That’s nice. Will that diversity include conservative viewpoints? < /sarc >
I don’t respect the French enough to have bothered learning Frogspeak. Summary in English, please?
More stench from the American madrasses.
Progressive education rejects reason, abstractions, generalizations, principles, and transmission of acquired knowledge, and instead favors concretes and concrete bound mentality, looking up information when it is needed, and activities that interest the student and which allow his self expression and which help develop his social adaptability.
Pluralistic education favors an irreducible nonintegrated multiplicity of subjects, leading to no specific goal except expressing libtard propaganda, and treats all subjects of equal importance, so that no group is offended or feels left out.
Both pluralistic and progressive education of products of the libtard disintegrated mode of thought.
“Diversity 201” = “Islam is NOT a Religion of Peace. It is a Religion of Piss” (Reference: Yasar Arafag at Camp David.
“Diversity 301” = “Islam is NOT a Religion of Peace. It is a Religion of Pieces. They will blow you up.”
That’s right; get rid of all of the courses that people need to get through life and a job. We must make sure that they are educated in the “right” courses. /sarc
Help a 20 something young lady with comparing construction costs I asked her to divide the cost by total square footage, both numbers were written down.
She whipped out her Blackberry, stared at the screen for a long moment and said, “ I can’t”.
Stunned, I asked her why not.
“Because I don’t have a divide key”
“What!”
Firmly and slowly, as though talking to a slow child she repeated, “My phone app doesn’t have a divide key.”
I asked to see her phone... sure enough it had no ÷ key, it had a / key above the x key.
This from a woman with a BA and a good paying job.
Held my laughter until I was in my car.
It depends on the degree. Hillary has the fix by promising to attach a green card to foreign students getting STEM degrees.
Yet another reason to question affirmative-action people.
“En mathématiques, la transformation de Laplace est une transformation intégrale”
In mathematics, the transformation of Laplace is an integral transform . . .
You don’t want to know the rest, unless you already know it.
I was a math major and although I don't think mathematics in general should be replaced with diversity, I'm not sure it matters all that much to eliminate a requirement that every college student must take math.
A certain level of math should be required for college entrance. One additional course is not in general going to somehow make students more well rounded. An exception might be if they can come up with an interesting math survey course for non-STEM majors.
