| Education as Fate: IV |
[Aug. 1st, 2011|10:20 am] |
The problem of education cannot be solved as long as it is denied.
Social studies lack the clear rules of the game which are the advantage of natural science. There is no procedure for reform. In this primitive jungle ‘authorities’ concentrate on suppressing new points of view. But outside the campus students of pedagogy have started to think again. And there are students of psychology who are discovering again the spatial character of perception. There are neurologists who understand the absolute localization of brain functions as obsolete. There are students of design who refuse to subordinate the trends of advertising and ‘styling’. There are publishers of schoolbooks trying to escape from pedagogic commonplaces. These are the creative forces of a new society. For me there is no choice: I want to be on their side. |
