Yeah we also have the smartest people on Earth working here too. Go down to the IAS or Princeton and talk to some of our premiere mathematicians or physicists.

You can also look at our top high school students and see how they do on the math olympiad and what kinds of projects they are into. Many of these kids are doing research at the high school level. Chit, I teach Asian kids from the bay area online who wipe the floor with me. I have taught a 6th grader who is learning precalculus. Let that sink in.

America has a lot of idiots, but we also have a lot of brilliant people too.

If you think any of those people could figure out how to vote, let alone want to vote in the first place, then you are as dumb as they are

Yea but you have boomers like that Sillie guy who think his kids went to the same educational system. We just had 2 years of complete destruction of education and kids ability to learn.

It's pure chaos. These kids legit have room temperature IQ and it isn't even their fault.

IQ is mostly innate.

And while covid was bad, the smart kids are doing fine. And honestly, they are all that matters. The rest of you are doomed to be worker slaves. You don't even know you can vote yourselves a slightly better life. But the goal of education is really to find the gifted people and give them what they need. Nobody else really matters tbh.

Sad in many Democrat run cities, education testing results can be horrendous. The Democrats don't appear to care though about how poorly students perform in school.

Conservative cities on the other hand tend to see students performing well.

One write up on this concerning black students. Black students in Democrat run cities often perform poorly. In GOP led cities black students tend to perform well ~

"Progressive Cities and Black Education"

http://walterewilliams.com/progressi...ack-education/

excerpt:

A recent report by Chris Stewart has shed new light on some of the educational problems faced by black youth. The report is titled “The Secret Shame: How America’s Most Progressive Cities Betray Their Commitment to Educational Opportunity for All.” Stewart is a self-described liberal and CEO of Brightbeam, a nonprofit network of education activists who want to hold progressive political leaders accountable.

The report asks, “So how do we explain outstandingly poor educational results for minority children in San Francisco — which also happens to be one of the wealthiest cities in the country?” “The Secret Shame” reports that progressive cities, on average, have black/white achievement gaps in math and reading that are 15 and 13 percentage points higher than in conservative cities. For example, in San Francisco, 70% of white students are proficient in math; for black students it’s 12% — a 58-point gap. In Washington, D.C., 83% of white students scored proficient in reading compared to 23% of black students — a 60-point gap.

Yet, three of the 12 conservative cities researchers looked at — Virginia Beach, Anaheim and Fort Worth — have effectively closed or even erased the gap in at least one of the academic categories studied, achieving a gap of zero or one. “The politically conservative Oklahoma City has even turned the tables on our typical thinking about race-based gaps,” says Stewart. Black students in Oklahoma City even have higher high school graduation rates than white students.

Had the “Secret Shame” study analyzed other cities, it would have found that educational outcomes for most black youngsters is a national disgrace. As of 2016, in Philadelphia, only 19% of eighth-graders scored proficient in math, and 16% were proficient in reading. In Detroit, only 4% of its eighth-graders scored proficient in math, and 7% were proficient in reading. In 2016, in 13 of Baltimore’s 39 high schools, not a single student scored proficient on the state’s math exam. In six other high schools, only 1% tested proficient in math. Only 15% of Baltimore students passed the state’s English test.

National Assessment of Education Progress tests (also called the Nation’s Report Card) give further testament to the tragedy. In Philadelphia, 47% of its students scored below basic in math and 42% scored below basic in reading. In Baltimore, it was, respectively, 59% and 49%. In Detroit, 73% scored below basic in math and 56% in reading. Below basic means that a student is unable to demonstrate even partial mastery of knowledge and skills fundamental for proficient work at his or her grade level.

Then there’s gross fraud practiced by the education establishment. High school graduation rates for black students range from a high of 84% in Texas to a low of 57% in Nevada and Oregon. However, according to ACT data, the percentage of black students judged to be college-ready in English, math, reading and science ranges from 17% in Massachusetts to only 3% in Mississippi. One concrete example of this fraud is the fact that Baltimore’s Frederick Douglass High School has a graduation rate of 70% while not a single student tested proficient in mathematics and only 3% did so in reading.

“The Secret Shame” report didn’t say why the black/white achievement gap was smaller in conservative cities compared to their progressive counterparts. But permit me to make a suggestion. An Education Week article reported that in the 2015-16 school year, “5.8% of the nation’s 3.8 million teachers were physically attacked by a student.” The Justice Department’s Bureau of Justice Statistics and the Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics show that in the 2011-12 academic year, there were a record 209,800 primary- and secondary-school teachers who reported being physically attacked by a student. A National Center for Education Statistics study found that 18% of the nation’s schools accounted for 75% of the reported incidents of violence, and 6.6% accounted for half of all reported incidents. These are schools with predominantly black student populations. My guess is that part of the reasons black academic achievement is greater in conservative cities is that schools are less tolerant of crime whereas schools in progressive cities make excuses.

It's honestly not the schools. It's the parents and also just dumb kids. You can learn practically any topic you want online these days. And most of the learning for kids happens at home, not school. You have a lot of kids not doing homework. It's not the schools. Everyone acts like schools aren't doing enough.

We fund public education really well. Per capita spending by the US is insane. We get nowhere because America has worthless parents. We'd do better if we had parenting classes or something. But honestly, the hedonism of parents and the lack of family enforcement of things like homework causes this.

Everyone has special snowflake syndrome. Sorry, your kid is an idiot. And you should probably beat your kids until they do their homework. You can blame the teachers all you want, but they can't fix your trash genes or poor parenting.

Am i wrong tho?

Why waste effort teaching the masses stuff when all they do is some grunt work? They get zero out of it and do nothing with it. It's really just important to find the smart kids and make sure we use them. Otherwise, it's literally just money pissed away.

Everyone blames our system, teachers etc. It's not that. It's just dumb kids and chitty parents.

Gen Z doesn't understand file systems.

Entire generation grows up with technology, babysat by Youtube and Siri, but their stupid asses can't comprehend the idea of where they saved a file. They have phones that will complete their sentences for them, proper spelling and grammar included, but they still manage to speak and write English worse than foreigners living in the middle of nowhere with barely any internet.

There is always going to be a segment of the population that is lagging behind, but Gen Z is the first giant leap towards idiocracy. It's only going to get worse as parents and teachers/professors of these newer generations are more concerned about which of the 87+ genders they can sort their kids under or how to dress like biggest twat over being functional humans.

How can they cheat? I'm actively teaching them and making up the problems and asking them to work it out and explain their thinking constantly. There is no time to cheat. They could cheat on the homeworks I give them, but the entire point of that is to practice. No, they don't cheat. They are extremely intelligent and hard working students. It's actually amazing how smart they are. It's also insane how they see where I am going with chit and always have a thousand questions anticipating the next thing.
