Why School Sucks!
A man by the name of Mark Twain once said: I never let my schooling interfere with my education.
It is often said that a child only educated in school is an uneducated child. What does that mean? It means that true education isn't merely learnt from a textbook and the only way to prove that someone understands something is not by exams.
Howard Gardener came up with theory of multiple intelligences: there are auditory learners, people who learn through touch, kinesthetic learners and people who learn from stories.
To create an education system based on only one type of learning is stupid and absurd. Not only it sacrifices the god given abilities of students but also damages the good of the world.
