Learning to learn... Stay with me.

I didn't do too well in high school. It wasn't that I was a bad student or had poor intelligence, it was that I never really understood how to learn. When I went to University they held seminars on how to learn for new students. I reckon they were some of the most important seminars I attended.

If I recieved those lessons at the start of high school I would have been far better off. I was taught how to process information, how to communicate my ideas and thoughts effectively and how to think critically; it acted as a backbone for everything else I learned while I was there.

As for traditional lessons that should have more focus, I would say maths. People say you don't need it, but they're just plain wrong.

This actually sounds like a good ideea. Now if only teachers would be taught how to teach.
