Nov 14, 2009 - But children need guidance in distinguishing good references from trash on the internet...and what about trying to get resources which aren't available online?

lfonde Says:

Nov 26, 2009 - So you thing the education's goal is only to prepare children to work in the design dpt instead of the shop floor? I think it is much more than that... Poor video, poor ideas.

Dec 10, 2009 - public school only teaches us to be on time, dont ask any questions, obey authority, take orders. we should have a different way of teaching.

Jan 24, 2010 - Ya there is really no use for much of the stuff I've learned in school. Now a days you can just do simple math on your cell phone. School is really a place just to keep you busy with 6 hour long brain teaser.

Feb 1, 2010 - public education is corrupt, government teachings for the benefit of dumbdowned society, indoctrines, i never cared for learning in school, hated school, textbooks, books n more books.. all bullshit.. no truth/knowledge was ever taught.. i have learnt more in my life by educating myself , using the power source internet.. i seek truth gain knowledge like never before. "it is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth" -morpheus, matrix

Feb 1, 2010 - i remember when i was in high school, young, dumb, n also brainwashed, indoctrinated, my teacher ask me, whats the meaning of life , what is life??i said "money" lol.. she was flabbergasted, shellshocked, in disbelief, from what i can recall, she said fuk no, wait til you grow older and you will learn and understand the true meaning.. i also understand now, why she taught us history of holocaust, showed us videos, movies..

Feb 9, 2010 - Modern Education, especially since the 1950s, is deliberately the worst and most barbaric in recent history and exists only as a form of Indoctrination, and to cultivate young burgeoning Debt Slaves who will manufacture debt to feed this purely speculative Post-Industrial real estate Bubble Economy.

AnonymousWhitePerson Says:

Feb 9, 2010 - Modern Education and Culture are the barbaric bread and circuses of a modern synthetic Roman Pleasure Society. A sped-up version of the decline of Imperial Rome in 50 years.

AnonymousWhitePerson Says:

Feb 9, 2010 - So, in summary, modern "education" is barbaric puerile filth.

Mar 7, 2010 - as an educator i see that education has succeed beyond the wildest dreams of its masterminds, a lobotomy for the working class, it's just a job, if you think that teachers are gonna rise up and free your kids mind, you are a fool, they come from the same system themselves, they are employees of the state, and the state will never free your kid's mind, it needs drones to run the photocopiers and to work retail on friday nights at the mall, neo, the matrix has you, follow the white rabbit...

666fruitfly Says:

Mar 7, 2010 - s-u-c-c-e-e-d-e-d, a population raised on TV and "who wants to marry a millionaire" is not prepared to think seriously about what to do in order to fix this crisis in education, that's how far the quality of discourse has dropped, 1. do not let the state control your kid's education, like medicine that's between you and your kid's teacher, 2. our democracy is at risk because we don't learn it at school: when did YOU ever get to vote on your teacher? or the school budget? 3. it;s obsolete.

ArminMeiwes23 Says:

Mar 12, 2010 - LOL!!!! how many schools or colleges have a pc for every student? .That school is not free that's for sure. Education today it's... just average, but not good unless you got money as allways happend with everything.
