1	TED Talk: Boys in Education Interesting. I don't recall much of my high school history classes, mostly because I studied it outside the classroom, but I do remember one undergrad class where the professor started off the semester by saying something along the lines of "I don't particularly like the politics part, so we're just not going to bother with that bit.", which I thought was a bit disingenuous to the whole process.	/r/MensRights	15/01/11 06:27 PM
0	TED Talk: Boys in Education I agree, although I think I'd prefer to do very little, rather than nothing. Homework is silly to me and has always been. I haven't seen any advocation of an idea close to busy work or relatively constant evaluations, but maybe I'm going in with my minimalist idea of "find and idea one is interested in and seek that out, within the context of the lesson as a whole" and trying to find ways to implement that. During my undergrad I do remember enjoying classes the most that were in heavily male dom…	/r/MensRights	15/01/11 03:04 PM
3	TED Talk: Boys in Education Something that occurred to me while she was going on about the zero tolerance to violence is: how can one teach history without violence?

It's impossible to fully understand any aspect of social studies without first understanding what the catalyst for change was -- probably violence.

1	TED Talk: Boys in Education One of the more interesting ideas running through higher level education is to get children to do a task with a unspecific method. That is, if someone wants to do a sculpture of a building for a project or if someone wants to do an interpretive song and dance for the same task there is no particular reason to not grade them, so long as the idea the lesson tries to get across is apparent. Hopefully such a practice will get children more intrigued and involved in subjects they may not originally b…	/r/MensRights	15/01/11 02:28 PM
1	Boys culture: still constrained to very narrow definitions of what's acceptable to be male It strikes me as the race to conform, for someone with out the intelligence to be happy outside the "normal", they see normality as a security blanket, and anyone who doesn't act accordingly is an outsider. To delegate such power to conformity, makes them feel as if they must belong to the group in order to succeed and not be ostracized. They subscribe to a narrow definition of masculinity/femininity in order to attract a partner that the group deems acceptable, a success in other words.	/r/MensRights	18/04/09 01:38 PM

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
