 What are the three things that will revolutionize the education system? If you're like me you look back at your education and you're like so many things were done wrong And I was just reading an article that said US Student loan debt has now reached 1.2 trillion dollars. That's just in the United States and People are talking about the global trade deficit and all that that's at like 800 million. You guys is a 1.2 trillion dollars that people owe For all these loans some to private loans some to government loans By the way, I'm here in San Diego enjoying You can see the ocean out there a little bit and I was just reading some articles I was like I've got to talk about this because I can think of three things off the top of my head that would That had they happened to you and I when we're growing up would have set our life on a completely different trajectory Been so much easier to be successful financially and all that so let me give you the three number one There should be a refund policy for universities Joseph Stiglitz won a Nobel Prize as an economist and he wrote a book and he basically says he thinks that the current US Educational system the higher university system Qualifies as a scam because you can't get your money back, you know Walmart You they pioneered Easy refunds you don't even need a receipt and people thought when they first started doing that people were like no That's crazy. Everybody's gonna want their money back, but people are more fair than you think So if universities were offering refunds to people who felt like hey I spent four years of my life and possibly $40,000 or more on my education And I can't even get a job and in fact I have no practical skill Now some people would say what about liberal liberal arts education and so on look That's great to get a liberal arts education, but you know a better way to get a liberal arts education Know how to create an income for yourself and then travel the world. I Mean this is not the 1700s so much of our education system is still tied to literally centuries old Methodologies now you want to learn about ancient Egyptian history go to Egypt Now in order for that to be practical for millions of people People have to have jobs because you can't travel if you don't have any money So the this refund policy would force universities to focus down on At the end of four years and 40 grand spent people feel like yes I'm now gonna get a return on my money and they could have a refund policy with some fine print that says You know if you're able to get a job in the field that you majored in Then you can't qualify for the refund that would eliminate people who try to cheat the system But for people who go and they go to school and and then they come out and they can't get a job And they're part of 1.2 trillion dollars. That's 1200 fat. It's 1200 billion dollars in debt. This is a major problem heads roll over 100 billion dollars. We're talking now 10 times that 12 times that Number two thing that the education system that would revolutionize the education system would be if you would Teach social and emotional IQ type lessons in elementary junior high school Public speaking Sales Conflict how to deal with those things How to read people so that you could find business partners who to marry who to date There's so much progress has been done in psychological Profiling that could be taught. I wish I had learned that I would have been interested in that stuff In fact students are more interested in cutting-edge Learning cutting-edge things than that like that than they are just in learning, you know Geography and social studies best way to learn geography travel the world You want to know you want Americans to know that between Sweden and Switzerland have them not be in 1.2 trillion dollars in debt So they have extra income to travel world. That is what will change the world. So I am such a big believer that The problems are fixable. I have hope and I think that you already see these things You know, one of my businesses one of my companies is is an educated online education private company It's not an accredited college. It's taking what accredited colleges haven't been able to do and offering those to people So I've got a lot of experience in seeing how well this can work and you got to teach other stuff You can't just teach geometry isosceles triangle. You can't just teach wrote memory history like, you know Civil war starts this year ends this year You can't just do they can't just make people memorize what the capital of each state is if you need to know the capital of Montana And you don't know it. It's not life-threatening. It's not career-ending You can Google it But if you don't have a practical skill how to start a business or if you're an employee how to rise up in that business If you don't have tangible skills in a career You're not gonna make any money and one of my family members went to school spent like 50 60 grand in debt four years First for a Spanish degree and I said, why don't you just go live in Spain? You can actually get paid to learn Spanish and you'll learn better Spanish. You'll learn it faster You'll learn it with and it'll be more fun so if you you know if the modern education system had an emphasis on Practical skills all the way through in addition to some abstract stuff. You're gonna need some math You're gonna need a little bit of geometry and all that some of it's okay, but it's too much so Whenever I talk to this about people everybody 100% of adults go man I wish I came out of school with great social skills public speaking skills persuasion skills scale sales skills reading people skills Which brings me to my third point the third thing that would revolutionize the education system is if there was Personalities a series of personality tests because different tests are a hundred percent accurate and they test for different things You know these tests would go a battery of tests that students member students got from age six years old to 18 In the junior high and high school and elementary system So you're talking you got 12 years to administer these tests You don't have to do them on one day then you would take the results and adjust accordingly What you teach the kids and how two things what you teach them and how some people from personality tests like in the hexaco test Which is the most scientific cutting-edge test developed in 2000. It's a variation of the big five tests It's widely respected There's correlations people low and conscientiousness high and conscientiousness low and agreeableness high high an extra version verse Introversion they do better and they're attracted to different fields social facilitation skills practical manual labor skills accounting management of people all that Should be based on personalities going back to the refund system the second you made universities have refunds mark my words They would start doing a battery of personality test because they don't want to give money back Right and so they would say hey Bob you were wanting to get an Egyptian You know medieval history major. Why don't you do that as a minor? and I'll teach you something else, you know, like why don't you learn how to open a restaurant or Learn how to do sales or something. I mean look, let's be practical about life You're gonna have to know some down-to-earth skills to make it everybody does it should be teaching real estate Investing all these things should be taught. These are kind of things that you're gonna need from the day you graduate high school until the day you die and Because these three things have not been implemented You see Massive problems in the world whether it be economic growth issues whether you see recession even wars and crime At the root of this the issues around the world in inner cities In all this stuff that you see in the news now, you know what fixes this People who have a livable income don't commit much crime Occasionally they do and there's some white-collar crime, but trust me the majority of crime is desperate people and Sometimes you can't blame them if you're hungry and you got to feed your family You res and you have no options because the education system doesn't give you any options People resort to all kinds of things that affect all of us whether you're rich or poor So this is a plan that will help the poor middle-class the rich. It doesn't discriminate It doesn't differentiate by gender or sexuality or anything This is the cutting-edge way that education should be taught and going back to the personality test not only would you Find out what people have natural affinities for using personality tests But in addition you would teach them differently not everybody learns the same way. It's been it's a fact Some people are audio learners some are visual some are kinesthetic, you know Peter Drucker talks about this and it's Book managing oneself. You have to know how you learn But if the education system is always sit at a desk listen to a lecture have a book It's already failed the majority of people because the majority of people do not learn that way And so by doing personality test you could you could separate out how people learn and this was impossible a hundred years ago It's because you might be listening go tie. That's not practical. Oh, it's practical now. We have computers We could put man on the moon. We have GPS is it we have that this iPhone here Where is my phone? Scratch that on all my phone. Yes. Oh here it is. This phone right here Is more powerful than a rocket ship was in the 1960s you telling me with all the technology We can't use computers. We can't use iPads. We can't use tablets We can't use live streaming to bring customized education This is completely False and giving up too easy and what happens is the education system has a inertia and It's just doing business with minor changes. There's been some improvement in the education system Naturally as we progressed, but it's not enough. It hasn't kept up with the pace of of Advancement in the world in other fields think how much better medicine is medicine is Indistinguishable between what would happen to you in the 1800s in the 1800s had you Been injured you might have had leeches put on you You would have had doctors who didn't wash their hands. They didn't understand germ theory I mean it was prehistoric now if you you know get a cut and you go into the hospital We understood it's completely different Now we take that the education system if you go back to a classroom in the 1800s versus today They almost indistinguishable you got student sitting there listening to a teacher for not just one two three years But decade or more You got to keep up you got to keep up. So just thought I thought I'll record that sounds like there's a crazy Fire going on back here. If you go to tylo pes.com.
