original goal of public school is to ensure that the masses are taught things that would otherwise only be known by the super-rich elite. However, it is a product of the industrial age, modeled like a factory. In art/music, you get to be "creative". In math/science/literature, you don't get to be creative. Instead, you're "trained" to regurgitate mostly useless facts to get the grade because this course is required to graduate and make your parents slightly less disappointed in you.

@mattraum But that is nonsense - if you'd bothered to watch Zeitgeist Addendum one of the first things they advocate is a complete systematic monitoring of resources. This system would constantly track demand and needs, it would tell us how much we have and how much we can make, etc. Our price systems of today are just a very primitive way of doing the same thing with no real regard for how much resources we ACTUALLY have, because scarcity is encouraged to produce profit.
