Another approach would be to teach a child only one subject and base all lesson around that subject till college. For example, biology; all math examples would deal with biology, all fiction books would have something to do with bio, the classroom would be filled with biographies of people in biology, art would be based around drawings in biology.

- sitkack 6y agoRather than some weird society based off of specialized geniuses, why not just make metageniuses that are good at general learning? Isn't that what the education system should be doing? Most things in life really aren't that hard and with <80 hrs of hands on training people are able are often able to self teach and know when to ask questions and where to ask them. What if we got that down to 20 or 10?
