The term "anti-intellectualism" became popular due to the book "Anti-intellectualism in American Life" published by American historian Fstadter in 1962, which won a Pulitzer Prize in 1964 .

When Hofstadter wrote this book, it was a reaction to the Republican rule of Eisenhower in the 1950s. At that time, from the New Deal until Nixon came to power in 1968, the United States was dominated by the Democratic Party for most of the time. Only Eisenhower's eight years were when the Republican Party entered the White House. The Eisenhower government is pro-big business and mocks the intellectuals who are full of reason as "egg heads", which is no small offense to the intellectuals who have gained power after the New Deal. In the meantime, McCarthyism has risen, and the intellectuals have been violently attacked and even persecuted.

Hofstadter used the eyes of a historian to reflect on this political counter-current, trying to clarify the origin of anti-intellectualism in the American cultural tradition that does not respect intelligence. Therefore, Huo's "anti-intellectualism" is obviously a derogatory term.

Later, the word spread to the other side of the ocean, and was seen by a group of "intellectuals" who thought they were superior. They thought it was a good way to educate the **** to become cattle, so they packaged and processed it and became a "good thing." .

"The school district's education is different from the outside world. Our purpose is not to stick to the rules, but to explore what kind of things are more suitable for our place."

Catherine explained this to Nixon.

"There is no problem in the school district... But I personally think that even if you want to promote it. It is not that simple. The resistance is very huge. In this regard, I personally suggest that you should be cautious in this plan."

Nixon was warning Catherine in good faith.

Catherine frowned. But still said: "I know how to measure."

Nixon looked at the somewhat awkward girl in front of him—well, at least it seemed like that—and he couldn't help but think of his daughter. In the increasing contact, it seemed that some feelings were sprouting, and he met his daughter. Same time.

So at this time, Nixon kindly reminded Catherine.

U.S. education is mainly provided by the government, controlled and funded by three levels of government: the federal government, the state government, and the local government (school district).

In elementary and middle schools, curriculum, funding, teaching, and other policies are determined by the locally elected school district committee.

Local school districts (non-Divano) are usually separated from other local affairs based on officials and budgets. Educational standards and standard tests are usually set by the state government.

In the U.S. Must be in school before the age of 1618. Many states now require students to be 18 years old. Some states only stipulate that they must be 14 years old. Students can enter public schools, private schools or home schools. In most public and private schools, education is divided into three levels: elementary school, junior high school and high school.

In a United Nations education index of 21 countries, the United States scored 1%, ranking first in the world.

——Nevertheless. But my family knows about my family's affairs.

In a country where half of the population does not even know where New York is on the map, would you say that the education here is successful?

In a country where even a little more computer games are considered complicated, would you say that the education here is successful?

In a country where teaching evolution is illegal, would you say that the education here is successful?

The education in the United States looks very good. But that only means private education in the United States. Public education is really not good.

Unlike most other industrialized countries, the United States does not have a national central education system. Therefore, k12 students in most areas have the opportunity to choose between free public schools and private schools.

Private schools in the United States include parish schools of religious groups, non-profit ** schools, and for-profit private schools. The fees of private schools are based on different regions and school expenses. As well as other sources of funding besides tuition, the difference is very large. E.g. Some churches provide partial subsidies to private schools for their members.

Because of this, some people of insight in the United States proposed that schools should be nationalized. Implementing national curriculum standards, they also believe that tests should be standardized, as required by the "Leave No Child Behind Act (t.

But in fact, more than 70% of students in the United States have insufficient financial resources to pay all tuition fees and need to obtain student loans and scholarships from universities, the federal government or private institutions.

In public schools, these are borne by the government and included in the budget, but not every local government likes to spend money on it. What's more, these governments naturally represent the interests of the class, so these public education Saying it is "education" rather than saying it is "pig raising", this will save them a lot of budget.

In private schools, this is not the case. Private schools in the United States are generally very good. High tuition fees naturally widen the class gap. These are places where the future ruling class will be cultivated, and education will naturally be better.

Pigs are happy, so they don’t know how to resist. So, the “elites” in other places were attracted by this exquisite pig raising method, so they changed to a different method, called “quality education”, and then started A happy pig raising journey.

But most people don’t know that this kind of education can only be carried on by rich people. Learning piano and painting are all things rich people can play. Most people probably want to buy a good piano. It’s not easy. thing.

This kind of education is actually anti-intellectual education for those who have no money. It makes everyone think that not studying is good, that "burden reduction" is necessary, and that examinations are "every evil".

But they don't know, they are fooled by education, but they don't know that the roots of the poor are already broken, and the differences in class are already fully manifested at this time.

In addition, the better pig raising is the third brother.

"Asan has a population of 100 million" is not just a joke, because this is where 100 million elites lead one billion livestock...

Catherine’s education model is not the kind of anti-intellectual education in public schools, but forcing students to study and read, like driving a duck...

This kind of education, let alone being rejected by the capitalists, may have strong reactions to those parents who are also affected by anti-intellectualism. The United States is the most successful country in brainwashing education in the world, even if it is The oppressor will stand up spontaneously to protect the interests of the exploiter.

"Is the education at Ark University the same?"

Nixon asked.

"No, Ark University only has classes in the morning and no classes in the afternoon. I think students should master the basic knowledge in the middle school stage, but at the university, what they need is to learn in practice."

It's like Vladimir did it.

"...Moreover, I think it would be a better choice for college students to do experiments with the professor, or to experience the world by themselves."

To put it bluntly, this is an experimental field. You can put any new technology and new ideas here to try it out.

Take the valid ones and cancel the invalid ones. That's how it is.

Catherine's ideas and ideas are very good in Catherine's view, but if this kind of education is ineffective, after Ark University, this kind of education model will be cancelled.

Catherine's educational model is based on Catherine's own ideas and reference to some conditions in the United States itself.

There are two main forms of undergraduate courses in the United States. One is a lecture-based large class. Hundreds of students sit in a large classroom. Most of the class forms are lectures by professors and listening by students, with very few classroom discussions. The other is a discussion-oriented small class. There are only dozens of students in each class. Students have many opportunities to ask questions and have a high level of participation in the class.

Generally, large classes are also equipped with small discussion and Q&A classes for more than a dozen people each week, and all students will be assigned to Q&A classes in different time periods. Discussion and Q&A classes are generally presided over by course assistants, who are mostly graduate students or doctoral students. In the discussion class, students can discuss what they have learned and answer questions, so many students choose to participate in the discussion class on the eve of handing in their homework.

And Catherine's Ark University also took this form.

After Catherine explained it again, Nixon understood.

"Although we hire professors and PhDs, sometimes they are their assistants. But our school district is a bit special. The students in the school district are some of the better talents, so professors sometimes I'm happy to come to class-pick someone for myself by the way..."

Speaking of it, there is another reason that the school district’s budget is sufficient, so professors often don’t have to rush to do experiments as they do in other places, so they can free up more time for classes.

Of course, if it is really important research ~lightnovelpub.net~ they will let their assistants pass.

Professors do research first-class, but not necessarily first-class class. Their assistants may be more suitable for class. But Catherine’s method, in the afternoon, is basically to send these students to accompany their tutors to do research, etc., through precepts and deeds, the effect is certainly good.

In the morning learning process, it is also an opportunity for students to communicate with each other and communicate with teachers.

Students and professors can use this opportunity to answer questions and have a deeper understanding of what they are learning, which is also good.

"I already have a rough idea of ​​tomorrow's itinerary..."

He nodded.

Three shifts.

I have a stomachache and a bad mood, please do not check in, thank you...
