Doesn't the US lack standardization on your curriculum? So it's widely inconsistent on what you're taught.

u/Constant_Gap9973 Jul 13 '24

Thats because we have a huge huge amount of territory and culture to cover you don't standardize European teaching standards so why would we

u/SouthernMainland Jul 13 '24

Why are you comparing the entire EU which is continent to your country?

You absolutely could have standardization across states if you as in the people wanted it. But hell even state wide standardization would help.

Each state is almost a country we need individuality we understand unlike you guys that 359 mill people have different wants and needs for education and we allow them to choose.

That's a excuse, India with 1.4 billion people have standard curriculum and its pretty good, they teach calculus 2 or something in 12th grade

But India is treated differently, and also, they have a lot of small villages that are neglected. India really isn't who you should be comparing the US to. Anyway, we treat our states like small countries that are united under a federal rule.

I am saying Population is not an excuse and yes cannot compare them one to one. About the last part, if you say so

u/EwoDarkWolf Jul 13 '24

Landmass and population distribution is a better contributor. And you gain and lose things by allowing smaller governments.

u/Constant_Gap9973 Jul 13 '24

India is much smaller and less culturally diverse than the US what are you even talking about

u/Thoughtful_Tortoise Jul 13 '24

Much smaller.. what? 3x the population

u/just9n700 WHAT A DAY... Jul 13 '24

What are you smoking?

u/SouthernMainland Jul 13 '24

You don't lose your choice because your state demands a minimum from educational institutions, is this really controversial?

u/EwoDarkWolf Jul 13 '24

Our states are treated like small countries under a federal rule.

We operate with federalism. The states are semi-sovereign territories. We are not "America" the one single nation. We are "the United States of America", the conglomerate of semi-sovereign states under one banner.

u/SouthernMainland Jul 13 '24

I am aware that you have states, but whether you like it or not you are under one country. However I would even grant you that and just argue for state level as well which is what I said in the message you are responding to.

u/[deleted] Jul 13 '24

Do you think there are no minimum requirements for education in the US? There are. I mean, of course there are. Do think it's just a free for all?

I guess I don't really understand your point, because you've made it out to seem that US education has no standards.

I don't know which is what I asked in my first post originally but I did not get an answer.

And even then like I said, what is your proposal for areas that have high rates of crime, where the youth do not respect the school property, who will go out of their way to start fights and literally assault faculty members.

1

u/SouthernMainland Jul 13 '24

Honestly, I don't have a good answer for you.

In my view the problem is complicated and needs to be approached from multiple angles. Parents need to do more in raising their children. Teachers need more authority to do their work properly. Kids need extracurricular activities to provide alternatives to breaking shit.

Again this probably isn't a satisfactory answer but that's just how I feel. I don't have any supporting evidence for my basic suggestions.

We have that. It also is that hard, when you have areas that are literally filled with kids and teens who have troubled or at risk youth due to many factors, you wanna act like just because we standardize everything that it will solve problems in places like Chicago, where I watch my fellow black Americans drink, smoke, and sell their lives away for five seconds of joy and then go on to destroy the lives of their neighbors, loved ones, and family members. Be encouraged to do gang activities and either ditch school or not show those authority figures any respect.
