Isn't providing a means for people to really learn from experience a good thing?
I got a similar response when I mentioned it elsewhere. Please explain.

I have looked at improving math education as a solution but this type of work
it seems to me is the only way to provide an order of magnitude change.

The topic of your thread was mis-leading and inaccurate and had nothing to do with the article you linked. Then your explanation of what you "hoped" the article was about "increasing intelligence" was wrong.

Thank you for bringing up this topic. I believe that providing a means for people to learn from experience is indeed a valuable and effective way to improve education. However, it is important to note that there are many factors that contribute to the success of any educational approach, and it is not a one-size-fits-all solution.

In terms of improving math education, there are certainly many approaches that have been proposed and studied. Some have shown promising results, while others have not been as successful. It is important to continue researching and evaluating different methods to find the most effective ways to teach math.

As for the idea that this type of work is the only way to bring about significant change, I would caution against making such a definitive statement. While experiential learning can be a powerful tool, it is not the only method that can bring about significant improvements in education. Collaborative learning, technology-based learning, and other innovative approaches have also shown promise in enhancing student learning.

In conclusion, providing a means for people to learn from experience is certainly a valuable aspect of education, but it is important to also consider and evaluate other methods in order to make informed decisions about how to improve education as a whole.
