The Wow I Can't Believe That News Story Thread

the easiest way to give the most amount of kids the greatest amount of options would be to take public school out of the picture entirely and just give away the top curriculums for free online

That’s not a bad idea at all. Obvious maybe but I didn’t think of it.

Online schooling? Without self-discipline or your parents treating you like a prisoner that sounds worthless.

Hey

It’s not like the kids who don’t want to are doing the work in school either.

[The Batlord]

Osmosis at least counts for SOMETHING. I'm not defending compulsory schooling but online schooling is pointless.

[Frownland]

With online schooling, the kids who want to learn wouldn't do their schoolwork either because that **** sucks.

[The Batlord]

And you wanna talk about teachers who don't give a **** NOW?

[OccultHawk]

Well now every kid has a laptop and they do google classroom and programs so like 80% of it now is online anyway - just at school

School’s just day care and everyone knows it

Somewhere in between maybe

I don’t know

I mean the brick and mortar community space is important

I just think school needs to be very radically redesigned

I think we could do better than what ant suggested but what he suggested is better than what we’re doing now which is actively harmful

Unfortunately I think the actual solution is ending the mentality that the village has no business raising the child. Some kind of socialist solution with in-depth community involvement that replaces teachers and principals so that two or maybe even just one person isn't the only one who gives a **** about any kid and people actually talk to each other like communities are supposed to so that issues between children aren't just a dark secret between hateful enemies.

So, you know, there isn't any solution for at least a thousand years.

I mean for real even radical socialism aside until parents are actually active in education, actually active, then it's like figuring out how to keep kids from seeing tits on TV without addressing parents who don't pay attention to what their kids watch.
