Totally agree - the centre we are building in Madeira will have that as a core principle. Parents will be unlearning their schooling via kids who are free to problem solve with a beginners mind
Discussion
What exactly would a parent be unlearning? Arithmetic? The scientific method? How to structure an expository piece of writing? Figurative language techniques? Math facts?
How they were conditioned by their parents / their schooling exp etc - their addiction to achieve strive for praise
Why would you assume that students have been conditioned to strive for praise?
Because we are all conditioned to seek external praise validation from the schooling system. Gold stars / good exam results good university - this is how our society is structured
Most of my students work hard because it makes them feel good, and the external rewards are secondary. Hunters, warriors, queens, and everyone else who has come before us did things for recognition from their communities and peers. In the north, hunters were given wolverine furs to wear on their hoods to show that they were the best hunters and could stay out on the ice the longest. If you want to replace this system, what would you replace it with? The developers of nostr are probably doing their work because they find it rewarding intrinsically but there is no harm in external recognition from the community.
