What's so wrong with schooling?
And what are these old structures that lead to the unemployable? I think Don Ledingham's summary of Alan McCluskey from the Swiss Agency for ICT in education sums it up: The 7 Tacit Lessons Which Schools Teach Children:
Knowledge is scarce.Learning needs a specific place and specific time (lessons in classrooms).Knowledge is best learnt in disconnected little pieces (lessons).To learn you need the help of an approved expert i.e. a teacher.To learn you need to follow a path determined by a learning expert (a course of study).You need an expert to assess your progress (a teacher).You can attribute a meaningful numerical value to the value of learning (marks, grades, degrees)
