This is why I had no sympathy for teachers that lost their jobs over vaccine mandates. They are supposed to be teaching "logical analysis" and "deductive reasoning" but weren't able to do it themselves. We are better off without them.
I have been in a support role where I was working with university students who didn't understand that assignments are not just about xxx subject, but are actually about learning how to find, analyse, understand and apply information. Their tutors had failed to show them that basic element of their reason for being.
Quote:There are many lessons to be learned here, but perhaps the most damning of them is the umpteenth revelation that our education systems have failed to adequately prepare somewhere in the region of 30% of the population for a life that requires logical analysis, deductive reasoning and adulting. As a result, the blatant spreading of lies and disinformation for profit is viewed as a legitimate “side” in the “both-sides-ism” philosophy. This would all be hilarious, if it wasn’t so tragic.
