All the Screens

The following 'screens' are an integral component of "Copycats, Stickybeaks and Scallywags, Our Children All" and provide an easy summary of education, past, present and future. They are not numbered the same as in the book as more information has come to light since its publication in 2023. They can be played as a stand alone slide show presentation and are an easy window to discover where we came from educationally, the highlights of the mistakes our leaders made in adopting the GERM model and a vision of where we could be as a nation if we were brave enough to challenge the status quo and Re-Form our nation's education system for the times we all now live in, the Info/Technological Revolution.

Screen 1

Every child can learn, if we just let them.

Each and every learner, when they begin their journey, is full of enthusiasm and wonder, imagination their driving force, ready to perform the impossible if given the recognition that:

“I just want to learn, please don’t stop me. Just know who I am, what I already know, where I am from and where I want to go! I just need you to answer my WHYS ! Can you help? If you answer my “Whys” I’ll some day be wise, even cleverer than I am already.”
