and the two extremes are "do nothing, it's fine" or "copy Asia, and have kids live at school 12 hours/day"
ok Max, grades in Elementary School
do they matter?
My careers teacher in high school let me watch the urealms cartoon and play tetris because I fished the work in 5 minutes
I remember being graded on all sorts of retarded categories
like "teamwork"
or "creativity"
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 or "creativity"
they did grade us on like, uhh i forgot the word
this is kind of what we had
Pika says this is similar to what he had
5th grade
btw
kinetic learning?
or do you mean
spatial reasoning
but anyway, Elementary school for me was a lot of non-academic work
because... it's elementary school
Mine was a mix, but elementary school is just kind of a filter to make sure you have basic human skills
we had graded work
but the grades didn't mean anything
getting a 100 on a memorization test, wasn't about getting the 100
it was teaching kids a bunch of different techniques, and seeing which ones worked for everyone
Same, because elementary is more habit building
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 getting a 100 on a memorization test, wasn't about getting the 100 it was teaching kids a bunch of different techniques, and seeing which ones worked for everyone
yeah it was nothing like this for me
note taking was the same way, we'd learn a bunch of different systems, and aply them to projects
so lots of take home exercises
none of them really hard
but the grades on the projects were just supposed to be reflective of how well we were performing, to give us an "objective" metric to develop against
we had almost no busy work
we'd get free time on laptops or whatever
you had chromebooks Max
I saw them
We never had chromebooks
