This is just “what educators have known about education for decades” in meme format.

Different people do best learning in different ways. And different people learn different subjects at different rates. Grouping people my age, putting them all in lectures during the day and having them all do task work at home is not a good solution to education.

It was great when it was introduced, because it brought the majority of uneducated people up to a minimum level where they could read and do arithmetic. But compared to what we COULD be doing now that we know more and are better at it, this sort of industrial era “factory line” approach is idiotic.

And educators have known it for a long time now. Government just hasn’t caught up
