Schools of the Future
By MinaWe need better schools, schools that prepare kids for their lives in the unknown.
A school should…
- Be a place where kids can come to learn because they want to.
- Be a place where kids can come to interact with other kids and learn from eachother.
- Allow kids to develop their skills and passions.
- Have teachers who are able to help kids find their skills and passions.
- Be a place to try new things.
- Be a place where kids are not afraid to make mistakes.
- Be a place where a kid can start making a difference in the world.
- Be mostly run by kids.
A school should not…
- Cause stress.
- Be a place where kids are bullied.
- Be the center of a kid’s life. (You go to elementary school to learn how to get through highschool, which is to learn how to get a job and/or go to university, and you work, work, work and then you die. Any questions?)
- Prevent kids from reaching their full potential in any way.
- Make learning into a chore, and teach kids to hate it.
