- I know that the teachers feel me on this one. Kids need to stop memorizing and start DOING!

Ok Gary. As a Teacher in High School - You are absolutely correct! The system is broken and needs revamped. It's hard for me to sit in meetings and listen to the same "strategies" we were doing 10 years ago. They did not work then and they do no work now!
Julie Gayheart I think he is correct. Some people say "if we don't make them memorize then they will not know cus they will never search it up" but the thing is what each kid wants to do will do what he wants to do. If he wants to be a president he will search shit like that up. If he is interested in sports he will search stuff about sports and can check news on social medias. School system is broken and it needs to be changed.
I strongly agree. The system is so messed up that most of the students find that all the time they have wasted to memorize everything is a complete waste of time. It is fact. Why should i waste 2 hours of my time learning geography when i can have all that data with a swap on my smart phone? I think the goal hear is to prepare our young generation on how to effectively use their resources rather then making a walking encyclopedia. Well said GaryV.
I love it when Gary vee talks about the educational system
Gary V Aka Living legend is completely spot on with the last point - those teachers that took time to talk to you and know what your good at and boost you up are the ones that you remember
There is a reason why I'm currently successful at my job.....zero college degree, zero traditional learning model I learned my job from working from the ground up and finding info on my own. I learned how to be one of the top programmers in my company and also learned how to be a great photographer in my own company by evolving in the business model method of learning he is mentioning. My company is full of "google search bar engineers". I am one of the least micromanaged employees in my company because I perform and don't rest on the laurels of that over priced framed cert on my wall.
Build students' self-esteem, spot on advice. Way before we shared a stage performing a two-man show I was Mike's junior high one-on-one classroom assistant. It was so frustrating when teachers brought Mike down because they couldn't get past his wheelchair. I made it my mission to help them see Mike's incredible intellect and vast possibilities.
Agreed. One obstacle that makes building self esteem so hard in the school system is that it does not cater to the individual and it does not care what each person's strengths are, so they barely have time to develop them. It's a one-size-fits-all-let's-gradate-as-many-people-as-possible solution to a much deeper societal problem.
Boom, it's the same here in the UK!
Gary, I'm just gonna go straight to the point.
I live in Cambodia, currently in grade 9th. I love making videos. I can sit 24 hours making video and also watching videos from youtube.
First of all, The school system here is so terrible, not only they tell us to memorize shits. Everything about it, is terrible. Teachers got paid for 150$/month (super low) My physic's teacher know nothing beside the questions in the book. Also, i have to copy 4000 words every single day from my textbook (it is literally rewriting my textbook onto my notebooks), I believe that, that has no single value. I asked my teachers and the teachers told me, that is to practice my handwriting, and if I ever lose my textbook, i have my notebook. " LIKE WTF ??
Also, I can spend 1$ for each subject and get great score for the month. I really hate the system but the country is so under-development.
I truly believe in myself at what i do. While i can wait till my highschool is finish but i really dont want to. I want to be successful as fast as i can and accomplish my parents dream while they still have the energy to use them. This is my biggest goal in life.
EverythingCZcams hey man i feel you im in turkey circumstances are a little better but i'd advise you to go to college - learn subjects of european universities you will have more oppurtinities. İ' m gonna graduate highschool next year so when you graduate you can come to turkey and we will work together if you re good :)
hey man! I AM SO SUPRISED that you are Cambodian and me too. I love doing what are you doing too. so Can i know you??? How can i contact you? Its time to make a better life. thanks you.
Jum reap sew bong
EverythingCZcams hey, I know this comment is hella old but how are you? I'm Cambodian but I live in America.
Yo Gary. Shout out for hitting the weights. Looking back at this video and comparing it to now, it shows how much you’ve come to value a healthy life style. Thanks for this video!!
I think school should be a place where we explore our interests without having to be graded on it..
being graded first of all is dumb.
College is no different, is it? Even my Genetics professor has similar views as shown here. The whole "Walking Encyclopedia" thing is obsolete. It means nothing anymore. It's a matter of what we can DO. NOT a matter of memorization. I learned more from my previous job at Wal-Mart in the three years (2016-2019) than I learned in school.
I try to learn the facts of numerous thing on MY OWN TIME, because that is for ME. Not my job. You know?
I'm a teacher and I couldn't love this more.
I am in 11th grade and I often talk to my teachers about the education system. They all agree that it is bullshit. Yet they still have to play the game...
They don't. They don't have to play it all all. They can stop.
Agreed thanks Gary for this amazing content.
Love that you are stating this. Check out democratic education. I have 6 kids in democratic school. They are happy and learning! It's the way to go!
He said this 6 years ago! This is the truth
So we need more "DO-Mode"-People that build new "Education-Houses" like Sal Khan!
5 years later and nothing has changed
2:18 exactly......👏👏
And I try to explain this to my mother or my parents friends and they all think Im a bum. Im like, just give me a year and Ill fucking show you (already 4 months out of college and accomplishing my goals, absorbing updated content and learning to adapt in this everchanging world).
The truth is that by the time people finish their first year in college,the whole industry has been reinvented and they blindly follow through the next 3 years of useless, outdated content. It takes so much time to restructure school that you are most likely learning things you will hardly apply later on. Modern institutes and online education are much different and likely to provide relevant information. But traditional schools are so rigid I dont see them changing anytime soon at least here in argentina
Agreed!!!
#Amen! As always well said bro.
P.S. I emailed you about how I think I have mapped ROI for digital marketing.
Agreed
It’s such a big problem.
Some of these ADHD kids are actually really smart kids who realize that a lot of what they’re memorizing is worthless in the sense that they can’t use it to create value for themselves.
These kids are not inspired to memorize and regurgitate facts because they just don’t see the point, they end up with poor grades or even worse forget school all together.
There needs to be more of an emphasis on teaching kids the application of the information they’re acquiring so that they develop a quick and real understanding of how education adds value to their lives.
100%true. I teach English
I appreciate what you said it do damn true
If one does not hold vast tracts of information in one's head all at once, one cannot find the connections and draw the conclusions that such a vast wealth of knowledge affords. Only being able to look up a few names and dates will not make one intelligent or effective. Human beings cannot use their reason in a vacuum. They must reason from propositions, and the more points of contact one has with the world around them, the greater the power of deduction.
There is a strange irony in criticizing learned knowledge. Those who have attained to such a degree of knowledge understand its power and would not criticize it; those who criticize are the one's who cannot see -- they criticize what they cannot understand, they criticize because they do not understand.
yo you are deep...
In India we suffer a lot
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
We all say the education system is fucked up but do we do anything about it? Or is this the kind of subject where the education system is hearing us and isn't doing anything?
Victor Mendoza oh they hear us. they just don't want to change, they want to hold 15 year olds like me back that have talents in things other than math and social studies.
awesome! So many teachers don't do their job good because they are not motivated and system fkn sucks donkey ass!
"... you dropped 150k on a fucking education you could have gotten for a dollar-fifty in late charges at the public library."
SuckMyDax
your name...
I love the idea of capitalism, the winner get to keep what they win. I wish here in europe we were as capitalistic as americans
Indian education system is the worst!
Karel Donk Once again.
Worse here in India because of reservation
Why just blame and give excuses. Tell what problem you faced because of reservation?
P.s im a higher caste Indian and wont get reservations too
School is a waste of time,energy and effort, money,anyways.....
This is why I fucking hate Google. We are in a day of age where the school system is complete bullshit and everything you can ever know, you can ever think of, you can Google it. It sickens me because people today are now even too lazy to think about something that they can just Google "is the sky blue?" and they get a bunch of answers. While I do admit information smart is yesterday's news, I wish people would actually think for themselves instead of having to do a Google search.
I don't get what you're trying to say. Do you expect people to come up with their own answer to why the sky is blue rather than googling it?
yet thats the way it just is. fighting against it would bring you nothing, but collaborating with the facts of the life can bring you benefits. welcome to the real world.
p.s. I have a PhD, and it took me 10 years of university education to realize this. It hurts me, but I am glad to have realized it.
I feel bad for Gary, just spouting off with great passion, but no substance. Disappointing.
You must not have watched the whole video...
I did watch the whole video. The idea that someone with know educational training, no educational administrative experience or training is going to spout off and tell us what should be done is absurd. I do not know anything about say, lawn care. But, I think I should be heard as an expert on the maintenance of the greens at Augusta. Just because you are passionate about a topic, or in Garys case, life in general, does not mean you are right. In this case, Gary is wrong. Just because he has a microphone, and an audience, does not mean he should answer questions about topics he is not an expert at.
What do you think he is wrong about?
The idea that we should pay teachers based on some sort of capatialist model is absurd. That we should treat K-12 schools like business schools is absurd as well. Further, he lacks expertise to be seen as an expert. In this regard, Gary is just another guy in the bar talking smart about whatever is on television. Experts are experts for a reason.
Dino Corvino "The idea that someone with know educational training" stopped reading after that line.
