Subject: RE: BS: Feelings = Facts
Not stuffing. That is simply not the way. No-one is claiming that schools should be fact-free zones, but a one-way flow of information from teacher to pupil will ensure two things: that most of the stuffed facts will be rapidly forgotten once the exam hoop has been jumped through, and that any enthusiasm for going out and grabbing knowledge for yourself, rather than have it poured over you, will drain away.
