come on, nobody is a polymath.[1]

There is some really boring stuff to slog through on the journey of a formal education.

In school, people tend to choose subjects they are fascinated with, to the detriment of the other subjects.

I think some subjects like history either benefit from actual life experience, or need some additional storytelling to appreciante.

we really don't need the "wooden straightback chairs in schoolrooms" mentality

gamification might smack of spoonfeeding, but it also might allow a much richer learning experience too.
