By the definition of "system" it has be standardized, controlled, measured, etc. And that's probably the whole problem :) I think it was Robert Heinlein who said in a number of his books that education was 2 people (one a teacher, the other a student) sitting on a log exchanging information. (Complete paraphrase, I don't have time to look it up properly.) And if you think a state system, or a privately funded one, will end up like Heinlein's idea ... well, I've got a bridge you might want to buy. It pisses me off that teachers think that arts in schools need to be evaluated with exams ... but, honestly, I don't have a solution other than not teaching arts in schools. Nothing evil going on. Just people doing their jobs :) -- **** Listen to my CD at http://www.mellowood.ca/music/cedars **** Bob van der Poel ** Wynndel, British Columbia, CANADA ** EMAIL: bob@xxxxxxxxxxxx WWW: http://www.mellowood.ca _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
