Has anyone
wonder why skool is the new word for school? I think it is cute, just like
writing govt as garment and yew think everyone will appreciate the creativity
of the word. My First Skool must be the first step to creativity. To promote
creativity, to be different like yew know ya, everything goes. If our skools
will progress along this line we will have many Steve Jobs and Bill Gates or
Zuckerbergs in the future, provided no one will snuff out this creativity
streak in the young. I am not going to challenge the professional educators on
why this is a good thing or a bad thing.
The young
minds are innocent and impressionable and skool would be in their vocabularly
for life. What about the adults who would view things differently, maybe
cynically. Some are already commenting that this is a Freudian slip, that our
schools are really nothing but skools. They are not schools any more but this new
thing called skool and not sure what it means or what it is doing.
What is a skool
and what is it supposed to produce, Stool or R2D2? R2D2 is famous for being a
mobile storehouse for information and data. Not sure if it is programmed to
think, but it sure is a remarkable robot that is a super encyclopedia. Whatever
that is fed into R2D2 will come out like stool, freely and smoothly, not a word
or a comma missing.
Would our
schools be transformed over time, into skools as a natural process? What do yew
think?
