PLN 21

I watched RSA Animate-Changing Education Paradigms, by RSA, and it told about all the problems and epidemics of education.  It explained the background for why and how the public education system was founded, and discussed the many ways and reasons why this system is no longer relevant, and requires an overhaul.  This matters to me because I am a student in the public school system, and if education was made more relevant to our current society, it might change my life.  This matters to education because if everyone thinks the same, never updating values to current standards of living, then people aren't getting better, they are staying the same while education deteriorates because it isn't keeping up either, and the human race can't progress. This matters to the world because if the whole education system in America changes and the world is linked together, then our global society is going to have to make changes and the whole economical situation might and should change for the better. Education is crucial to progress, and it will create change if we repair the way we are doing it.
