RE: Learned Helplessness: The Real Curriculum of Public Schools
Excellent my brother. Also, public school runs on the assumption that education could never be cool enough in our culture to warrant the demand in the market. Sad.
Too true. The very statement “X makes LEARNING FUN” is an implicit message that learning is a chore. It’s fucking ugly. Pardon my French, but when we rape children of their innate and intrinsic love of learning by sending the message that learning is a chore, it kills their natural spark of curiosity inside, slowly but surely dulling their zest and zeal for life, and their natural, insatiable curiosity and appetite for knowledge. It’s a tragedy and travesty of the most putrid, egregious, and patheticly evil degree.
