I disagree very much with the actions of school boards in California to lower standards, yes. What does this have to do with idiot Karen’s using this Florida law to ban anything they don’t like?

 

How about changing school names?  Removing statues?  Shouting down speakers?  Do you also have a problem with those?

It was just a general question. I wasn’t referring to any Florida law and I’m not familiar with it. It’s a fine line , but the statue of David belongs in a school. A book describing a gay relationship does not imo. At least not until a certain age. Definitely not elementary or even junior high school.

Anything Confederate should be relegated to a museum where we can point and laugh at the traitors who tried to tear the union apart.

Reminder that parents are the dumbest knuckle dragging snowflakes out there.

 


So parents didn’t want their second grade child to watch a PG rated movie (assuming you are unfamiliar with what PG abbreviates) under the stewardship of the local public school in case they needs to understand complicated themes..  and that makes them dumb knuckle dragging snowflakes?
😂

 

do the wold a favor- please don’t procreate or adopt.  Draw the line at hearty houseplant.

I asked my media center specialist today why it was that one parent could get an historically accurate movie pulled from the whole school when 90+% approved of their children watching. (I will add here I fully support the few parents who wanted their children pulled from class that day) The big reason is that someone in the school district wants to make a big deal of it. There is no reason that the review had to be more than a quick meeting, with all people stating the movie is historically accurate and does not blame children for what their grandparents might have done.  The larger shut down of the film is someone using it for a showboating  reason.

Sick. They are supposed to be educators. not using kids as props for politics.

Its nuts NYS doesn't even require math or science past the 10th grade for graduation.

Are you okay with the airline Pilot on your flight getting the job because they’re a person of color rather than the most qualified ? 
 Unfortunately those with room temperature IQs are making decisions on educational curricula across the country. BLM, LGTBQ, pronouns, “ institutional racism “ etc etc. Reading, writing and Arithmetic are out the window. They may have their useless degrees, but these are some very dumb people. 

you mean like the people who run the space program, develop medicines and new surgeries, encode the human genome, develop AI etc?  Those morons?

I think seeking knowledge in almost any field is a worthwhile pursuit.  Some areas much more impactful than others.  The common denominator is education.  Which I support.  You?

70/20/10 rule no longer exist with knowledge?

 

 

 

70% is experience.

 

20% from others.

 

10% formal education

hmmm, astrophysicists learn 70% from experience?  Book learning of math and physics is only 10%.  And for Chemists?  Book learning about bonds, thermodynamics, the periodic table etc = 10%.  Geneticists?  Physicians?

nope, not in my experience😂

"They asked nearly 200 executives to self-report on how they believe they learned. The results were shocking — at least at the time. 

Respondents suggested that 70% of their learning came from challenging assignments (or experience on the job). A further 20% came from developmental relationships (or through social learning). Together, these two methods are often referred to as informal learning. That’s because they don’t follow a specified pattern and occur naturally on their own. 

The last piece of the puzzle is formal learning. The model states that only 10% of our learning is down to formal training and a structured learning programme."

 

You see executives and scientists are usually two different sets of people.  Scientists would have asked a representative swath of the population how they thought they learned and then test the hypothesis with studies.

Just stating a known and used formula for Knowledge vs information.

And that's just one link to a generic site. there are entire books on this topic.

And you just explained the scientist learning through the 70% and 20 factor. 

 

the 10% would be said scientist taking a formal class on it.

entire books.  wow!  based on a survey of 200 executives that no doubt advanced deep knowledge of our existence disproportionally to other professionals...

Education is not the common denominator when ‘knowledge’ and ‘education’ are repurposed to propagate nonsense, politically derived narratives and pseudoscience.  
 

In some cases it runs deliberately counter to education, it actually fills a vacuum of no knowledge with bad knowledge.  
 

It’s far more important to educate with facts and hard science as well as critical thinking and logic… and let knowledge grow organically.

I agree. Making standards easier instead of providing more funding to schools is the easy way out in the short term, with long term negative effects.

The problem is we also are near the top in the nation for cost as well.  Seems we have been tossing money at it.  It's more than that.

You can toss all the money at it you want.  If a parent(s) don't want to stress the value of education and/or the kids don't want to put in the work, there's little you can do.
