"The Case Against College"
After reading this article I have mixed emotions. In the beginning I began to agree with Dale Stephen (the author) because I find that students creativity is limited within the educational system that we engage in. As I read further into the article though I began to question the validity it had. The reason for this is because we grow up believing that home-schooled children aren't as smart as those who are taught in public schools. I do feel that they are able to express their creativity more, but I also find within my own experience with home-schooled students that they struggle to be socially accepted. This I believe can be tested and would be argument enough to prove that despite their greater amount of creativity, home-schooled students may struggle in job situations. I understand there are many different arguments toward this, but I find that a larger importance on creativity is necessary in public schools to help with the advancement of our society (and to keep up with the ever competitive economy).
