College professors, researchers, scientists, etc. are all hellbound scum of the loving earth. The Unabomber had it right, but there needs to be more of a systematic removal of these people involving extermination camps and trains and poo poo not just blowing up a few of them. They all need to be loaded on trains and sent to the gas chamber where they belong.

HAhahaha. This dumb gently caress never graduated high school let alone went to a college. Enjoy your poo poo life, fucko.

Apthous posted:

Learning about a wide array of subjects involves very little memorization and it is the type of knowledge you can't test. And if you can't test something you cant sell it and make money.


There are many ways of assessing learning beyond testing. Interesting how that works. I generally give only a few tests over the course of the entire school year. I get most of my data on how well students have learned the material from things other than tests. And surprisingly, my students can do pretty well after they leave my class.

But then, I don't teach college.

As far as memorization goes, I tell my students that memorizing things is generally a fairly useless skill. (We are currently studying the Periodic Table of Elements, and the question of memorizing the table always comes up.) I point out that memorizing as a skill is far, far behind being able to find information and use it. I don't want my students to memorize the Periodic Table. If they use it enough, they will naturally memorize the parts they use. I want them, instead, to be able to find the information they need and use it to determine what they need to know for the next step. By learning to use information and find patterns, they are far better prepared than if they can simply memorize stuff.
