Our understanding of the world is changing all the time. Therefore education should be changing all the time.
What I think I see is instead of education being replaced... I see further layers of knowledge being added on like an onion.
It is easier to avoid challenging the status quo and to simply bolt on new knowledge.
The example that comes to mind is in science: As scientific understanding progresses it is common to hear a history of how we came to this point. The story gets longer and longer until at some point, presumably, the oldest knowledge drops off.
Thinking about a flat earth just isn't relevant anymore. Thinking about classical physics.... Actually holds back our understanding.
What I'm basically saying is: out with the old and in with the new.
Anyway. Where can a truely fresh start be made in this world? Is there anywhere free of curriculum?
I'm really curious to know what fresh thinkers of our time can come up with unencumbered with out of date ideas and thinking fully on up to date understanding: -Quantum physics without classics -knowledge of maths but not language
