Education...

The video in class wich we watched was hugely impactful. It was eye opening to see some of the things that people who have been trained by this education, want to change with the education. In my life I feel that many of my friends have said things about what they dislike about this education system, but I'm so used to blowing it off because they are all my age and can't do anything immediate about it. The in depth look that we got with this video was the best part, we saw the idea that we are completely learning the wrong way. For example, whats the point of spending $110 on a text book when we live in this world with such updated and new technology that there are much more affordable ways to learn. Whats the point in exams when in real life, we have instruction, abilities to "Google", and the ability to call someone and as? What's the point in requiring us to find x-mr+67473/44 if were not going to be an astronaut? The list goes on and on. The dangerous part for our leaders in the education system, is that our eyes are now opened.
