And It Won’t Cost You a Fortune

While Congress debates whether to forgive student loan debt or to make college free for everyone, you might want to know about the academic research that has made high school and college curriculums obsolete.

Yes, there is current research that proves what our high schools and colleges teach kids is no longer relevant in the 21st century.

And the big problem is that most people don’t know about it.

Why You Need to Be On the Cutting-Edge?

When the year 2000 rolled around, no one could have predicted exactly what that would mean for society. Even though it’s only 23 years ago, the rapid advancements in technology make it seem more like 100 years ago.

For example, in the year 2000, there was no iPhone, no Netflix, no Uber, no ChatGPT and no remote learning. The world we live in today is vastly different than the world people used to live in at the turn of the millennium.

The problem is that most people don’t stop to think about how much we need our schools to change with the modern times. So I want you to think about it right now.

What do our schools teach right now, and what should they be teaching for the future?

And before you answer the question, let me give you some important information.

Taking One Giant Leap Forward

When Neil Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the moon, he said, “this is one small step for man, but one giant leap for mankind.”

Do you believe we need to take one giant leap forward for education? Or is it ok to continue to teach the same stale-old curriculum we have been spoon feeding kids since the 1920s?

And this question is at the heart of the issue. The problem is that most people cannot see that our schools teach the same content previous generations learned, even though those generations were alive before people could watch the first television set.

This is why I decided to create my social media accounts and why I started writing on Medium. This is why I hope you will join me in this fight against the powers that run our educational system.
