Education Reform
Today's education system forces students to learn at the school's pace without allowing the student to study what they want. A high school education does not afford youths any level of job training, and college can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Unfortuately, homeschooling is not a realistic option for many families because of the constraints of workplace environments and social activity.
We can change the way youths are educated and build closer social bonds by engaging in group homeschooling. Together, groups of students work with tutors to study anything they want at their own encouraged pace through curiosity. Groups form based on study preference and social enjoyment. Tutors provide students with excellent educational resources and experiences, and support them in learning anything they choose to.
Students in these programs learn quickly and enjoy 'school'. By using internet and public library resources and time, students advance to exceptional levels of learning and skill and can be ready to begin advanced studies years before their conventional school counterparts, enabling them to begin social service in the work world in their late teens instead of mid twenties. Furthermore, learning never ends as curiosity takes root in their minds and learning is no longer institutionalized. Applying knowledge is part of life, not just for passing tests.
Students are given access to the internet, to subject books and journals, news and current events, jobsites and associated professionals, learn history and events in the community, absorb current events and culture, and can arrange and fundraise for any other trip or experience they choose to undertake. Students are encouraged to contact their governments, write letters and emails to professionals and industry personnel, visit offices and factories, attend conventional training seminars, study for technical licensures, and become familiar with tools, procedures, and equipment that form our society, state, and industry. This makes well rounded students and citizens.
Students measure their learning by taking prepared tests throughout every field of knowledge, so the tests are prepared for the student's curiosity, rather than students prepared for tests. While students follow their curiosity in any direction, to advance to gain their basic graduation degree, they must pass certain combinations of tests in many basic categories. However, this kind of education is focused more on building students' specialty of education and method of learning. Most students have little difficulty meeting the basic requirements of a general group homeschooling diploma.
Advancing through all optional work-study programs starting at age 16 and on-site training starting even earlier, students will be much better prepared, confident, and emotionally well equipped for anywhere in life they choose to go.
