When a subject becomes totally obsolete we make it a required course.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I feel that education needs an overhaul - courses are obsolete and grades are on the way out.
One of our brainchildren is a still viable Science and Society course.
It should be mandatory that you understand computer science.
Learning isn't meant to be confined to a box, and students virtually never 'master' a topic simply by taking a class.
We should have A-levels in vocational subjects.
We assert that the subject is crucial and only that subject matter is valid which is tragic and timeless.
Instead, most colleges are studies in obsolescence.
We were given clear concrete tools. The course did a great job demystifying the art of fiction writing and fostering confidence. The instructor brought complex concepts down to earth. I will miss coming here every week.
Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.
Learning is not compulsory... neither is survival.
