Do you believe the educational system is "broken?"?

Yes, but I think the university level is the least of our problems. We have an education system that values regurgitating information over real learning starting at a very early age. That doesn't give kids the skills they need for college, or for the real world. The reason internships are so successful is that they give people the opportunities to apply their knowledge, and think critically about real-world situations. We need a total education overhaul, starting with teaching kids to think critically at early levels. You don't learn by memorizing, and yet that's how we teach kids math and science. Think back to third grade; didn't you learn your multiplication tables by memorizing flash cards? Is it any wonder that we're lacking in engineers, doctors, and scientists? We aren't teaching our kids math and science properly!
