Marine and the Hippie 220501 S02E11- Is Education a Right or a Privilege

The Marine and the Hippie

In this dialogue, we the discuss systemic failure of the current education system which insists that there is really only one possible path to success for students, and calls those who do not fit into that mold "failures." Much of the problem with students is that their home environment is not conducive to academic success under any circumstances, but part of the problem is that the student doesn't learn in the environment provided for them. In many cases the teaching models are entirely inappropriate for the student's natural aptitude. A systemic reform to education would allow the system to discover the student's natural aptitude and fit an education program to that aptitude to give that student the best chance to succeed along their own natural skill sets rather than imposing the needs of capital and society onto the student. Only through systemic reform can we possible save our kids.
