Education is more than just following a set of rules and conforming to a set of expected behaviors. Unfortunately, the system we’ve created is setup for just this. Kids are expected to follow rules, memorize, and spit back answers on a test. Their success is measured by test results and often little else. I don’t see this changing, because learning to think and creatively innovate is subjective and would likely become political or mired in controversy.

A few goals I’d like to see from more effective teaching are:
- Give learners an appreciation and understanding of the subject. For example, not every student who takes accounting will become an accountant. But can they learn to understand and appreciate its value to business and society?

- Teach and equip learners to think independently about problem solving. I see too much of just learning the and memorizing the answer rather than understanding how its done.
