School: kids view

School : A kids view (for once)

   Realistically a kid will not usually see School as an enjoyable experience, some consider it a daily task or chore, while others consider it an everyday personal hell, with varying degrees above, below, and between. I myself consider it a daily ritual with a long forgotten purpose. the purpose of school was to EDUCATE nowadays the purpose of school has been warped to being nothing more than a meeningless series of tests to "earn" "CREDENTIALS"  or more commonly know items such as High school diplomas, wich are required for just about every decent job on the planet... or at least in the US. i dont live in any other country so i cant comment on such matters. but in my mind this system is wrong, instead of giving children preset courses that have no personal attraction with the child it should be teaching the child what the child wishes to learn. take the book The Diamond Age or, A Young Lady's Illustrated Primer one of the many key plot devices in the book the "primer" was a book, moreover an elaborate nano circuitry supercomputer that told an educational story designed to match the readers personality,through a long course of interaction with eachother. I beleive the Ideal Education System would simply teach a child what he or she wants to know, for example, say the kid wants to learn about rockets, well good tell him about rockets, then tell him about the chemistry involved with the rocket, then when he asks what chemestry is teach him about it, and so on and so forth, its as simple as that, just tell the what he wants to know
