#SCHOOL

[macgyvermedical]

Took me until about halfway through college before I realized “study” means “play with the material in a variety of ways until you understand it” and not just “read the assigned chapters and do the homework” and I think that probably should have been discussed at some point prior to that.

A couple of years ago we were all terribly concerned about the fact that a lot of American high schools are assigning such crushing homework loads that some kids literally don't have enough time to eat or sleep (and all this in spite of the fact that there's no good evidence that assigning homework actually improves academic outcomes at the pre-university level), but now we're hearing stories about those same schools struggling to stop kids from using ChatGPT to write their essays and suddenly It's The Children Who Are Wrong. Like, do you think maybe there's a certain level of cause and effect in play here?

At least for me, I think the reason for this is that school provided lots of convenient clues for dating memories - on a yearly granularity even! - and after getting freed from school, there are a lot fewer clues, and any clues that might be there are much less rigidly granular.

For example, if I recall a memory from back when I was in school, I might remember that it was an event that happened in the fifth grade classroom, and the fifth grade teacher was in the room, and my fifth grade friends were there. That's a lot of clues that this memory is probably from when I was in fifth grade, which would mean I was about ten years old, and I can understand the relative chronology of that memory compared to my current age, or compared to a different memory of when I was in third grade, etc.

But after there was no more school, I no longer would be in a new classroom with a new teacher every single year like clockwork. There's no longer a plethora of obvious clues inside each memory itself about when the memory took place. I can think of a different memory and remember that this memory took place in my first apartment... so that means it took place somewhere in the range of three or so years that I was living in that particular apartment. I can think of a different memory that took place at my second apartment, and I lived there for seven or so years, so that's a pretty big range for when that memory might have happened... so when exactly was it?

At least for me, my memories tend to include where I was sitting or standing when the event occured. So I can sometimes get more granular with my memory because I remember I was sitting at my desk in my second apartment, and my desk was oriented a certain way, so I can know if the memory is from some time after we rearranged the room so that my desk would be in that spot.

So, in the event that your brain works anything like my brain, if you are finding yourself in a timeless haze, I recommend moving (lol), or at the very least moving the furniture around, to give yourself new clues in your memories so that they don't all feel like they are from the same exact place, which feels like all part of the same time.

little known fact, once you are older & no longer in school, time stops being real. did that thing happen one year ago? two? five? a few months ago? who knows.

ChatGPT and its widespread use now is a direct consequence of the “it’s not cool to try” trend. It’s so sad how many people willingly choose ignorance over bettering themselves.

"what did students do before chatgpt?" well one time i forgot i had a history essay due at my 10am class the morning of so over the course of my 30 minute bus ride to school i awkwardly used by backpack as a desk, sped wrote the essay, and got an A on it.

six months later i re-read the essay prior to the final exam, went 'ohhhh yeah i remember this', got a question on that topic, and aced it.

point being that actually doing the work is how you learn the material and internalize it. ChatGPT can give you a short cut but it won't build you the the muscles.
