Anyone can fake smart maths. Now faking smart glass, that takes skill.
I blame this post for the fact that I just laughed really loud.Anyone can fake smart maths. Now faking smart glass, that takes skill.
Things I've learnt about on the internet include feminism, anti-racisim, equality, not to be homophobic, why we should care for people, etc. Things I've learnt inside school? What the product of x=738-345 is.Haha, no ideaSometimes you pick up more out of school than in

I still feel that the maths that is taught in secondary school is, as a whole, pointless. In day to day real life I will never need to know how fast a fictional train travels and meets a second fictional train.
I was trying to demonstrate how tired of an argument it is (especially with regards to math since people seem to be proud of being bad at math for some reason), but I'll do anything to make you stabbyAre we really going into the "usefulness in life" as a marker of whether a subject should be taught?
Because as an academic, I should warn you all that this topic makes me rather...stabby.
I'm just saying they could include more useful subjects along with the ones we already have, even though I realise that's kind of ridiculous of me to say.Are we really going into the "usefulness in life" as a marker of whether a subject should be taught?

I know almost nothing of the economy, getting a job and money, and my school doesn't have a class for that. Unless university does, I guess.Such as?
The Great Gatsby has came up in everyday life exactly two times more than parabolas.Oh, so you use parts of speech, classic literature, history and the plethora of other non-math topics that they teach in schools in day to day life then?

I know history, I just know the useless stuff that gives me childish views on politics and unjustified reasons for my opinions. I know the kinda history that's pretty much redundant in every aspect.Every political debate on this website is proof enough for how most people don't know enough history, and why that's a shame.

13. Mm, I've heard from my sister that the actual good stuff in both history and R.E comes in later on. But that's only if we take it as one of our options, isn't it?But aren't you 13 or 14? History only really gets fun in the later parts of secondary school and university, when you start analyzing accounts of history themselves and, yes, how much of what we learn in the earlier grades is propaganda one way or the other.
Aw c'mon, we're not that bad, I swear!Lol 13 year olds.
