How We Learn Best vs. How We Are Taught In School
July 12, 2009 01:06 PM PDT
In this piece, several PSU members were interviewed about how they learn best, and about how that is different from how they are taught in school. Their answers are very insightful, and clearly show why so many students dislike school and do not find it to be very educational. This piece also offers clues as to how we can improve things. This piece was produced by Gregory Jordan-Detamore. |
Podcast SummaryOn Blast is an organizing tool for the Philadelphia Student Union. On Blast represents the needs and interests of young people. We know that mainstream media doesn’t have our interests in mind when they broadcast their news, or play commercial music. The owners of mainstream media use their content to maintain the status quo; their framework comes from a place of sexism, racism, militarization and class oppression. At On Blast, we choose subject matter that amplifies the voices of those not being heard; those who are routinely hurt and misrepresented by the dominant media. About PhiladelphiaThe Philadelphia Student Union exists to build the power of young people to demand a high quality education in the Philadelphia public school system. We are a youth-led organization and we make positive changes in the short term by learning how to organize to build power. We also work toward becoming life-long learners and leaders who can bring diverse groups of people together to address the problems that our communities face.
