Our entire attitude toward education is flawed.
We spend years in primary school and then secondary school being coerced into absorbing information and hammered with the misconception that the point of learning is meeting arbitrary goals and being measured on our ability to memorize facts and formulas.
That’s bad enough...🧵

What’s worse, though, is that when we finally reach the end of that tunnel, we go through a graduation ceremony and treat it like a happy funeral for our learning period. People give speeches, and everyone reminisces about a part of their lives that is over forever. It’s a celebration of the fact that your learning is finished. May you never endure the hardship of cracking open a book ever again. 2/13
