See that's more sensible.
Still there's benefits for setting minimums in educational curriculum across a nation.
You’ve encouraged me to look into this further. Apparently, I interpreted these freedoms wrong. They seem (in my limited undestanding) to be more about research and university teaching than “regular” schools. That is, researches can look into anything they want, but teachers can’t teach whatever they want.
There are curriculums, issued by the individual states, that are binding for schools and teachers. This should’ve told me immediately that education can’t be as free as I thought.
I agree with you that there should be “minimums in educational curriculum”. There’s an ongoing debate that education should be more standardized across the states, but as it is now, even different schools within the same state have different exams that are not all equally difficult to pass.
A minimum education standard would be inclusive not exclusive like what Florida is pushing.
There's a clear difference.
We're clearly talking about Germany here.
No one gives a fuck what the idiots in Florida do.
This whole thread is about Florida. Both places are far too highly concentrated with Nazis, try not to hurt yourself in your confusion.
The original post is about Florida.
This comment chain pivoted to Germany.
Thank you for acknowledging your mistake.
Yeah, nah.
You don’t know how conversations work do you?
