LEARNING HOW TO LEARN HOW TO LEARN

Documenting The Transition From Old-Style Linear Lesson Planning To New-Style Hypertext Lesson Planning, Including A Design For Tests That Grade Themselves
[A Work In Progress.....]

The Why

The Reasons Why An Overhaul Of
Our Way Of Teaching Is Due:


Our National Debtload Is Out-of-Control, And Bloated, And Stretching Bigger And Bigger. It Can Never Collapse---They Just Charge It To Our Descendants---Due To Problems We Are Failing To Face, Such As

1.   Medicare In The Last Year Of Life

For Failing To Overrule Dominance By Pharmaceutical Company Brainwashing Of Medical Doctors

Also For Failing To Allow Assisted Suicide For The Terminally Ill In Intractable Pain

Update: already, federal court decisions in several states have corrected this problem.

2.   Public Welfare As A Perpetual Income ;

For Failure To Make It Easy To Find Work

For Failing To Teach Self-Sufficiency

People Need Something Constructive To Do

3.   Billions Wasted On The Defense Budget

For Failure To Use Both Sides Of Our Brain To Reach Reasonable Solutions

For Failure To Change The System To Protect The People's Treasury Against
Waste By LeftBrained Politicians

4.    More And More Prisons & Prison Guards:

Legions Of MINUS EARNERS, Draining Money Out Of The Treasury

For Failure To Make It Easy To Find Work On A Short Notice

For Failure To Stop The Phony War On Drugs

People Need Something Constructive To Do

5.    More And More Pseudo-Agencies Developed To Treat The After- Effects Of Unemployment

Ever-Increasing Legions Of MINUS EARNERS, Draining Money Out Of The Treasury

For Failure To Make It Easy To Find Work On A Short Notice    
People Need Something Constructive To Do

For Failing To Teach Self-Sufficiency

6.    Starvation And Strangling Of School & College Budgets

By Shortsighted Left-Brained Politicians

People Need Something Constructive To Do

7.    Increasingly irritable militias running out of patience with status quo leaders.

The Enemy


Anyone Who Advises You Not To Trust Your Own RightBrain Thoughts.

Stop Listening To Them.



The Solution:


Empower Teachers To Create Long-Distance Learning Courses That Empower Students To Be Integrated Thinkers

                 Long-Distance Learning, And Why We Should Facilitate It

                 Why Hypertext Is Better Than Linear

                 Why Self-Directed Learning

                 Why Both Sides Of The Brain Makes Learning Easier

                 Why Involve The "Wisdom Of The Heart" In Learning

Create An Expectation Of Lifelong Learning To Adapt To Change

Get As Many As Possible Learning Something New



Long-Distance Learning, And Why We Should Facilitate It

1. There Will Never Be Enough Teachers, Enough Classrooms For All The People Who Need To Learn New Things.

2. Too Many People Need Something Constructive To Do, For Available Classrooms.

3. Learning More Self-Sufficiency Lightens Welfare Debt Load & Creates More Plus Earners.

4. It Can Be An Alternative When Students Move, Become Sick, Or Other Reasons For Dropping Out.

5. It Can Accommodate Students For Whom The School Room Experience Is Stressful, Or Who For Other Reasons, Prefer HomeSchooling.

6. With The New "Teacher" Being The Resources On The InterNet, Why Limit Ourselves To The Classroom Model?

7. Star Teachers Can Expand Their Influence. Why Shouldn't Everyone Be Able To Learn From The Best Teachers That There Are?

8. The Things That Teachers Learn From Preparing Hypertext Lesson Plans Will Enrich All Their Teaching.



Why Hypertext Is Better Than Linear


Why Hypertext Lesson Plans Are Higher Quality Than Linear Lesson Plans, (Even For The Classroom Attendance Model)

Teaching how to learn how to learn easier has priority over teaching them what to learn.

Hypertext lends itself to eventual long-distance learning courses and CD-ROMs.

Teachers can continue to earn after retirement, from royalties on their CD-ROM courses.
