2+2=5 Today I have watched a short video clip about education. It was kind of a short movie. The action was in a small school with only boys there. It was a math class and a teacher wrote on the board the formula "2+2=5". He looked strict onto the class and asked the students to repeat it. All they did but one brave boy raised his hand and said he is not agree, he thinks that sum 2 and 2 equals 4. The teacher became angry and forced the student no matter what to say it is 5. But the boy was headstrong and he didn't. Then the teacher called older students who were the best student in school and asked them what is the right answer. They as one said the total is 5. But the boy didn't listen them, he was confident in himself. Even when the students directed imaginary weapon onto him, he didn't gave up and therefore was shooted right in the class while other young students were watching. Teacher said his behaviour was inappropriate. After this video I thought about my experience. There were students who didn't want to follow the system in my school and college. They didn't want to skip four cells before paragraf or to draw the fields in the notebooks. Other words they didn't want to follow stupid rules, the wanted to do as they want. But teachers were angry about them and they didn't go well therefore. Students in college who were pretty smart but didn't follow the rules were expelled. And those who were average and complied all requirements graduated with good marks. It's not right. Educational institutions raise zombies who think and do all what the main man want without asking.

2+2=5

Today I watched a short video clip about education. It was kind of a short movie. The action was in a small school with only boys there. It was a math class and a teacher wrote on the board the formula "2+2=5". He looked sternly at   the class and asked the students to repeat it. All of them did but one brave boy raised his hand and said he did not agree, he thinks that sum 2 and 2 equals 4. The teacher became angry and forced the student no matter what to say it is 5. But the boy was headstrong and he didn't. Then the teacher called older students who were the best student in school and asked them what is the right answer. They as one said the total is 5. But the boy didn't listen to  them, he was confident in himself. Even when the students directed an imaginary weapon at him, he didn't give  up and therefore was shot right in the class while other young students were watching. Teacher said his behaviour was inappropriate.

After this video I thought about my experience. There were students who didn't want to follow the system in my school and college. They didn't want to skip four cells before paragraf or to draw the fields in the notebooks.In other words they didn't want to follow stupid rules, the wanted to do as they want. But teachers were angry about them and therefore they didn't do  well . Students in college who were pretty smart but didn't follow the rules were expelled. And those who were average and complied with all requirements graduated with good marks. It's not right. Educational institutions raise zombies who think and do all what the boss wants without asking.
