Can you elaborate on this? In what way does these high schools encourage stupidity. (I am also curious as to how these places encourage stupidity as opposed to, say, not encouraging creativity or something like that)
- csomar 15y agoMaths is supposed a field where students think and solve problems. What happens, is that with the current educational system and the student only-interest is to get a good grade, they don't solve problems. Instead, they work on memorizing most of them. Teachers follows the same direction, by giving exams that they have covered or are available in some series. This encourage stupidity. Students don't think in problems. They remember them. That's why, students rank bad in the national exam (BAC), even though you'll find it 10 easier than what they get in high schools. Most of the students grades decrease in BAC (by 5-10%). Mine increased by around 20%. No intelligence involved from my part, it was a lot easier and simpler.
