LEARNING HOW TO LEARN HOW TO LEARN
Documenting The Transition From Old-Style Linear Lesson Planning
To New-Style Hypertext Lesson Planning, Including A Design For Tests That
Grade Themselves
[A Work In Progress.....]
The Why
The Reasons Why An Overhaul Of
Our Way Of Teaching Is Due:
Our National Debtload Is Out-of-Control, And Bloated, And Stretching Bigger And Bigger. It Can Never Collapse---They Just Charge It To Our Descendants---Due To Problems We Are Failing To Face, Such As
1. Medicare In The Last Year Of Life
For Failing To Overrule Dominance By Pharmaceutical Company Brainwashing Of Medical Doctors
Also For Failing To Allow Assisted Suicide For The Terminally Ill In Intractable Pain
Update: already, federal court decisions in several states have corrected this problem.
2. Public Welfare As A Perpetual Income ;
For Failure To Make It Easy To Find Work
For Failing To Teach Self-Sufficiency
People Need Something Constructive To Do
3. Billions Wasted On The Defense Budget
For Failure To Use Both Sides Of Our Brain To Reach Reasonable Solutions
For Failure To Change The System To Protect The People's Treasury
Against
Waste By LeftBrained Politicians
4. More And More Prisons & Prison Guards:
Legions Of MINUS EARNERS, Draining Money Out Of The Treasury
For Failure To Make It Easy To Find Work On A Short Notice
For Failure To Stop The Phony War On Drugs
People Need Something Constructive To Do
5. More And More Pseudo-Agencies Developed To Treat The After- Effects Of Unemployment
Ever-Increasing Legions Of MINUS EARNERS, Draining Money Out Of The Treasury
For Failure To Make It Easy To Find Work On A Short Notice
People Need Something Constructive To Do
For Failing To Teach Self-Sufficiency
6. Starvation And Strangling Of School & College Budgets
By Shortsighted Left-Brained Politicians
People Need Something Constructive To Do
7. Increasingly irritable militias running out of patience with status quo leaders.
The Enemy
Anyone Who Advises You Not To Trust Your Own RightBrain Thoughts.
Stop Listening To Them.
The Solution:
Empower Teachers To Create Long-Distance Learning Courses That Empower Students To Be Integrated Thinkers
Long-Distance Learning, And Why We Should Facilitate It
Why Hypertext Is Better Than Linear
Why Self-Directed Learning
Why Both Sides Of The Brain Makes Learning Easier
Why Involve The "Wisdom Of The Heart" In Learning
Create An Expectation Of Lifelong Learning To Adapt To Change
Get As Many As Possible Learning Something New
Long-Distance Learning, And Why We Should Facilitate It
1. There Will Never Be Enough Teachers, Enough Classrooms For All The People Who Need To Learn New Things.
2. Too Many People Need Something Constructive To Do, For Available Classrooms.
3. Learning More Self-Sufficiency Lightens Welfare Debt Load & Creates More Plus Earners.
4. It Can Be An Alternative When Students Move, Become Sick, Or Other Reasons For Dropping Out.
5. It Can Accommodate Students For Whom The School Room Experience Is Stressful, Or Who For Other Reasons, Prefer HomeSchooling.
6. With The New "Teacher" Being The Resources On The InterNet, Why Limit Ourselves To The Classroom Model?
7. Star Teachers Can Expand Their Influence. Why Shouldn't Everyone Be Able To Learn From The Best Teachers That There Are?
8. The Things That Teachers Learn From Preparing Hypertext Lesson Plans Will Enrich All Their Teaching.
Why Hypertext Is Better Than Linear
Why Hypertext Lesson Plans Are Higher Quality Than Linear Lesson Plans, (Even For The Classroom Attendance Model)
Students can follow their most intense train of thought.
Mental orderliness is greater with hypertext non-linear lessons, and self-directedness.
Learning is easier if the student stays interested---paying attention.
The teacher is better prepared to take side tours to follow students' focus.
The same class room environment can be stimulating to many categories of learning speeds.
Slow learners won't feel left behind.
The mentally gifted can find enough extra topics to provide a challenge.
Teaching how to learn how to learn easier has priority over teaching them what to learn.
Hypertext lends itself to eventual long-distance learning courses and CD-ROMs.
Teachers can continue to earn after retirement, from royalties on their CD-ROM courses.
