Here you will find some of the greatest quotes about Education.
The education system is a relic, it has to be destroyed and completely rebuilt.
I was a near-excellent student. I had decent teachers. I have a good memory. Then why do I remember next to nothing from School?
Nothing really important about life is taught in school.
We learn many more facts than we need. Facts are learned and forgotten.
No one teaches us how to deal with feelings, emotions, and our internal world.
The number one priority for any educational system should be fostering a supportive atmosphere where children care for each other until they grow up and enter free-of-oversight life with an open heart, honest thoughts, and an emotionally intelligent mind.
Feelings can not be excluded from school. Kids and teenagers still carry them. A system ignoring and suppressing feelings is psychologically damaging.
Love and Freedom are the building blocks for the good in life.
The aspiration for Truth, which is the basis for Science and education, cannot even be understood if you lack Love or understanding of why Freedom is important.
Freedom means only the rules the students agree with, period. Give them a blank rulebook and let them write. There is no other way if you want decent engagement later.
No smartphones in school under 16. Thus no support for social media. We have to destroy the current addiction model.
School should not begin before 9:00, period.
No religious or political subjects. Most kids and adolescents don’t have critical thinking developed yet, so this principle is needed to protect against their manipulation and indoctrination in questionable belief systems.
Schools make one very wrong wishful thinking assumption about students: That they are all already motivated to learn. While in fact, creating the conditions for this Motivation is their main Job.
Simplicity is underrated.
Humans are wrong most of the time whether they admit it or not.
When we accept mediocre educational systems, we accept mediocrity for the whole world, for life. And this is absolutely unacceptable.
