RE: Stop Teaching Students WHAT to Think. Teach Them HOW to Think.
I agree completely.
We need to change the definition of work. For some reason, many cling to this idea of the "Protestant" work ethic where one's worth is derived based upon the work he/she does and the time/commitment to doing it. I think this absurd.
Here is a new way of thinking....one has worth simply because he or she exists no matter what the profession.
I said for year, if you are on welfare and go to the park to pick up trash, you are a drain on society. However, if you pick up trash at the park and you have your name on your shirt along with the City of SoandSo, you are doing your job and contributing. Same actions for probably the same money but different perspectives.
We are going to see this become more mainstream in the next couple years as technology starts to disrupt many industries and unemployment due to automation really starts to creep in.
Excellent article.
