Education
"Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten"(Skinner,B.F.). What i beleive that qoute means is that it doesn't matter if you forget dates that you learned in history or if you forgot the formula to a math problem. The point of it all is that you learn how to problem solve and that you know the general idea of what the class is trying to teach you. No one remembers everything they learned in school but what people take away from school is much more important. They learn how to become critical thinkers and how to use logic and common sence better. I also think that public schools are the best for kids because it lets them deal with their peers and lets the kids learn how to interact with them properly. School is much more than papers and dates and formulas its about growing up and knowing how to think clearly and inteligently.
