Dumbing down our children–Day 405

 

Between the 23rd of July to the 3rd of August there were 2 articles published on the Daily mail. 

The one article showing how the Smartphones generation is dumbing down the children and within that the important of Vocabulary and Language and the second article about why teaching children how to spell is no longer require in an area where the smartphone auto-correct the user's spelling.

 

Here is the reference:

 

1. iPad generation 'will learn fewer words' as oral tradition of passing on knowledge is dying out

 

"Text messages, emails and using computers to learn could be stunting children’s vocabulary, experts fear.

 

That is because our brains are hardwired to learn new words when we hear others use them in everyday conversation.

 

But learning with smartphones, tablets and computers, instead of listening to a teacher or parent, means young people are not being given the chance to hear a wide range of words, experts say…"

 

"…Dr Catani’s research suggests that children who learn from on-screen images, rather than listening to conversation, will also find it harder to take in vocabulary"

 

 

2. Stop teaching children how to spell because smartphones can do it for them, says academic in attack on traditional teaching

 

"…Spelling lessons should be scrapped because children can correct mistakes on their mobile phone or computer, a university professor has claimed.

 

Professor Mitra said in an interview with the Times that emphasising spelling and grammar in the classroom is: 'a bit unnecessary because they are skills that were very essential maybe 100 years ago but they are not right now…"

 

 

The children are the products of what we as society accept and allow and we as a society are directly responsible for the dumbing down of our children. Here understand, there are multiple dimensions involves for instance, you cannot expect a parent to not stand in alignment to the society accepted codes as that would affect their children's social status and we all know how mean children can be to one another. That means that if in a class of 30 kids for instance, a parent put their foot down and would not buy their child the I-pad that everyone else have, the child would feel lacking in comparison to their peers and in many cases, the majority would take down the kid that is lacking and that would cause psychological issues that would influence the child for their entire life on a subconscious level.

 

So we as a society, have embarrassed the I-pad as unconditional part of our lives as if we cannot even consider a life without it. Despite of the understanding that these gadgets are not effective nor supportive for the development of a child personal character, we give it to our children and further perpetuate the dumbing down process of our children.

 

We as individual parents cannot do anything about it because the I-pad/smartphones epidemic has already went to a point of no return. We hope, pray and trust  that the educational system would compensate for our ineffective parenting skills, though as the result shows, the educational system is deliberately designed to dumbing down the children.

 

The parents believe that they are powerless and thus convinced themselves that the education system is trustworthy because someone who is qualified had said so. We trust the words of our corrupted Politicians more than we trust ourselves and because of that, we cannot even consider for one moment that if we want to see a change, we must become the change.

 

It has been no secret that we are having an educational crisis all over the world; It has been no secret that the educational system dumbing down our children. If I may ask - Doesn't that makes us, parents, even dumber if we know that there is a problem, we know the problem manifests consequences on the behalf of our children and we know that we must become more involved and take our responsibility in making sure that our children would become the utmost effective human being that can be? and yet, we do nothing to correct the problem.

 

So parents - are we going to wait or are we going to be what our children expect and need us to be?

Copy Paste Character–The Education System - Day 184

This is a continuation to:

Copy Paste Character - the Way for Success? - Day 183

 

I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself to question the education system that encouraged me to develop and create the 'Copy-Paste' Character within and as myself and as I've explained in my Previous blog for example, in my University, we had open books exams where we were allowed to bring past years exams which were the exact copy of the exam I was writing and within that, all I had to do in order to get a high Mark was to copy paste the information and vomit it into my exam sheets.

 

I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself to develop, empower and grow myself within my higher studies because I didn't see why I should do so when it was so easy to get high marks in the exams without any effort on my side to actually understand and apply the information for and as myself. Within this, I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed myself to define education through Marks as I was brought up to believe that to be successful, one must have high marks to open the doors of success and as long as this side of the equation is safe and sound, there is no real reason to make any effort in educating myself for real as this world, is not based on real, valid and practical education, it is about status, money, connections and my smile that would pave the way before me, to be and become a successful human being in this world.

 

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed a world where the education system that is based on a rewards as consumerism, utilizing one's self interest desire for a specific experience and in doing so attract people into the education system without telling them that the education system is in no way a real, substantial and practical education for human beings to be and become a better humans in this world but rather, has become the tool to make the humans be less then who they are, with one gaol in front of their eyes - The path to Money and success.

 

Within that, I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself to research and investigate the starting point in the world wide education system factories that utilize human behaviour research to further brainwash people into a complete consumerism robot that is functions on a reward system to satisfied one's self interest desire and in that, the current education systems in this world further enslaving people into their own minds and keeping humans as ignorant and powerless as possible, in never developing a critical thinking that would force them to look at their acceptance and allowances which led to a world of absolute control, abuse and suffering without anyone standing up and call for a world wide change that would be best for all. Further expand your understanding through watching the documentary - The College Conspiracy.

 

And as I'm writing now, a news article was just publish about Massive Copy Paste and drops in Marks in the Israeli Education System. And who is to blame if not the education system? The kids that cheated within a system that encourage it?? http://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-4292336,00.html.

 

I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself to realize that the blame is not on the students that are becoming a copy-paste character robotic machines that are seeking for the quick way for success in having things done but the blame is on our acceptance and allowances of creating a world system that do not motivate children to perfect themselves and their LIFE skills in becoming a better and effective human beings in this world. In this, I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself to see my responsibility in accepting and allowing a world system that utilize the education system to further diminish the human beings as who they are as I've not stood up and called for a change in a global scale within and as the world system as a whole and the education system in particular.

Copy Paste Character - the Way for Success? - Day 183

I like short cuts, I like having things done quick, I like the magic wand, I like getting to the finish line without having to make much of an effort to get there. And - that's was what I was doing throughout my Life through utilizing the Copy-Paste Character; only what I haven't considered is the consequences and that within the Copy-Paste Character, I'm not really assisting and supporting myself to grow and Expand myself - all I was doing was creating a time loop that would take me much longer to correct, diminishing myself to the level of becoming a robotic human being with none critical thinking and self investigation.

 

How I have justified the Validity of existing as the Copy-Paste character is through - "I don't have time", "I need to have this done ASAP", "I don't know how to do it so well, and I don't want to spend time on something others would do better then me", "I don't know how to do this", "I will have to research and investigate the point thoroughly and I don't have the time to do so, better to simply copy-paste", "I must have it done so that I have time for more things to be done", "oh, I'm not good enough, they presented it better, I trust their application, I will simply copy paste from them".

 

When looking at the Fear dimension - if I won't do as much as I could possible do, I'll be useless and be defined as such. If I won't have it done, I will fail, I will be nothing. If I won't have it done, I won't have pleasure time so in essence, the Fear Dimension is - Fear of being Judged and disrespectful, Fear of Failure.

It's Funny because I have the tendency to take as many responsibilities as possible but within the copy paste character, what I'm now seeing, realizing and understanding that I've abdicated my responsibility from the perspective of - I don't trust myself to apply the point "correctly" and thus, I will use the application that was done by others because I trust their application and within that- I'm abdicating my own responsibility to apply myself within Self Trust, for MYSELF when and as I see a task that must be done because that is what's best for all.

 

When did I start applying the Copy-Paste character - High School. I remember having to study for a literature exams where we had to read 5 or more stories or poetry and then, analyse it and write about our understanding of it. I didn't want to do it because it wasn't a cool thing to do meaning - the cool people in my school didn't read the material, they simply read the short version that was passing around with prepared questions and answered. They also watched the movie instead of reading the book or what ever the assignment was. And I, wanted to be cool as well so I did the same, only read the short version of the story, studied the past years exams and got my A. I mean, it was easy - all I had to do is copy the information into my brain and paste it on the exams sheet. after the exam was done, I deleted the information cause I didn't have any reason to keep it there or any use of it later on in my life. Or so I believed.

 

So, my training for life in high school already was - Copy-Paste have good results and I don't need to really study and understand what I study, all I need to do is to temporarily insert the information to my mind and vomit it onto the exam sheets.

In the University - it was much EASIER process because the exams were with open books. So all I had to do is make sure I have good books and notes from people that actually studied, study their notes, make sure I know how to allocate the material quickly and again, vomit all the information to the exam sheets and get a good mark. Lol, it became much easier in my final year when I discovered that the exams each year are exactly the same and one could take the past year exams, with the answers already prepared and literally, copy paste the information into one's exam.

 

Side note - initially I thought it was a stupid thing from the university side to give us the very same exams from the years before but now, I understand the starting point in doing such a thing - having students with high grades, elevate the university reputation and with a good reputation, more money comes in. Which means, that the education system doesn't really want you to grow and expand yourself, but to rather be automated machine, with no real critical thinking and integration of the material in one's day to Day living application but they rather wants your money and use you to generate more money. On that note, I suggest watching the documentary - The College Conspiracy.

 

And now, this copy-paste character is still a character I see myself using within my day to day living application where I would look for the short cut, the quick fix, not seeing absolutely the consequences and the harm I'm creating not only for myself but for our group as a whole as within walking as the copy paste character - my support is not absolute, my standing is not absolute and the example I'm showing is not absolutely aligned within and as the principle of that which is best for all.

 

So - time to say 'Bye Bye' to the character through a process of Self Forgiveness and to instead, investigate each and every starting point in each and every task that I'm doing and within that, make sure that the starting point is Self Realization as to who I am within what I do and how who I am within what I do must result in the best for all out come.

Within that, to realize that having more and more responsibilities while they are not being walked as effective as possible is useless. Better to focus and make the best out of everything that I do instead of having things half way done and in that, compromise myself and the group as a whole.

My Life as a Character - Overview - Day 79

I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself to REALize that I'm the creator of instantaneously characters which all of them has ONE purpose, to keep me in character.

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed myself to create myself as a dimensional character that create more dimensional characters that creates more characters for one single purpose - to create more character and within that, I've enslaved myself for eternity, always creating characters separated from me, not Realizing the power of my creation that is bigger from me as the creator because I created character to create character while all along, I was the character that created character. So who am i? a character?

I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself to understand creation because I forgot that I've created myself as a character that created the character that forgot that I'm a character. Isn't it a nice stupidity loop?

I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself, as the creator of all the character to remind myself  that I'm the creator of the characters that I've created in separation of me and because I haven't created a character to remind myself that I've created me as a character, I doomed myself for eternity.

I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself to see my responsibility as the creator wherein I've created all the relationships to support me as a character to not see the power I have as the creator that can create LIFE because I created an agreement with all the characters to support me to remain in character and have thus, enslaved us all, looping between all the characters moment by moment, breath by breath until we remember creation and create ourselves as Life .

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed myself to believe that I'm the characters/personalities because I forgot that I've created these characters/personalities and I haven't considered that as the powerful creator of an eternal enslavement, I can delete the characters and freely choose, in self honesty, to step out of character and clear up the mess that I've created in character.

I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself to realize that I've accepted and gave permission to other characters to resists change and to thus, do what they can to sabotage and limit my own self change because that is how I made sure that I won't change. Within that, I see, realize and understand how I've created resistance, how I gave power to resistance because I created resistance to protect me from an actual change.

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed myself to create a character that fear stepping out of character because I know that I created characters that will attack and hurt my character because I fuck up with their characters. Thus, I realize that the conflicts, attacks and harms are all characters that I've created and I commit myself to stand in the face of what may come, prepared, in self trust, Here. And I realize that within that statement, I've created a character and thus I stop.

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed myself to look at the thought, realize that the thought was a character, to then find out that it was a character that realized that the thought was a character because I have now created a memory of the "realization" which I now let go, return to my human physical body and in an instantaneously moment, I create another character as a thought comes up and the cycle looping itself. So I keep reminding myself that I've created myself as character and I stop, and I realized that I created the character that reminds me that I've created a character until I step out of all the characters and no longer require character to remind myself that I'm a character.

I commit myself to support myself in seeing, releasing, deleting and clearing the mess that I've created in characters

I commit myself to keep reminding myself to step out of character when and as I see myself accessing a character and within that, I let go self judgement when I see that I'm still a character because I realized that self judgement is another character that I've created.

I commit myself to remind myself that I've created a character the remind myself that I'm a character to assist and support myself with stepping out of all my characters until I'm no longer creating a character of stepping out of character.

I commit myself to clear up the mess that I've created as characters and stand in the face of each and every character, forgive myself as the character and let it go.

I commit myself to show that character is being created instantaneously when a thought comes up, a memory has now been created as an experience that the memory has created as it created me. And within that, we are eternally fucked until we step out of character by cleaning that mess that we have created in character.
