A bit concerned about the hyper-stimulation but this actually gives me a lot of hope and I think it'll be worth it. What the teachers are concerned about here is their pathetic institution of teaching which has not revolutionized with the time. It's amazing (is that the right word?) that the teacher is annoyed by his students "cheating" on the test but they don't see the fallacy of determining one's trajectory through a single point (1 hour exam).
The system is pathetic and hopefully the new generation is smarter, sees it for what it is, spends its time on screen/video games and let these bureaucrats infinitely scratch their heads.
> And they have a level of apathy that I’ve never seen before in my whole career. Punishments don’t work because they don’t care about them. They don’t care about grades. They don’t care about college.
This made my day...
- chrisco255 2y agoI'm sorry what? Exams aren't a fallacy, they're the only way to actually test someone's knowledge. There is no replacement for that. If you let students cheat on exams they will never learn anything.
- sethammons 2y agoA traditional school exam is not the only way to test knowledge. Project work, for example. At work, your knowledge is tested by the output you produce.
