Is it even possible to brainstorm education design? How would you evaluate ideas?
How do we define learning objectives? How do we measure learning outcomes?
The problems with education are not solved by arbitrary discussions. Discussions will remain superficial until we have more consensus on the true nature of education, I think.
- mkuhn 17y agoSo let's start there, what do you think is the nature of education?
- jonsen 17y agoThat's a big question. Ultimately human education is nothing but an evolutionary drive. You have to learn some basics to become a functional member of society. To survive and to keep society rolling. How an individual actually ends up being able to perform and actually performs is accidental to a high degree. The overall societal effect of this mass of arbitrary performers is a very complex phenomenon. To really study that we should look to the field of systems theory. And I believe the deep answers to this question can only come from systems theory.
- mkuhn 17y agoYou have a very interesting take on the topic. You start on a much lower level than I would have but I will think about it. Thanks for the inspiration.
