But something bad happened. Somewhere, this project went wrong. And I think it went wrong when we decided to industrialize education. After the industrial revolution, we were in love with the idea of mass- producing everything. We fell in love with the assembly line. So we decided to make education an industrial product. We standardized curriculum. We invented the school bell. We grouped students by age. The only problem is that this was done before any research on education had ever been done. Of course the mass production of education did wonders to universalize schooling. But we designed a system not knowing anything about the brain, about human learning, motivation, behavior, memory, or children developmental stages. And now, that system created in this vacuum of research is what we have, and it is very resistant to change. It is really hard to transform it, even though it’s terribly inefficient given what we know and the new technologies we have.
