Interesting that they don’t mention pressures associated with schooling, such as the pressure to get into a good college bleeding into every aspect of the academic experience, or the school shooter drills now normalized. But they do mention anxiety, lol
- foxyv 3y agoI was browsing the left side of the internet on my second YouTube profile and ran into Zoe Bee talking about grading and motivation. The takeaway was that it is more about controlling students than education. I think 99% of the anxiety I experienced as a teenager was frustration about the insane levels of control that children are placed under. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fe-SZ_FPZew https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fe-SZ_FPZew If I had kids of my own I think I would encourage them to skip the last years of high school and just get an online degree if they didn't enjoy themselves. Maybe look into taking community college courses instead after getting a GED. There are so many better options now.
