\n\u25cb Possibly signifies moment when the narrator starts to blend the two ideas and ceases to see them as a binary
\n\u2022 We’ve lost touch with how amazing the technology we use every day and take for granted is
\n\u2022 154 “it’s not the technology that’s scary, it’s what it does to relationships between people”
\n\u2022 The functions and capabilities of technology are cool, but how does it change the way we experience things
\n\u2022 Big technology discussion, unfortunately I was so enthralled and invested I forgot to take notes. Apologies.
\n\u2022 A different perspective of things can change your whole attitude
\n\u2022 Technology can be very addicting

Content
\n\u2022 Big focus on the quality of teaching
\nTalks a lot about mimicry and imitation in schools
\n\u2022 High school facilities a lot of mimicry and regurgitation
\n\u25cb Due to standardized testing, a lot of schools with limited resources find themselves cutting arts and creativity
\n\u25cb We justify bring back art by saying that it will improve performance in other fields
\n\u25cb We fail to appreciate art for what it is
\n\u2022 While standardized tests have had an effect on our country, there is some value to keeping track of the progress of all students
\n\u2022 Standardize testing in and of itself isn’t bad, but the implementation is ineffective
\n\u2022 Although perhaps it is impossible to implement them in the perfect
\n\u2022 It naturally occurs that more privileged areas become more capable of doing well, despite the SAT being invented as a test not to be studied for
\n\u2022 What does it do v. What is it good for
\n\u2022 Perhaps there is some value to not pursuing high education because of the way that it forms us and molds us into analogous products
\n\u2022 Discipline and play
\n\u25cb You need to be disciplined enough to play
\n\u25cb A perfect education system would build a strong foundation of basic skills so that students can then exercise creativity
\n\u2022 Rhetoric
\n\u25cb Speech in writing
\n\u2022 Writing seminars are simply teaching Princeton students to mimic
\n\u2022 Professors sometimes simply enforce templates for the sake of producing what is expected
\n\u2022 Writing program is formed around the idea of building your own credibility as a writer around arbitrary topics and structures
\n\u2022 There is value in being taught to argue something without necessarily being passionate about it<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
