“S” WORD BS
This has got to be the dumbest socialization article I’ve seen yet. And it’s not even about homeschooling.
How can students socialize with classmates and teachers if they’re at home taking all their courses on the computer?
Won’t online learning turn them into introverted teenagers who won’t be able to relate with “normal” people once they get to college or find a job?
Aren’t students going to miss out on what every education expert says is the key component of the high school experience — experiencing high school?
I think maybe the reporter spent a little bit too much time socializing in J-school.

High school — the most artificial environment devised by mankind since the creation of penitentiaries after the Civil War. Where else can a person spend most of their day, most of the year, in the company of those mostly their own age? The human warehouse is designed to create whiney, easily bored consumers who will be good servants of the state. Having them learn from the keyboard would be a major advancement over the g-school. |
