Coming across old digital records and documents, I have decided to reproduce many of them in my blog. This one is a report for a simple project I carried out with a classmate as an undergraduate student at Grinnell College from 1990 to 1994. It was a math project conducted for the Statistics class I was taking at the time.
Coming across old digital records and documents, I have decided to reproduce many of them in my blog. This one is a paper I wrote as an undergraduate student at Grinnell College from 1990 to 1994. It's about how SAT is biased against women.
In 2009-10, when data for 2011 Census Report was collected, children in the last year of kindergarten, five-year olds, numbered 661K. The group completed their schooling -- grade 12 -- in 2022. Less than 10% made it through!
This blog looks how the totally corrupt and flawed education system does that and the consequence of that for a vast majority of the population.
Nepali education system is so screwed up, schooling does NOT prepare you adequately for externally assessed terminal examinations. Furthermore, each stage of schooling does NOT prepare you for the stage that follow either. Instead, it requires that you get outside help to prepare yourself and continue your academic career!
What's the point of such an education system?!
Homo Sapiens, our species, is responsible for the 1000x faster extinction rate of other species on this planet and, apparently, has put us on the path to the 6th mass extinction event.
So, my question to you is, what is the argument for our continued survival on this planet?! For whom?! For what?!
When it comes to identity, most formal and informal education system around the world focus on and elevate the person's nationality, religion, class, sex/gender, official position/profession, age, race, caste, sexuality etc. What is most important, however, is to teach a person to think of themself as a human being first and to value humanity above all.
