Yes, that's very relevant. I think I would have absorbed information much better in that format than in a class room. I've always done much better when shown something, rather than being told something.

GA to kramarat.

What is wrong with "cheap"? Is something no good unless one cannot afford it? Teachers Unions are the WORST thing to happen to our education system ever sans none. If a student can take an exam and pass does he/she know the material? What is wrong with a student staying at home where they can focus, be unafraid, and not have to look at another's boxer shorts?

Thanks. I didn't know a lot about teachers unions before Wisconsin...................................what a mess. They are truly an embarrassment.

I personally believe that even not correct information can be of some merit to a criticaly standing person, given enough time to decide. The problem on this is that our critical ability is often compromized and our defences fall at the moment we take a source as totally reliable based in our former experience with it. And there are plenty of entiies ready to exploit this. But when it comes to children the basic convension of my first argument collapses. The 'critical mind' of a child lucking experience is very susceptible to hidden wrong messages. So lower the age, the more serious (and dangerous) business it is to educate 'unattended' S.M.
