(continue from the previous) So, I think, school never has to adjust itself to that kind of mind work. How can we provide better, more stimulating classes without getting an uncritical but emotionally simulating result? (And forgive my bad english, I'm not originally anglophone, nor I? live in an anglophone country. But I try my best to communicate my doubt)
By: ailin1986. on 27 May 12, 21:08:07
On the ADHD discussion: I really agree on the problem resulting from? the distance between stimulating non-schoolar activities (video games, internet, etc) and traditional lesson. BUT, even uploading class methods, there's an imperative that cannot be left away: learning things takes lots of work. Hard work. The advanced technologies develop advanced fun stuff that puts some brains to work but mostly, I think, they rest upon the sensitive stimulation and not intellectual effort. (lack of space)
By: WrongParadox. on 27 May 12, 09:46:07
collaboration doesn't necessarily lead to better results it can result is a mediocre mob mentality where people are 'brainstorming' but are merely giving responses that they think the other people? on the committee want or expect. Or they are there purely to get political or social advantage over their peers and others, and have an interest in making their rivals look bad.
By: soundsower1. on 27 May 12, 06:31:47
I agree on that.?
By: BritBoot. on 27 May 12, 05:23:06
True, there's misdiagnosis out there too (I meant to add that along with the over-prescribing and black market medication abuse points). However, my husband and brother would have benefited tremendously had they been diagnosed as children and not just as adults. And to? make a blanket statement that ADHD meds turn people into zombies is just irresponsible and wrong. It tough enough choosing to take that road without being pressured with misinformation like this.
By: soundsower1. on 27 May 12, 05:08:01
He didn't call ADHD a myth. He called ADHD being an epidemic a myth, which I agree on. I do believe in ADHD, and you make a valid point, but it's also? important to accept the fact that ADHD has been used as an excuse. In fact, I was almost diagnosed with ADHD when I was a kid, when the real issue was that I wasn't being challenged enough at school because I was gifted, and that I was just getting bored (Not bragging). We both agree, we're just emphasizing on different parts of the argument. :P
By: BritBoot. on 27 May 12, 04:20:28
Of course that happens too, but this just damages the reputation of ADHD and its treatment for those who really do suffer from it (and really do benefit from medication). There are so many people out there who don't even believe ADHD is a real thing and Sir Ken perpetuates that myth. He has obviously never lived in close range to an ADHD sufferer or seen? the benefits that treatment can bring.
By: BritBoot. on 27 May 12, 04:19:33
He doesn't understand that ADHD is a real affliction in most cases and that treatment (including medication) can be a positive life-changer. It should not make "zombies" out of people if prescribed correctly, quite the opposite. The media is keen to jump on cases where ADHD medication has been misused, either over-prescribed, or sold on the black? market to college students to get better results on their papers or tests.

Have? you read Youtube comments or Facebook statuses lately?
By: soundsower1. on 27 May 12, 03:54:18
this only 12? minutes out of an hour long speech. Maybe he did talk about it, I don't know. And yes, socioeconomic status is a huge ballplayer in changing education, you are right. But, like he said, that's what collaboration is for. Improvement in the education is very possible, especially if we collaborate instead of criticizing.
By: soundsower1. on 27 May 12, 03:51:20
What doesn't he understand? I guess I don't understand it either, then. I only know just as? much as he has said.
By: BritBoot. on 26 May 12, 16:38:22
Of course he was being elegant/eloquent - he's a beautiful? speaker. He just lacks understanding of ADHD.
By: kingcocomango. on 26 May 12, 10:48:37
If you think he was not being elegant, then? I presume you did not fully comprehend what was going on.
By: vesperhesperus. on 26 May 12, 03:05:06
how do you have a discussion about changing education without race or class? "adhd is (maybe) a myth", are you fucking kidding me? that's hardly the worst thing happening even if? it were true! school-to-prison pipeline, anyone? the absurdly high drop out (PUSHED out) rates? the drawings are nice but the lecture's fatuous. the most common key to success is privileged socioeconomic status! so yes, his works apply to a select few, but what about the swathes of kids not even getting that much?
By: 23456Mr1. on 25 May 12, 23:46:11
Speculating about the geniuses of kindergarteners was not the point. The point is that kindergarteners have more? potential for creativity, Schooling does make an adult know more but makes them passive.
By: 23456Mr1. on 25 May 12, 23:36:17
Public education is inefficient anyway, especially in? an era where the Internet can provide more information than low-paid teachers can ever do.
By: best496. on 25 May 12, 21:55:26
Why do we have to take English 4 times in high school to graduate? I? think we should only have to take English two times and take mathematics and science four times each. I speak English, I learned it when I was born so why should I have to take it so much in high school?
By: universalsailor. on 25 May 12, 16:10:26
Just what we need, another buzz word ... You limit? kids by not making them fluent in the three Rs. Teach a child to read and express him/herself with good grammar, and make him/her numerate. There's your grounding for everything else. Perhaps the biggest need today is to teach everyone to take responsibility for their own shortcomings and then remedy them.There's way too much "it's not my fault" thinking doing the rounds.
By: drnrqsldch. on 25 May 12, 11:23:28
Is not about teaching art... is the way you teach stuff, or "limitate" the minds? of the children.
By: Ja14111948. on 25 May 12, 09:48:57
don't? forget the laziness of teachers.
By: Eoghanlebar. on 25 May 12, 06:28:35
He aint WRONG, but he doesn't really have anything useful to say. Siegfrieg Engelmann has taken education to the level of a SCIENCE with Direct Instruction (DI), and? hardly anyone knows or cares. Michel Thomas's language lessons use the same principles of design as DI to make em work 100 times more efficiently than any other language learning program out there. Engelmann and Michel Thomas both have (had) critical marketing failures, but if you want to fix education, LOOK TO THEM!
By: SDS4BO. on 24 May 12, 19:10:29
The question is not how do we fit children into a future economy, the question is, when? will we provide them examples of frugality, thriftiness, and prudence, right now? Don't worry about the children when your own government is spending itself into the toilet and leaving the burdens to the children. Worry about how you will find some repsonsible adults to take the reins back from the immature jokers in our country's administration.
By: norevelation. on 24 May 12, 08:07:57
Emotions aside, acknowledging my poor education as a reason to my financial situation is not an "everyone else's fault" mentality. I'm actually having difficulty understanding how you became of that assumption considering the inconsistencies of the connection. Oh well, I have given it more speculation? than needed.
