    Haha, it's just an idea :P. He stated some of the flaws of the current education system pretty well, and everyone has their own idea of how to improve it :gj:.

    Interesting video on the future of education.
    If something like this can be put into works an works as they hope I can see it being a cool thing. Would have been nice for school to not have been so slow for me I would have gotten in less trouble!:)

    The future of our education and society for the US in two simple forms.

    1) Korn - Evolution music video
    2) Idiocracy - Movie.

    The music video touches on the same ideas but empowers the fact that politics are bought in the US thus eliminating true progression away from the de-evolution of man . . . sad day.

    Interesting video, not surprisingly however, it is not correct. The average IQ actually tends to increase over time, its a phenomena called the Flynn Effect

    Given enough tough, it can happen. Its a factor that will push evolution, as one selective trait continues to progress at a higher rate than the other trait the mean will lean toward one side and continue to grow in that direction. It's simple math really. Regardless of theories suggesting that the average IQ will always rise - and the Lemarkian theories that what took us so long to learn will take our kids no time at all to master - is only true to those who have those desired traits. But as you look at the standpoint of lower IQ genes reproducing faster, they begin to out number the high IQ genes thus becoming selected.

    Now, unless someone wants to play hitler and start a new round of eugenics, this trait could possibly continue for a long time. At least in the U.S.
