[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't get innovators from the Curie model of education. Unless they were going to be innovators anyway.

What you do get is people who can make money working for the innovators. They will have a bare minimum of competence but they will not learn the ability to develop a solution on their own.

It's different approaches. You need both types of people to move technology forward. That's not to say that a kid who goes to Curie doesn't have the talent to be an innovator - it's just not helping them to become one.[/quote]
Innovators or just bare minimum educated, public school systems by themselves have a challenge of prepping high schoolers to continue with College education.

"In 2023, 61.4% of recent high school graduates enrolled in college in the fall. Of those enrolled, 74.6% were in four-year institutions, and 25.4% were in two-year institutions. "

Why are public schools failing to prep and motivate 38.6% of high school graduates to continue education?

So you think the 38.6% all want to be Google CEO and it’s public school that stops them? The stats only say not everyone goes to college, not that they don’t continue to learn or that they all wished they could have been CEOs. Electricians, technicians, plumbers, flight attendants, construction workers, sales reps, police officers, firefighters… actors, musicians, artists, etc. don’t need college degrees and they continue learn in their fields and can become more successful than college grads (and have less debt). Your stats only support an argument that not everyone goes to college and that’s always been true (ex, in 1975, only 50% of students went to college after HS).[/quote]
