There is a certain frustration that is present when I study the research another before me, more specifically the products of minds like Newton and Galileo. This is normally when a teacher requires that you know information regarding these men by first accepting them as mere fact. While it is valuable to understand their research as fact, I feel that first accepting it for fact is a thwart that may prevent a broader understanding of the subject. A broader understanding being one that extends to the unproven extensions of the subject. This brings me to the purpose of my ideal school. School's primary value system should be built around the same value for inquiry that SLA is founded from, however, it will have stronger relations between inquiry and research. This only being a primary value of the school obviously elaborates into different aspects of the school.

School in my eyes should be about teaching to develop ideas about the world. Every person should learn a perspective on the world by the time they are an adult. This in effect would take the form of inquiry based research. The intentions of this is not to simply make them acutely aware of current knowledge, but to make them aware of the origins of what is known now. This I believe will make students more driven to innovate than to find part of simple productivity.

But it should not be something that will define a student for their-self. School should be an institution that provides a core basis for what a student should be their-self. Within that a student should be able to command enough knowledge to take themselves to a specific place. Whether that might be a career or a personal frame of mind.

I say this because school seems to have been more driven to produce competent beings that will help to maintain life as it has been. This I have seen has minimized a world where there is constant innovation. The trouble in this is that there is less innovation for the minds of the most diverse minds populating societies. If school should be anything it should be a place that supports creativity as much as they embrace academic achievement. Along with that it should make distinctions between creativity and academic inclinations, so that children can work to achieve both.

I believe that the people who create systems should be closer in relation to the system itself in order to be qualified to influence it. That is why more people should be driven to define how their surroundings work. I believe that if there are more of these people who strive to support creativity, society as a whole will be more productive.
