How would you fix the American Education Problem?

1. Repeal "No Child Left Behind" and ban standardized tests.
2. Ban open classrooms. Rows of desks only, no tables.
3. Ban technology except in tech classes. No laptops for students. no tablets for students.
4. Ban homework.
5. Free breakfast and lunch.
6. Free equipment. No fundraising.
Nobody does homework now anyway so it doesn't matter. The point of homework is to instill into kids that, if they go to college or have a serious job, they will need to perform work/education related activities outside of work hours.
7. Teach kids etymology and how to read phonetically instead of relying on context.
8. LLMs should be allowed but the kids have to learn tensor math and build them.
ban standardized tests
Why do you think this is a good idea?
Free breakfast and lunch
Who pays for it and why should they eat for free?
That would have poor people send their children to school more often or have more children than they can afford to feed themselves.
Learn with Bharat, of course.

Poor people being less dumb is a good thing !
Remove incompetent male teachers
I would put Mutahar from ordinary gamers in charge
remove social media
remove cell phones
remove laptops
go back to shitty dial up internet
Remove incompetent male teachers
How do you determine who the incompetent teachers are?
the ones who don't spank the cute girls are incompetent
a serious job
What's hilarious is that it totally, utterly stops once you get a "real job" which (by statistical reality) is about 2 hours of productivity per 8 of work, and that's average so for every hard grinder like (You) who is putting in 8 hours real work and 2 or 3 hours of answering emails at home there's a WFHmaxxer who does 2 zoom meetings, answers a few slack messages and otherwise just watches porno on the side monitor for 8 hours.
School doesn't teach you anything at all unless you are a retard (like YOU) or need to learn how to cuck (like YOU). Even most faggots come by it naturally, only a really useless person would have to study to take it in the asshole from women and their pet simps.
We should feed the children free of charge
Who pays for it and why should they eat for free?!?
America is so fucking cooked lmfao
Ban most black youth from even attending, instant fix
But what will they do
Same do they do while in school work on becoming a criminal menace to society in the future
Free food at school is a failed experiment. The idea was if we send the poor kids to school they will get an education and enrich themselves, their family, their community, and the nation. As it stands, it just means that they get free food and then remain poor because they are retarded. The few kids who are genuinely high IQ and poor by circumstance should be identified and saved early, most poor kids are retarded and should be cut out of the school system completely in order to redirect more resources towards the ones who do show potential.
Potential to do what exactly?
repeat, forever... and get more and more jealous with every life time...
You're extremely callous towards children who even poor are the future of our country. School lunch and breakfast are sometimes the only real meals some kids get in a day. Even if they are lower middle class, sometimes their parents just suck and are selfish assholes. Are you just against all social programs or just eugenics-minded Jimmy neutron style about them? Should you have to take an intelligence test as a pre-kindergartner before you get a free sandwich
4. Ban homework.
I don't know about that. Some kids totally space out in class and then self-learn through homework assignments. That's what I always did.
mandatory shop class
fine wordworking and sculpting as arts credits
math and hard science classes are interchangable credits
make homeroom classes do fundraisers, cultural activities, and take field trips together, kinda like in the nip system
make humanities classes actually cool by letting kids pick what books they read
STOP TEACHING THE HOLOCAUST AND TRANSATLANTIC SLAVE TRADE IN EVERY FUCKING HISTORY CLASS
allow students to schedule free periods to go outside, play sports, and walk to close by stores and restaurants
mandatory serious physical education class for each year, like weightlifting or team sports
also hire more male teachers
make joining a club mandatory
like if they let me write about storm of steel and all quiet on the western front, or learn about cars or furniture making, i probably would have tried in school
STOP TEACHING THE HOLOCAUST AND TRANSATLANTIC SLAVE TRADE IN EVERY FUCKING HISTORY CLASS
Says it all about you.
STOP TEACHING THE HOLOCAUST AND TRANSATLANTIC SLAVE TRADE IN EVERY FUCKING HISTORY CLASS
Self report
Anti-intellectual faggots (like YOU!) are why the world is a bad place.
had to write essays on how bad it was in 7th grad history
had to write essays on how bad it was in 8th grade history
had to write essays on how bad it was in american studies freshman year
had to write essays on how bad it was in ap gov sophomore year
had to write essays on how bad it was in ap us junior year
had to write essays on how bad it was in english 101 senior year
dude the most eye opening things i would learn about in history was doing my own research on german art in the 1920s
the most i eye opening thing i learned about in us gov was about the mistreatment of the american indians and japanese
the most eye opening thing i learned about in english was the relationship between france and algeria after reading l'etranger
like i wouldnt consider myself a 3rd positionist or anything like that, but you get tired of hearing about auschwitz after like the third year
STOP TEACHING THE HOLOCAUST AND TRANSATLANTIC SLAVE TRADE IN EVERY FUCKING HISTORY CLASS
the thing/problem about grade school is that 'history' class just goes through the history of everything, and then does the same thing the next year, and the same thing the next year, so, naturally, you talk about american settlers/founding and then ww2 over and over
unlike when you take a history class at the college/university level, you get into more specific eras and specific locations
but how else are you supposed to teach history to grade schoolers? as they advance, they'll start to recognize the importance of certain events and they'll be able to form better opinions themselves
what if school was like school but in nazi Germany
Is... is this what progs are afraid of when they call people "fascists"? Kids learning about art, doing sports and engaging with culture and history?
Finland got rid of homework
I want to be cool like Finland
ww2 class
early american history
feudal europe and middle east
feudal asia
recent american history(post civil war)
ancient rome and greece
ancient china
ancient middle east
victorian europe
some vague ideas for classes you could all get covered with like 3 history teachers
social lessons in each period
your average high schooler would be pretty interested with these classes
all these classes will teach you how slavery is stupid and how racism is pretty lame
this has gotta be bait because if you think kids shouldnt learn how to work in a shop or go play sports you really dont know how to raise healthy teenage boys
so, 3rd graders get ww2 class
4th gets early american history
5th gets feudal europe and middle east
etc... ?
idk what you're trying to say, but this idea is dumb
oh my god i thought you were talking about high schoolers
Itd be interesting if the American education system was less academic and more practical life skills based. Teach kids how to cook. How to replace an electrical outlet. Basic plumbing. How to budget and stretch a hundred dollars. How to obtain a good credit score. How to rear children even. Shit like that. Cuz lets face it 90% of the shit for brains out there have no business reading beyond a fifth grade level or learning math beyond long division. Just my two cents.
Best kids were African immigrants. Boy from Rwanda got into Stanford.
This is why I am not a Anon Babble racist. I have met African immigrants who were hardworking, disciplined, humble and fairly intelligent. Very religious often.
The issues feel cultural. Shit parenting and shit culture.
You do realize the Africans that make it to the United States are generally the cream of the crop right?
How would you fix the American Education Problem?
There's nothing wrong with it. It's broken on purpose. The goal isn't to improve or fix it, everyone knows how. It's to make it worse and support "private" schools (just don't talk about how they get government funding) and the owner can get richer.
I would restrict how much people can make money. There's no reason to work hard if somebody can just pay himself infinite amounts and lobby to increase contingencies on a market that only those with alot of money can externalize.
And not only how much, also how the money can be done. I would ban all landlords, limit the use of stocks to financing operations, standardized salaries so its not for greed, and remove all requirments for licensing, with the caveat that the degree of certs have to be clearly displayed before doing any sorts of business, otherwise you get nitpickers that try to prevent everyone from working to do a wage cartel.
Maybe, but if you can't teach what needs to be learned in your 90 min class, giving a bunch of homework that kids are going to resent won't somehow make them learn better. Standardized memorize-and-regurgitate tests teach nothing practical aside from "how well can you retain data over a period of 1-3 weeks". Critical thinking and understand are so much more important than memorizing dates and formulas.
US public school is so comically outdated in some parts of the country. It may as well still be 1949.
Your view is pretty common.
Part of school is just a way of selecting pupils who are diligent, hardworking and reasonably intelligent so they can be prepared for university and a middle class job. It might sound harsh but low-key school itself is like a sieve that separates the wheat from the chaff. Those able to do upper middle class jobs ect and those who suck at school or hate it going into manual labour or service jobs. That was literally the explicit purpose of exams.
I think there are some other uses of school. If you are going to be able to vote then citizens need to be informed about geography, history, political ideology, science ect. A better informed population should ideally make better decisions. Less likely to be fooled by bullshit.
Maybe, but if you cant teach what needs to be learned in your 90 min class, giving a bunch of homework that kids are going to resent wont somehow make them learn better.
Yeah not how learning works. I do not know what your education background is but the statement you just made is very telling that you did not like school.
Getting good at problem solving and maths is a skill in the same way boxing and playing guitar is a skill. The more you do it the better you get a it. The faster and more accurate you get.
Sometimes, you just have to grind something like playing a chord 100 times or throwing a punch combo 100 to get it perfect.
Sometimes you just have to do like 100 integration problems for you to get very good and quick at solving. You start to see intuitive patterns quickly. It is like weightlifting. You get better.
you libtards are very stupid and feminine
This is good and this is right. No one actually gives a fuck about kids, they give a fuck about their jobs in their own special, pissy little annoying ways and think their homework is somehow "fun" or "special" enough to take time away. The fact that homework assignments aren't coordinated and networked but that each teacher has the discretion to rob as much of the child's time as they deem fit says it all about how we respect the time of the child, and the smart ones see that.
how do you do this without getting sanctioned from every other country like South Africa
Should you have to take an intelligence test as a pre-kindergartner before you get a free sandwich
that's not a bad idea
There's nothing wrong with it. It's broken on purpose. The goal isn't to improve or fix it, everyone knows how.
This is just low iq cope
The american education system is fine, it works great for US WHITES and ASIANS who outscore their cousins in their home countries.
You will never be able to educate blacks at large. I don't see why we pretend we can, it has never happened and never will, so who gives a shit that schools in the hood are just black kid daycare? keeps em off the streets a bit
Iq does not work that way. you can't just grind it up
You're' correct that IQ doesn't work that way, but if you're a normie tier IQ you can certainly hone your skills and get better at something if you truly care to.
