Okay, so let me read that title to you again Paradigm shift in education Krishnamurti on the educator raw on ignorance Gato on the system and hamming on learning First paragraph if I'm quoting anything, I'll put it in code So first paragraph and this first paragraph basically sums up my core Perspective are on our current education system The root cause of society's ills is how we deal with education Deep down we all know this but for decades. We have barely lifted a finger to address it The main reason for this inaction is because most of us are are ourselves Products of this defective system. We have been programmed for obedience Turn into self-absorbed apathetic beings that submit to authority and fear dissent That's the first paragraph and right below that I link to an art to a video by no Chomsky and It's titled education is a system of indoctrination Indoctrination of the youth highly recommend watching that video. Okay, the next paragraph We are bombarded with propaganda that wants us to believe in the economy That if everyone had a job and the economy was growing at whatever rate our centralized government had set Then all would be well. There are two problems with this mindset. First our crony cannibalistic economic system is Will never reach this zenith Second, it's a lie. A better economy is not the solution to our woes What is is educating our children to become integrated beings free of envy and materialism? Unfortunately our present education system is not set up to achieve this task Not yet anyway, but it's coming and it will change everything and here below that paragraph I link to a video by Alan Watts and it's titled. What is money? What if money was no object? Okay worth watching The next paragraph This is a there is a war going on for the hearts and minds of our children for the control of the future Our present education system is collapsing and numerous parties are vying over Who will be the dominant player during this revolution? Hence the faction faction and control of the system From billionaires like rupert murdoch and bill gates to politicians governments traditional and charter schools massive online Courses homeschoolers teachers unions and parents everyone is joining the fray and for all of those names and Systems teachers units all of those i've provided links to articles that were active live When I initially wrote that piece and below that paragraph I link to a ken roberson Robinson's speech that many people have seen And it's titled how to escape education's death Valley and he gave this on ted talk right? next paragraph No matter no matter what the final outcome the simple fact is that a centralized system should never again Be allowed to dominate education in our society We are diverse and social creatures and require intimate and personal stimulation to grow learn question and create To be educated. We need engagement to be fulfilled. We need to be triggered We need educators that engage students to challenge inspire and motivate Okay And below that I linked to an art to a video that's dead now. Okay, and it's basically Reaction of a student in school and you can find tons of these it's just this one I recall while because the student stood up in class and really Put the teacher And the system in its place. Okay, it was phenomenal, right? And it's titled or used to be titled High school student goes off on teacher about his education. Okay And there's other links there's interview with Jeff bliss below now. I can't even remember what that is The following two paragraphs As for how we can achieve this task the answer has been available for decades. We just haven't acted on them Below you will find some examples of what needs to be done What follows are excerpts from krishna mortis Judy judo krishna mortis education and the significance of life It links to a pdf and I put out a video where we read excerpts of krishna mortis education and the significance of life And that book I highly recommend reading for any parent for any student for any educator And in my opinion, it should be mandatory reading for everyone in school, right?

Okay, and my intro to these excerpts is To say that our education system is broken and in need of a gargantuanum overhaul is an understatement But it will happen since it is inevitable side effect of the liberation of data that comes with an open internet What form these new systems of education will take are yet to be determined Only time will tell if they will be optimized replicas of the present models Or if they will be based on a new way of teaching and thought Either way the overhaul is long overdue and I for one am excited to see the transformation Below you will find excerpts from three excellent articles on education that address some of the problems With our current systems. They are well worth the read. Okay
