Meganism - Take 1

Meganism is a traditional educational model which has the ultimate goal of producing caring and productive citizens. It will begin with mastering the 3 R's and then evolve to developing critical thought. It will promote an interest in local and world events. Curriculum guides will be no more than 20 pages in length and be less prescriptive then they currently are. This will allow teachers some time to teach what they are passionate about. This model discourages teachers from "bandwagon jumping" and believes that only fundamental problems in education need to be addressed. The job of the teacher is leader and role model. While it is the teacher's duty to maintain order and a structured environment, students must also view them as approachable. The role of the student is to master basic skills and then investigate their surroundings to develop a worldview. There will only be one school system so all children are unified in their experience.
