Where is it really going?

[Pred]

1/Depression
2/Dictatorship + people signing their rights away
3/War

It always follows this route
Be prepared or get out while you can
I hear the moon is nice this time of year

I love it when they go to the schools on results day and ask the teachers and students about exams being dumbed down compared to those in years gone by.

The answer is always the same... "No, exams today are just as hard".. the next question should be have "you sat an exam from years gone by?" Chances are the answer will be no.

That is strike one num nuts you have automatically failed the logic section. I watch that question every year and laugh my balls off.

Holy Jesus Christ mother of god, holy Mohammed, tears are rolling down my eyes with laughter. There is, this second 06:42 on BBC1 breakfast news a guy saying History is less important than the subject he teaches.. Media Studies. He said History is taught very factually and very dry where as Media studies is fun. There is too much of a factual approach to history...........???????? WTF

Even the presenters jaw's dropped on it, the funniest thing I have seen in a long while. Media Studies the subject that highlights the total decline in education. Anyone involved in the propagation of this subject should be sacked and locked up.

One example:

At the opposite end of the spectrum MA in Digital Games is available at Liverpool John Moores University in the UK. The course offers the obligatory focus on the changing form and content of games, but also teaches theoretical notions of game play, as well as the cultural and social issues surrounding video games. The university states: “We strongly believe that digital games are one of the most significant cultural forms of our time.”
