Totally Agreeable !

Can you imagine one being elected President ?

It might go something like this :-

President :- ” Who is on the phone for me ? ”

Secretary :- ” Yassar ! ”

President :- ” I didn’ t ask you a ‘yes or no’ question ! ”

And if this same person wrote a letter to the United Nations saying that war is inevitable , it could read :-

Wore ! …. as in vegetable !

Young people often have been given the belief that being somewhat proficient is all they need; we do not need to know how to spell, we have spell check; hand writing is a thing of the past, we have the computer and so on.

However, looking at the bigger picture, education as a whole has become disconnected from what people really need in life.

We waste to much time on non-academics, have far to few hands on learning opportunities, like internships, and apprenticeships for young people to learn needed skills.

As for the future a suggestion would be that education should focus much more on math, reading, and writing; then allow high schools to specialize courses in different area’s, like technical, business, computer/robotics, health care/medical, general (for college the bound) etc.

Young people would than have a choice in attending schools that will teach them what they need to learn for the jobs. or career of their choice.

Businesses should join hands with these schools, and give guidance to them as to what is needed for these jobs, and provide intern/apprenticeships to the students in order for them to get both the theoretical, and practical knowledge they require to be success full.

Colleges, and Universities would continue being the places of higher learning for those who desire such.

However, I place much of the blame on teachers. I learned a few basic grammar rules in late high that I should have known in junior high.

The point of language is COMMUNICATION. If we can understand what they’re saying, then it doesn’t matter if the put the “I” first or the “E” first.

You understand what they are saying, and that is the entire purpose of language. I do agree that when they do things that make it HARDER to understand, it makes it a little scary.

Now that is hard to understand.

THAT is defeating the point of language.

But just writing shorthand, is perfectly acceptable.

hey how ru?

More efficient, less time, a lot better.

One thing that does concern me though is how little people of all ages know about geography. People can’t find their own country on a globe!

That is the truth! Whoever puts thumbs down is just wants to hide from it! Parents need to teach their children right!
