Main purpose of any education system in General Discussion
Kotato

    is not to educate masses of population, but to detect the 0.01% of the most talented people and to foster their career prospects. Scanning for Einsteins is the vital importance, teaching average students smth useful is a side effect

      education is for dumb people
      real Einsteins watch anime and play video games all day

              You seem to have a track record of bad opinions as of late. Bad kotato.

                eh? education has always been about breaking free spirits and training them up to be production line workers/call centre employees. the upper class schools focus on networking. no-one cares about finding an Einstein.

                        Why has this forum turned into a pool of "I'm 19 and here is my edgy post-pubertal thought on a rl topic that I know exactly nothing about" threads lately?

                          ^well, then you go and make some interesting posts yourself instead of criticizing everything

                              Education is flawed but in general it prepares the majority of young people to function in society by giving them life skills and knowledge. Education isnt about finding gifted people, its about attempting to get the most people possible to fulfil their potential.

                                        Well the fact that someone with your attitude towards education would be allowed to work in an academic capacity is astonishing to me

                                          found any einsteins yet?

                                          yes, there are about 5%-10% of every class with very higher potential, they make me feel like the teaching was worth it

                                                                      The top 0.01% usually fall outside the system and don’t benefit from it.
