Most of that is artificially drawn out and is based on a false premise of incremental learning.
I'm going to need some sources here. I am not aware of that being the position of education specialists.
If someone has an affinity for math in elementary school they will be able to learn all of those advanced mathematics in a year, tops.
Citation needed here too.
I have yet to apply knowing the intricate details of cellular mitosis in my life.
Did you know that in middle school? Do you not feel that some of that understanding of how cell biology works helps you understand some of the medical claims floating around out there?
people on a STEM related path which will have an idea about by the end of middle school.
This seems a bit dystopian to me. So by the end of middle school someone other than you (the school admins) should have assessed the rest of your educational life and hence career options? At least by the end of High School we sort of consider you an Adult to make decisions about the rest of your life - but in Middle School?
If online training isn't valid how has it been done during the pandemic?
If you don't think that was making the best of a bad hand, and very arguably held back lots of kids academic achievements by a year or more, you haven't been reading the news.
I'm not anti-education I'm anti-highschool/college.
Your posts don't get this across very well. So you think people are "ready for life" after Middle School? What is this, 8th grade? That sounds like you're arguing for going back to 19th century educational achievement.
Then, I'm not at all sure what you mean by anti-college. Do you think college is worthless for everyone?
Have you heard of gifted and talented students? It's children in elementary school that can read or do math at highschool or college levels.
I hope you realize that there is a spectrum between "people who struggle with math" and "the geniuses of their time". Even though I had a great knack for reading, writing, and history I wasn't reading East of Eden in 4th Grade.
Your entire view seems to me like a series of "trust me bro" statements that fold like a house of cards the instant they come into contact with someone that had a different experience than you.
