Curious to hear people’s ideas on how education would look in such a world.
For me, I’d like to see it moved away from testing and results based learning.
A stronger focus on physical engagement with things, e.g. learning biology by going out and cataloging wildlife and learning what’s in a local ecosystem before coming together and researching findings and looking for new questions to ask.
Less sitting around at desks being fed information and a greater focus on individual agency in exploring topics of interest.
Not to say there isn’t a time and a place for “high level” stuff where you need to deep dive into books and listen to lectures, but there needs to be a greater balance in methodology.
What if its the inverse though, teachers that don’t want critical race theory but parents wanting it?
I’m not saying it as a hypothetical this just was my experience in school. My parents were way more progressive than the teachers were.
See way back to the beginning where it’s the students increasingly deciding the course material democratically in my scenario.
Students check the teachers and teachers check the students, parents BTFO.
So parents and the rest of society have no say in how its ran?
Ok you’re just sealioning now. See previous response about “no, just not the fucking classroom because concerned parents in the classroom is an abomination”
No I honestly just don’t see where you address that. I keep saying that the community and parents SHOULD have as say in setting the agenda and curriculum of the classroom, but it should be done in equal collaboration with students and staff.
You seem to be saying it should be just be a collaboration of students and staff.
