I was thinking of this today, what's the point of a college education, with you tube / internet ???

[Wyatt earp]

I ran into a problem with a Cummings generator and I have really never delt with them..i just googled it and used you tube and found the solution..

There is a huge difference between having knowledge of facts, and the ability to understand concepts.

Not to mention innovation requires a lot more than just being able to regurgitate facts.

 

[Pogo]

Agree with Lewdog. Clearly YouTube and duh Googles don't teach how to think.

Their is a huge difference between knowledge and wisdom. .


But that's not the point of my thread ..i have been finding out when I have a problem the past 8 years with industrial machinery or took a simple part time job as a apartment maintenance guy..all I have to do is you tube it or Google it the schematics how some other guy or girl fixed the problem..

Bull shit colleges don't teach you how to think they teach you what to think..



Does colleges professors just say you tube a problem?

I understand they teaches English.

Any good edumacation should be teaching how to think. What to think is your own elective, but you'll need the tools to get there.

If anything teaches what to think it would be TV.

A serious question here is the internet making college obsolete?

But of coarse. Learned it under pain of nun torture, damn right I do.

And I can type too.

 

[Lewdog]

No.

 

[Wyatt earp]

I can fix anything , program and robotics on the market ..and with the internet and you tube..well nothing I can't fix..you can go to message boards and find out how others fix it, down load manual books, wiring schematics , hydraulic schematics.

Not too sure if the internet is making college obsolete, but liberal professors are certainly trying their hardest.

No, But it may make tech schools obsolete! College teaches how to create things that don't yet exist.
