That high school is the best four years of your life. My HS principal and vice principal said this a lot. I'm sure that's true for a few folks, but myself and a whole lot of people I know are happier now as full-fledged adults than they were as high schoolers.

Story 36: Yeah generally Wikipedia is a decent source for general topics. But if it's anything political it can be a real problem. As there have been notable examples of articles being changed to suit the admin politics. Up to and including asserting information that's been proven false or just deleted sourced that the admins consider too politically sensitive.

On the Vietnam War, the way I learned about the outcome for the first time was something like this: US (losing money): Are you done yet? North Vietnam (on fire, lacking infrastructure): NO! US (still losing money): Well, forget this. *Goes home to no danger.* North Vietnam (still on fire): I WIN!

I remember the teacher saying different parts of your tongue taste different things. The teacher had up put things like candy, salts, lemons, etc on different parts of our tongue. I think I rememeber the other students chatting about how it worked. I never said anything but I could taste that dang lemon in every part of my mouth

So I owe him 3 apples? Yes we put that as - meaning negative then the number owed.... It obvously got a lot more complicated lol but that's how they taught 7 year old me.

That when doing multiplication the larger number had to be on the top and the smaller number on the bottom, otherwise it couldn't be done. Disallowing that the size of the numbers (larger/smaller) has nothing to do with the value (greater/lesser), it wasn't until I was in high school that I realized that I had just proven the associative property of mathematics in the 3rd grade.

We were doing spelling/literacy, I think it might have been in Yr 3 or 4, when I used the word 'disease' in the sentence 'A cold is a disease'. The teacher told me that it wasn't a disease, it was a virus, and I'm not sure why this correction was necessary as we were only doing spelling. Anyway, it wasn't until years later that I found out that the real definition of 'disease' didn't have anything to do with its cause.

Story 4- some of my kids at work struggle with the concept of math sometimes (like basic addition and subtraction) so I always use the example of money. For example: you have $12 in your bank account and you spend $20, how much money do you have? Another thing I do for algebra. 12x + 10y = 120. I then example that X are girls and Y are boys. The girls and boys can't talk to each other, so we can't have them hanging out together, so we got to move them to opposite sides and figure it out from there and only the numbers that have x or y can hangout with numbers that have x or y and can't hangout with another group or they break rules and get in trouble (at our job the boys and girls can't interact with each other). Sometimes you just gotta break it down in ways they understand and in things they know. It's not always about explaining it the way you're told to explain it, but explaining it in a way they'll understand. You have to often meet them where they're at with what they know.

A lot of models in science that we learn in school are not accurate but they still have a merit. They are able to help people understand the basic dynamics and concepts. And if you go higher in your education you will learn more modern and accurate models that help with issues of higher fidelity. It's probably not the best idea to teach middle school students about quantum physics when they don't even know how a atom is constructed.

A teacher told us the earth was discovered to be round by some man sitting on the beach watching a ship sail in, and he could see it coming over the curve with only the top showing at first. I wish she would just have said that she didn't know how they figured out the shape of the earth. She was teaching Danish and English. It wasn't as if this was something she was supposed to know for our lessons.

That Sherlock Holmes used deductive reasoning. This isn't true, he actually used inductive reasoning. I learned the difference in a Uni course yet was still marked wrong on a test when I answered that he used inductive reasoning. I think my professor was either an idiot or too caught up in the fact that Sherlock would always say "I deduce". I tried to appeal it and even explained to her why I was right, but she just shut me down and refused to change it. It wasn't as if it would have greatly altered my grade on the test or in the class, but it was the principle of the thing. I was pissed to say the least. 😠

"You can't take the square root of a negative number." Of course you can. In fact, in electrical engineering, you _have_ to. The problem is that what you get is a two-dimensional number (on a number plane instead of a number line) and high school math teachers _really_ don't want to have to explain that to high school students. Not to mention the fact that doing math with such numbers is a real pain in the butt.

There are two color systems: additive and subtractive. In the additive color system, where you add light together to form colors (like a computer screen), then red, GREEN, and blue are primary colors. This is where we get the term RGB from. In the subtractive color system, you use pigments or filters to remove light. The primary colors in this system are cyan, magenta, and yellow. This is what color printers use (at least home printers do). When these three pigments are used, you would expect black to be a result of complete mixture of these colors, but you would just get a dark gray mess, so black pigment is used as well. This black pigment is called a “key” pigment, so when you shop for printer ink, you will see these pigments as being labeled as CYMK. So green can be a primary color, it just depends on which color system you use.

@@jacksonhazeltine9291totally agree! But... I think when they say a 'primary color', they're talking about early art class, where red yellow and blue are primary colors and you mix them to get the other colors.
