1. The video was very intriguing, it gave us a different perspective of what the education system really is and what it stands for. Some of the main points are divergent thinking and creativity and how the education system trains us so that we are less able to fulfill these two qualities. It uncovers the reality of the education system and how things are more like a factory where we are classified more on numbers and correct answers rather than our actual mental development.
2. We all agree with the message given by the entire video. The education system is exactly like a factory on how we are all grouped by age and classified by test scores. We're so used to the way the education system runs we don't ever think to ask why it is run this way and what we could be doing differently. This presentation makes you really think about the way you learn and the way you were taught growing up. In elementary school we knew a few kids that were said to have "ADHD" and given medication to help them. This medication only took away their livelihood and made them zombie like.
3. The fact that the information in the presentation is not commonly known and heard about is something we all disagree with.
4. This video has a great impact on us all as learners. We are all so used to the system and going with the flow without asking questions, and after watching that video it actually angers me to keep going with the system and being graded unfairly.
5. The education system should definitely consider this presentation and take many notes. If teachers watch this presentation and it doesn't effect them in any way or make them want to change their teaching system or try and change the whole system, they should not be teaching.
Great comments!!
