Misconception #1: Education is synonymous with schooling
Some people differentiate between schooling and education. I prefer to use the term to refer to use the term to refer to mental development, which is contrary to schools that refer to themselves as education.Misconception #2: Teachers struggle to teach because kids don’t want to learn
We are all born with a natural desire to learn, which can be seen in how we learn to walk and talk. The reason it appears that kids don't want to learn is because we force them to view learning as a chore. This is further complicated by teachers thinking that not wanting to do schoolwork is the same as not wanting to learn.Misconception #3: There are some good teachers out there
If someone truly cares about education, they will not enter the teaching profession. Just to enter the profession, they must prove their loyalty to the anti-educational status quo of our schooling system. By contrast, anyone who truly believes in education will have no problems seeing the anti-educational values embedded in the foundation of our schools. They will not agree to perform anti-educational job duties required of the profession.Misconception #4: Teachers don't get respect
Yes, there are people like me, but we are clearly the minority. Many businesses offer teachers special discounts, politicians have used ties to teachers as a shortcut to respect, and who hasn't heard of teacher appreciation week? Teachers are frequently given credit for the work of others, sometime leading to the absurd claim that teaching is the most important profession.Misconception #5: The schools are being held responsible for the failures of parents
Since parents have more schooling than ever before, they are lousy scapegoats for the failings of our schools. Teachers have seized control of children from these parents, and there are many tasks parents now fear. For example, teachers will tear apart any parent who puts training their children to be decent humans over living their lives for schoolwork. Instead of criticizing parents who no longer have any rights over these children, we need to acknowledge the abundant shortcomings of our schooling system.Misconception #6: Schooling is for intellectuals
To maximize the number of students who can succeed in the environment, schools aim very low. Mentally advanced students will struggle to suppress enough to succeed in that environment. This could explain why a lot of graduates are mentally deficient while some people who are mentally strong don't fit this singular model.Misconception #7: The schools need to keep lessons simple enough for all of their students to understand
Not all students have the same needs. Teachers' attempts to keep things simple enough for everyone means that they must aim beneath even below-average students. 100% of all students are exposed to a single approach that meets 0% of the students’ individual needs. Instead, schools need to do a better job of meeting students where they are at and adjusting for individual needs.Misconception #8: The graduation rates are too low
What's the ideal graduation rate? Considering there are numerous individuals who do not learn well in a schooling environment, it's clearly not 100%. Unfortunately, we seem to view anything less than 100% as a crisis. The real dropout crisis is that we don't have nearly enough people dropping out to pursue the educations that are right for them.Misconception #9: We need to eliminate the achievement gap
How do you close the achievement gap? There is no simple solution. Most ideas require hindering the more advanced students. Ideally, students don't have unfair advantages over others, but it's not the end of the world if a gap persists. Our solutions are so much worse.Misconception #10: We need to emphasize the most important subjects
An argument can certainly be made that some subjects are more important than others, but what are these subjects and how important are they? This actually varies from student to student. We should also support rather than destroy the natural desire to learn. Give students the freedom to learn what works for them rather than cramming literacy down their throats, and you will see that they actually want to learn how to read.Misconception #11: Teachers are experts in educating their students
Nobody takes education for granted more than the teaching profession. If they cared, they wouldn't enter the profession. People with a practical understanding of education are prohibited from entering the profession because they don't invest time, money, and effort into the anti-educational status quo. More importantly, learners should be the biggest expert in their own unique needs.Misconception #12: Businesses are reliant on the skills learned in school
Businesses adapt to what the schools produce far more than schools adapt to businesses. This includes easily interchangeable and obedient workers. Actual skills such as the ability to think are being hindered by schools, which is likely why our rate of progress has plummeted.Misconception #13: Free or affordable college will help reduce the gap between the rich and poor
Subsidized college (which is actually quite expensive) would strengthen credentialism and lead to credential inflation like what we have seen in the K-12 schooling model. Many jobs currently requiring college degrees will start requiring advanced degrees. This would put more desirable opportunities further out of the reach of the people we claim to be helping, and rich families would be in a better position to buy success. Instead of this approach, we need to improve opportunities for people who learn outside of a restrictive and expensive schooling environment.Misconception #14: Athletes are better paid than teachers
The average pay of the highest paid athletes is paid better than the average teacher, but that's not how this argument is worded. The average of all professional athletes has typically been less than the average teacher. If teachers embraced the model used by professional sports, which involves people competing for a small number of jobs, they would make substantially more than athletes. They would never go for this.Misconception #15: Money will magically fix everything
Throwing money at our flawed model has always been the solution for our educational crisis. This approach has failed every single time. Money was never the problem. In fact, increasing funds as a result for poor performance provides a disincentive to fix our problems. We need to stop trying to strengthen our educational crisis and start looking for a way to actually address the crisis. This will require developing an entirely new educational model.Misconception #16: Getting rid of the paddle was a mistaken
We didn't get rid of the paddle. Instead, we switched from a literal paddle to a metaphorical paddle. Emotional abuse has become the primary motivational tool used by teachers, and it has been a disaster. Regardless of the nature of the abuse, the purpose is problematic. We are abusing children to force them to give up their childhoods entirely to their teachers or else live every minute of every day of their miserable lives as failures who can’t afford the necessities of life. This is not honorable. Instead of focusing on which form of abuse we should use, we need to end the abuse.Misconception #17: School years are carefree
In school, unlike jobs, you really aren’t given the opportunity to quit, and if you can’t handle your teacher’s way of doing things, you don’t have any choices. The schools pressure you to do all sorts of impractical busywork under the threat of destroying your entire future. This is not carefree.Misconception #18: Stress in school is beneficial
Some people feel that children should be stressed to help them learn how to deal with stress. There is a huge difference between stress for the sake of stress and learning how to handle stress. Unnecessary harm of mental health should never be praised.Misconception #19: Schooling is effective at reducing crime rates
It's difficult to isolate various influences on crime rates. People like to cite the difference in crime rates among different schooling levels, but correlation does not establish cause. There are actually a lot of ways in which we can push dropouts into criminal behavior. In fact, a lot of defenders of the schools have resorted to insisting that staying in school may not keep people from becoming criminals, but dropping out pretty much guarantees it. How does that make sense unless the schools are increasing crime rates?Misconception #20: Children learn through sight and sound
The idea that children learn through sight and sound is based on imperfect observations about memorization rather than practical learning. When it comes to practical learning, learning is highly variable. Taking an item from a list of two is insufficient to describe the unique learning styles of each student. We need to stop using these corny shortcuts to actually getting to know what students need.Misconception #21: With the decline of intelligence, we need to push schooling more than ever before
Yes, people are defending schools by insisting that the most heavily schooled era in the history of humanity lacks intelligence. If the schools are such a good solution, how come we haven't already seen results? There are reasons to believe that the schools were legitimately designed to dumb down society. Even if you don't believe me, it's clear that even more schooling won't fix the problem.Misconception #22: Funding the schools benefits everyone
Should we be forced to subsidize other people’s children? We need to take a look at the impact that the schools have on society and how the schools spend money before they insist that it benefits everyone. If the schools did what they claimed, subsidizing children would make sense. Instead, we are throwing a fortune into a system that doesn't even benefit the students.Misconception #23: We don't support the schools because we have a tendency to take education for granted
If you assume schools need support for no other reason than they claim to be education, you are guilty of taking education for granted. If you care, you are far more likely to identify the abundant and enormous flaws in the system, greatly decreasing your odds of supporting the system. Simply put, people who take education for granted are far more supportive of the schools than people who care.Misconception #24: If kids want to learn, they will do well in school
There's a difference between wanting to learn and wanting to get good grades. Kids who want to learn will find that schoolwork gets in the way of learning. What teachers really want is for students to do whatever they are told.Misconception #25: College graduates should be entitled to higher pay
Pay should be based primarily on the value of the work. Degrees don't measure the value of work. They measure the investment in time, money, and effort made to buy opportunity. This form of discrimination means that you could be the world’s greatest at a task, and have your employer insist that they can’t pay you as much as a potentially incompetent college graduate.Misconception #26: If you can read this, thank your teachers
Some people clearly learn to read outside of the schools. Even if the schools didn't exist, an overwhelming majority of the population would be literate. This is an outright defiance of common sense that would only be valid if you could establish that 0% of the population would be literate without the teaching profession. This also completely undermines the role of the learner in the educational process. If you can read this, there's only one person I can reliably thank, and that's you.Misconception #27: Teaching is the profession that makes all other professions possible
What's really annoying about this argument is that teachers aren't even arguing that schools are beneficial to certain professions. They are claiming all professions would be impossible. Many of these professions predate teaching, so they can clearly exist. If we didn't have schools today, it would be possible to contribute to society. Professions would clearly be possible without teachers.Misconception #28: You can’t learn outside of school.
The nature of schooling only allows teachers to pass along what is already known. How did the information become available to the schools in the first place? Everything learned in school must be possible to learn elsewhere.Misconception #29: Babysitters are paid better than teachers
Some teachers like to use a convoluted comparison of their per hour per child wages versus babysitters. If we pay babysitters more than teachers, then why don't teachers leave the profession to become babysitters? The money isn't there. This absurd argument completely overlooks such things as watching smaller groups, working shorter hours, and the lack of benefits.Misconception #30: We need to push kids to meet high standards
Children are highly variable and should not be pursuing the same standards. Pushing for high standards would ensure that students aim for predetermined goals that were not customized for individuals. Rather than pursuing personal interests or strengths, students are chasing after conformity.Misconception #31: To stay in power, dictators tear down schools
Overwhelmingly, dictators embrace the power to control and restrict education. Also keep in mind that schools legitimately train citizens to show obedience to authoritarian figures. This is something that dictators love. To date, I have yet to find a single example of a dictator tearing down schools.Misconception #32: Grammatical errors from the anti-schooling crowd proves the value of schooling
Nobody is perfect. Much like the pro-schooling crowd, critics of the schools periodically make spelling and grammatical errors. These mistakes are used to debunk arguments against the schools. Mistakes in how something is said is insufficient to disprove what was said. In fact, most of these arguments are made to change the topic when someone can't counter a point that was made.Misconception #33: All graduates need to prove that they meet graduation requirements
Children are highly variable and should not be pursuing the same standards. Graduation requirements require all students to pursue predetermined goals that were not customized for individuals. If schools want to graduate a reasonable percentage of their students, they must aim low. Graduation requirements require students to learn well below their potential.Misconception #34: Schooling is vital to the future
We have been making this argument for decades, but past teachers don't seem to want credit for the present. Can you blame them? The most heavily schooled era in the history of humanity is also the most mindless. We have become regressive. I value the ability to move forward far more than the ability to obtain a piece of paper.Misconception #35: Students should not have an option to evaluate their teachers
Teacher evaluations have a lot of problems, and we shouldn't take them too seriously. That doesn't mean that we should eliminate one of the very few options for students to have a voice in their own educations.Misconception #36: Grades reflect intelligence
When I was in school, I observed an inverse relationship between my mental ability and my grades. As it turns out, grades primarily reflect obedience and conformity. It's far easier to do well in school if you think what your teachers want you to think rather than think for yourself.Misconception #37: Schools are innovating to meet the needs of their students
We tend to put schools under a microscope, making insignificant changes look big. In reality, the schools haven't changed in any meaningful way in well over a century. The few changes that they have made are miniscule changes on the surface just to say they are innovating. It's never about actually meeting the needs of students. At this point, we need real innovation.Misconception #38: Some children have special needs
All children are unique. All children have special needs. Schools are putting a negative connotation on something that is true of everyone, potentially pushing children to suppress what makes them unique. We need to change how this term is used.Misconception #39: Boredom in school is caused primarily by Attention Deficit Disordern
Prior to school, children have little constraint on their thought processes. This changes in school. The primary cause of boredom isn't a disability. It's the struggle with the level of mental inactivity demanded by the schools. Teachers are trying to blame students for boring them. Instead of chemically altering children, we need to become more tolerant of mental activity.Misconception #40: The teachers job is to teach, not raise children
Parents are handing their children over to the government to raise their children. The primary job of teachers is to raise children. Their job was never to teach. What they call teaching is actually forcing a strict curriculum filled with propaganda to mold minds.Misconception #41: Schools encourage children to do the right things
Schools promote mindlessness, greed, corruption, and selfishness. They cause mental health issues that can cause children to act in a manner that clearly does not qualify as the right things. The schools should encourage children to do the right things, but that's not what they're doing.Misconception #42: The reform groups out there can fix our problems
Reform groups are pushing insignificant and ineffective ways to salvage a schooling model that is impossible to turn into something useful to society. For example, standards-based reform tries to strengthen the flawed idea that all children should be pursuing the same educations. Instead of reforming the system, we need to completely replace it with something that will actually work.Misconception #43: Schools are underfunded
We keep setting records for inflation-adjusted per-student spending. By no stretch if the imagine are these money pits underfunded. Money is not the problem, and we need to stop throwing money at a disaster.Misconception #44: You personally benefitted from schooling
If you went to school and are doing well, that doesn't mean that you are doing well because of the schools. Thanks to abundant propaganda, most people simply assume that they benefitted. Realistically speaking, you should have been able to exceed your education if you took full charge of your own education.Misconception #45: Businesses need products of the schools
There is nothing that can be learned in school that can't be learned elsewhere. Businesses that require any form of schooling are guilty of discrimination. Schools might make hiring decisions easier for businesses, but businesses don't actually need employees who are products of the schools. I would like to see more employers looking for quality workers rather than pieces of paper.Misconception #46: Students need to respect their teachers
Respect is something to earn, not something to demand. I refuse to embrace the idea that students must respect a profession that is so disrespectful to them.Misconception #47: Everyone with a degree is better than everyone else
There are good people who don't fit our single rigid schooling system. There are horrible people out there with PhD's. Degrees do not provide any evidence of superiority over those without degrees.Misconception #48: There's a school that's right for you
Not everybody learns well in an environment that tightly restricts what, where, when, and how they are allowed to learn. This is why some people learn best outside of schools. In these cases, there is no right school.Misconception #49: Those who claim teachers are lazy have never observed the profession
You could argue that a lot of critics haven't observed the behind-the-scenes elements of the profession, but it's an outright lie to insist that they haven't observed the profession at all. Most criticisms aimed at such things as laziness are actually based on observations people make of the profession.Misconception #50: Schools are vital to mental development
Mental development existed prior to the schools. Even with the schools, most mental development comes elsewhere. There are plenty of signs that indicate that schools are actually detrimental to mental development.Misconception #51: Teachers are faultless
There are many disputes in which people assume teachers are right simply because they are teachers. Bad news. Teachers are frequently wrong. I have personally seen plenty of examples of teachers being wrong when people assumed they were right, but I'm not going to list them here.Misconception #52: Teachers care about education
Nobody takes education for granted more than the teaching profession. They don't actually care about education. They care about appearing to care about education.Misconception #53: Schooling is a need
I agree when people insist that education is a need. The issue here is that I differentiate between schooling and education, and most people making this argument do not. While education is a need, schooling is not.Misconception #54: Teaching is a noble profession
Teachers are doing more harm than good to society. Destroying minds, emotionally abusing children, and punishing individuality are not noble acts. A lot of people assume that teaching is noble, but appearing noble is not the same thing as being noble.Misconception #55: The key to being a good teacher is to make learning fun
Failing in an entertaining way is still failing. You also have to wonder about the performance of teachers if their students can't come up with their own reasons to like them. They are not actually making learning fun. They are making their low-value schoolwork a little less boring. To be a good teacher, they would have to deviate from conventional schooling. This means that good teachers wouldn't be able to keep a job within these schools.Misconception #56: The best parents push their kids to do well in school
When people talk about modern parents, they frequently criticize their parenting. Parents aren't doing enough to make sure their children do their schoolwork. Schooling should not be the entirety of childhood. The lack of concern for such things at developing strong morals and ethics is disturbing. Raising children to be good people should be valued more than raising children to be good students.Misconception #57: Children who fail need to repeat classes
There are multiple reasons children fail in school. Among them is struggles with excessive repetition. In these cases, repeating a class will not help the student. If we did an adequate job of meeting the unique needs of individual students, no student would benefit from repeating a full year as a consequence of falling a little behind.Misconception #58: More prestigious colleges appeal to intellectuals
Intelligence is impossible to measure in an accurate and objective manner. Prestigious colleges can make someone look good, but it's not a valid measure. Intelligence should be valued more than schooling history. Prestige is not a valid replacement.Misconception #59: The reason some students don't keep up with the pace is because they are slow learners
Schools intentionally aim low. To maximize the number of students graduating, the target pace is usually below even the slowest students. If a student seems to be struggling with pace, it's a safe assumption that there's something else going on.Misconception #60: Progress in society proves the schools work
We progressed as a society before schools even existed. Since we started a hard push for schooling, our rate of progress has actually declined. The idea that the schools didn't completely eliminate progress does not prove their value.Misconception #61: School funding can be justified by future savings
There is no evidence that schools reduce crime rates. There is also no evidence that schools benefit the economy. Graduates tend to do better in a discriminatory society, but shifting who does well is insufficient to establish societal benefits. This includes ways that people claim that investing in schools provide savings for taxpayers.Misconception #62: Schools have significantly progressed over the years
Schools have not changed in any meaningful way in over a century. We frequently get this wrong because we put the schools under a microscope, making insignificant changes look far bigger than they really are. There are also mechanisms in place designed to protect the status quo.Misconception #63: Teachers deserve to be among the world's most respected professions
Respect is something to earn, not something to demand. Teachers are doing more harm than good to society when you look at such things as the destruction of individuality, the harm they are causing mental health, and the drastically reduced rate of progress they have created. This is among the world's least respectful professions, and they don't deserve to be among the world's most respected.Misconception #64: The schools are failing
Schools were primarily built to help the government control the public. They were designed to destroy thought and individuality while promoting obedience to the government. In this regard, they are actually quite successful. The reason so many people think the schools are failing is because they don't understand the purpose of schooling.Misconception #65: The schools are responsible for everything that you learn
Even with the existence of schools, most practical learning occurs elsewhere. Even within the schooling environment, the schools can't learn on your behalf. Schools need to start acknowledging the role of the learner in the educational process.Misconception #66: The schools should deny freedom to make people appreciate it more
Some people feel that children can develop appreciation of freedom thanks to the schools taking it away. Rather than appreciating freedom, this trains people to be satisfied with what little freedom still exists. This can actually lead to an increased tolerance of oppression.Misconception #67: Skilled and unskilled work should be defined by their schooling requirements
All jobs require at least some skill. Skills shouldn't only count as skill if they are obtained in a schooling environment. There are also people with extensive schooling (including college) with seriously limited skillsets.Misconception #68: Teachers firmly believe in standing up to bullies
Teachers usually like to tell students not to confront bullies. Instead, they tell students to tell a "trusted adult." Teachers are the biggest bullies at most schools, and they have an obvious reason to convince students not to stand up to them.Misconception #69: If teachers aren't worshiped by the media, then the media wants them to look bad
The media is clearly on the side of the teaching profession. There have been a few occasions in which they shared an alternate perspective. This is rare but frequently called out as proof of bias against them.Misconception #70: Striking and similar actions are always "for the children"
Demanding more money for yourself is not "for the children." What's truly best for the children is not the same as what's best for teachers. In fact, these are frequently contradictory concepts. Investing in harming children is certainly not "for the children."Misconception #71: Teachers are better than you because they're teachers
Teachers are in love with themselves, and they don't hesitate to boast about their profession as proof of their value to society. I have heard teachers insist that teaching is the most important profession. In reality, they are doing serious harm to society.Misconception #72: Teachers are only in it for the money
Despite what teachers say, money is definitely a factor in their jobs. Some people have inaccurately assumed that this is consistently the most important thing for teachers. The primary reason most teachers enter the profession is because they want to feel important, although their sense of their own importance is clearly overestimated.Misconception #73: Increasing credentials increases opportunity
Credentials can shift who has opportunity, but I have not seen any evidence that new opportunities are created by schools. In a credentialist society, we are slamming doors shut on those without credentials with the promise that we will reopen some if they gain credentials. Overall, credentialism is closing more doors than they are opening.Misconception #74: Teachers don't care about money
Teachers are paid far more than most people realize. Usually, when teachers are insisting that they don't care about money, it's when they are asking for more. It's hard to believe them under those circumstances.Misconception #75: Teacher evaluations are valuable measures of ability
There are numerous factors when it comes to standardized testing scores. Test-taking skills are valued more than practical skill development, and most learning is not reflected by these tests. I would say evaluating teachers based on the performance of their students on these tests makes more sense than going by seniority, but it's still seriously flawed.Misconception #76: Unions represent teachers
If you visit the websites for the NEA and AFT, it becomes clear that they expect teachers to represent them rather than the other way around. They are not gathering views nearly as much as they are trying to control the views of their members.Misconception #77: Layoffs and transfers should be based solely off of seniority
Seniority says absolutely nothing about performance, so we shouldn't be using that as the basis for so many decisions.Misconception #78: Teaching is a higher calling
Teaching is a choice. There is no higher power calling teachers to the profession, and teachers aren't inherently superior to others.Misconception #79: Teachers are underpaid
The belief that teachers are underpaid comes from two frequently erroneous assumptions about the teaching profession. With all the misleading stories about teachers struggling, people think that teachers make less than they do. These same people also overestimate the value of the teaching profession. Considering teachers are doing more harm than good to society, I don't hesitate to say that teachers are clearly overpaid.Misconception #80: Nobody should be allowed to learn because not everybody wants to
This has come up when I made an argument about not being allowed to learn in school. Someone insisted that the reason for this is because not everybody wants to learn. Sorry, but students whose desire to learn has been destroyed by the schools is not a valid argument to prohibit learning for those who have maintained the desire.Misconception #81: Teachers can always be trusted
About half of everything my teachers told me when I was in school turned out to be false. The reason people think teachers are trustworthy is because they never question what their teachers tell them.Misconception #82: Teachers are respectful
I never had a teacher who showed respect for students. Overall, I would say that teaching is among the world’s least respectful professions.Misconception #83: Support from their students proves the value of teachers
There are three big reasons students supporting their teachers shouldn't be taken seriously. First, students are provided with an intentionally skewed narrative that can sway their perspectives. Second, the culture of fear means that supporters of teachers are more likely to share their views than the critics. Third, people who are critical of the profession are generally not given as much of a voice as the supporters.Misconception #84: It's racist to want options for children
Although it's true that some states pushed vouchers as a way to avoid integration, it's absurd to frame the entirety of school choice around that one item. Choice was also promoted as a tool for integration, and minorities are more supportive of choice than white families. By contrast, government-controlled schools had to be forced by the supreme court to allow black students. Simply put, I reject the idea that it's racist not to be on the same side of history as the Ku Klux Klan.Misconception #85: We need smaller class sizes
Technically speaking, the implications of student-to-teacher ratio vary drastically based on such things as methodology and even the strengths of a specific teacher. If teachers are abusive to students and counterproductive to the educational process, which was common when I attended, smaller class sizes can actually allow teachers to cause more harm.Misconception #86: People need the schools because they can't get a job without them
There is nothing that can be learned in school that can't be learned elsewhere. The idea that people can't get a job without schools is due to discriminatory practices that put the value of schooling above the value of education. People are frequently deprived of opportunities if they learn outside of a restrictive schooling environment. We should be addressing this form of discrimination, not strengthening it.Misconception #87: Over-education is bad for society
One of the understated goals of our schooling system is to prevent over-education. I reject the concept of over-education. Yes, picking education over schooling can cause problems, but that's due to problems with living in an anti-educational society. We should maximize educational opportunities instead of using schools to suppress education.Misconception #88: The increased number of jobs requiring college is proof that we need more people to graduate from college
Most jobs that require college didn't used to. The increased demand for college does more to prove that we are discriminatory against those who learn elsewhere more than they prove the value of college. The solution to the increased demand is not to push more people to go through college regardless of whether or not they learn well in that environment. Instead, we need to stop slamming doors shut on people, some of them highly capable, who learn elsewhere. Don't forget that more degrees will lead to credential inflation, which reduces opportunities for people without the degree and people without advanced degrees.Misconception #89: Children should actively pursue what they want to become
We have fixated so much on what children will become that we neglect who they will become. For those of us who view people as more than their jobs, who they will become should be the higher priority.Misconception #90: Literacy is the most important lesson to learn
If I had to choose between working with an illiterate genius or a literate imbecile, I wouldn't hesitate to pick the genius. Literacy is important, but I value developing the thought process more than becoming literate.Misconception #91: Emotional abuse isn't real
You can have hurt feelings without being emotionally abused. Because of how some people have misused the term for things that clearly don't qualify as emotional abuse, some people are under the impression that emotional abuse isn't real. Emotional abuse is not only real, but it is the most widely used motivational tool used by teachers. They are creating a culture of fear to scare children into letting the schools control their childhoods. This has serious negative implications for the mental health of students.Misconception #92: Changing books is changing a teaching system
Misconception #92: Changing books is changing a teaching system
Schools have become so incapable of change that we tend to exaggerate insignificant changes. I saw this with a change in math books. Changing books has been thought of as changing systems regardless of how little the teachers actually change. Changing systems takes more than changing books.
