i am sad that i rarely experienced teachers behaving and communicating in ways that encourage self discovery and self initiated learning, and simply listening to my needs, instead of the curriculum's.
The response by CommonsenseBrigade is full on propaganda.Why should we use words like hands-on and progressive with quotation marks? What's the matter,CommonSenseSquad can't speak 4 lanuages?I know I can: Estonian,English,Russian and German,and I'm starting to learn Latin in depth too.Nice Bach music on the background.Education was fracked up at some point.By the way progressive and hands-on schools go through the national curriculums and are good at nailing national exams around the world.
Then why does this work? How come it's bad to let children come to the conclusion that learning is actually fun? Schools today subliminally teach that it's not meant to be fun and there is no application by the students to learn. When they want to learn, they do it much more effectively.
No, rote learning is merely holding information. It doesn't teach children how to get it for themselves, how to appreciate it, and how to build on it.
Rote learning is giving the child a piece of bread and butter. Sure, it fills them up. It gives them what they need, fundamentally.
Active Participation is teaching the children how to grow the grain, make the bread and sell it at a profit.

They go to these great schools...and then go on to go to mind numbing "you must memorise" type of high schools. That's not a solution.

Nonsense from the "Progressive" movement in education. Shallow learning via "hands-on" activities.
What they villify as "rote" learning is actually what makes people smart.

They, my friend, are like Vulcans of Star Trek fames and like humans of more over-all goodness.
