Basically, is it that our education system just -blam!-s all over us or is it that we don't get motivated to learn?
Both, but I'm willing to lean on our education system being more flawed.
please elaborate!
Thoughts of having a standardized model comes to mind, so does teaching kids to score well on tests rather than teaching them the skills they need to be intelligent adults or the skills they need for a good, decent blue/white collar job. Coming from Texas I know what you are talking about. Texas' public schools are required to give out the TAKs test (well I don't know if they still do since I go to a private school now)and teachers basically teach students how to pass that instead of actual, usable knowledge.
