Why the choice of two is the best thing in education, design and the world

Geniuses are of two types: those who discover new forms, and those who improve existing ones. The whole history of mankind is a history of ergonomic improvements: then China rebuilds itself overnight, then Japan will socialize itself in the morning, then the United States will shelter a genius at noon so that he can realize his vision.



But there are still no clear standards in the world of how everything should happen in education: tests (for example, the same school exam and student state examinations) assumed the function of verification and qualification, which was a huge cognitive mistake on the way of implementing the doctrine of the permissiveness of the experiment, which has dragged on for 500 years already. Tests are not a means of checking what exists, tests are a means of remembering what has not yet formed.



Any educational process is too prolonged because it is static: it is like a swamp, there is no movement in it, while the brain dries up without movement. Tests should be at the center of the educational process, even more: they should dilute the already existing conventions: tests should have dynamics in them. Memorization is not immobilized, memorization is like life, it is the most active natural process.



In addition, the tests established a dogma for infallibility: the closer to the waterline of success the result, the more people tend to see a genius in the examiner: but this is also not so. The waterline of success is a value that depends on several factors: displacement is meaningless if the ship is aground. Some people are designed in such a way that without huge goals they are simply not ready to collect their thoughts and stop giving themselves the freedom to make mistakes.



Tests must be error-prone. And mistakes, almost, should be encouraged as a way of self-learning: it is this component that is currently extracted from education: it is not creativity in the approach that is encouraged, but dogmatism in the rules of following.



That is why I have come to rewrite all this. First of all, the language of the copywriter-pitcher, which is in the five paragraphs at the top, is a complete crap. I would express myself this way only if society made me think about the official language, which Habr often speaks. But I love Limonov too much to see behind any rule that which formed him: rules are ways of catching those who disagree, fighting dogma heretics. Since I am one of them, I do not need to comply with them.



How I do not need money and recognition in the order of the knights of a very important humanity. I am an artist and psychonaut who did not use anything stronger than red Chesterfield, I do not like the theory of relativity, I love people with weirdness and for some reason it seems to me that we live in a matrix (I thought so before Musk) - then some very cute things descended on me (in which ontological duality was verified by adding information unknown before the incidents to the system) and, apparently, yes. It is good that such views are not yet hung on pillars, otherwise my most valuable parts of the body would scare people away (I would like to be admired).



Dear Habr, I want to offer you something that no one suggested, because I did not see behind the parts of a whole: testwith arrows. It doesn't sound as epic as you'd expect. But our world is binar, and everything in it is arranged in such a way that there are usually two choices. I think five sometimes, but the ontology gives a nose when you want to go along them too (who would have thought). Let's limit ourselves to a couple.



Everything is very simple: I give you a link to successively learning 46 abstract katakana symbols (this is such a Japanese alphabet), and you burn yourself until you understand all of them. Tomorrow you can tell how effective it is (spoiler: very). Language Schools: I donate on any Creative Commons modifications with attribution. Thanks to everybody, you're free.
