The Dream of Factory Education

The idea is that kids are like parts in a car. So you put them all together and then you push them through a system, like a machine,. And then what comes out on the other side is a bunch of people who are exactly the same. Well, that's the mentality of our education system which started back in the industrial revolution around 1900. We're still using that same mindset - it's so terrible because we're not the same. Children are not equal. They're not machines. Each one has their own kind of magical strengths and curiosities," he says.
