Don’t get me wrong, learning is important, but I don’t have tons of fond memories of great learning opportunities in school.
I haven’t been in a classroom in years and so far the most lasting consequence from high school and college are the semi-weekly stress dreams where I’m desperately late for a final in a class I’ve never been in. And according to basically every other older adult, this literally never stops happening.
Real healthy education system you got there :agony-deep:
Oh god… why do I still get those? Like yo you just decided to not go to class for your final? Why would you do that?
I had a professor who told me the teacher equivalent of these dreams:
One day, towards the end of the semester, you find out there’s a course you’re supposed to have been teaching this whole time. You rush to the classroom, and all the students are there, waiting patiently. You now have a semesters worth of content to teach in one lecture.
