Re: The Exisitng Educational System

[Anonymous]

Hey folks….I kinda would like to bring this back to the original thread thought. Not slagging anybody or their comments but…… but I am interested in what and if anything…..anybody is working towards, in the the way of modifying the core curriculum of public and high school systems to be less directed toward the non-linear thinking folks.

Again I see so many bright people who struggled with the existing education system and then flourished in the university system which a little more liberal or was??? The present K>12 curriculum is so slanted towards linear thought and testing, that folks whose brain works like ours does…. have a real hard time, with class and testing.

I fear that if core educational curriculum is not put to task to recognize there is more than one mode of brain function… that the”insider” “outsider” phenomenon will never end. An education system that recognizes and nurtures the visionary thought process would better serve than medication, counseling (after the fact) and learning different skills to adapt to the linear world.

People whose brain process(s) are different (ADD) are by no means dumb, slow, or lazy they different…. and for the most part highly intelligent. A lot of the people who MAKE A DIFFERENCE……change the world are the ADD types. But yet…we can’t seem to get anybody in the institutional world to accept and adapt the system to take advantage of our gift.

So again I ask is there anybody or any organization out there that has that focus???? Any group organized to meet that end!!! If so would you please share how contact them.

Dr. J…you know anybody who is focused on this effort????

thanks all….
