Our readingWhat is a korrent?
Drawn from what William Deresiewicz said
education How children are taught and tested: schools, tutoring, what a lesson at the right level does, and what AI changes.
The system forgot to teach them, along the way to the prestige admissions and the lucrative jobs, that the most important achievements can’t be measured by a letter or a number or a name. It forgot that the true purpose of education is to make minds, not careers.
