I'd say for measuring performance, just some easier way for people to see this school is better than that one. And I don't mean keep the standardized tests we have now, those are garbage, they'd need to be rewritten. I'd just want some kind of score or index to measure the performance of a school, but maybe that opens up too many problems; it's a hard thing to measure accurately. I'm in software development and I'd agree with you that certs are not all that, talking with someone for like 30 min gives me a much better idea of what they know, but I'm talking more elementary and high school level here so I don't know that interviewing students is a solution.
Maybe a better performance metric would be student outcomes in the job market, but that would have a pretty big lag time, I don't know.

Why? Why is that the way? Why are we always measuring dicks? Education needs to change completely. I don't mean we need to be more open minded, less restrictive, I mean we need to move away from creating the Machine and moving towards understanding the universe and/or life and/or ourselves.
In anything we need to know, there is no "standard" to which we need to be measured. Almost everything we currently think matters (everything on these tests) is just part of creating or maintaining the Cabal Machine.
Our education builds The Matrix. We need to learn to appreciate exactly what that really means.
So I pretty much agree with you here. I'm looking at schools and education as it pertains to equipping a person to interact with the world and succeed and be self-sufficient. I'm looking at it in a way to deal with the world as it is today.
You are talking much bigger picture stuff, which I would love, but essentially means we also need to change the way we live and structure society, which is a task that should be approached at your peril and with great caution since it can go so bad in so many ways.
Our education builds The Matrix.
As it is now? Yeah. And maybe what I'm suggesting, in a way, would do that too. That journey of "understanding the universe and/or life and/or ourselves" has always been one I've undertaken alone (in a sense), so I didn't even really consider incorporating that into our Education System.
I think there are small portions at least, of this Matrix we find ourselves in, that are probably still essential to living life. That's probably why so many accept it. Which maybe then you would just say that isn't part of it, so semantics maybe. But I've always viewed education and a vocation as part of those essentials. We have certain needs that need to be met before anyone can even think about "understanding the universe and/or life and/or ourselves"

These are not separate endeavors. For example, monks spend their time farming, and meditating. It's the same action.
The Universe speaks to us all the time. We spend so much of our time not listening to what it has to say, because we are so busy making The Machine, and worrying about our house payments (which are a huge part of the fraud) and thinking about our relationship problems (also an huge and intentional part of the fraud). It is the work we do, and the problems that we have that are "the problem."
I'm not saying all of our work is "bad." I love science. I love building things, creating things, engineering things. I love writing software and making a computer sing to my tune. It is very rewarding. There is an appreciation of That Which Is within those endeavors, when we do it for ourselves. It is when we do it for The Machine that it loses its soul, that we lose our soul.
The Matrix is built upon Truth. It can't be any other way. The Matrix is our beliefs of what is real, that are created for us, to perpetuate the fraud, to keep us locked within it. To keep us separated and at odds with each other, to hide the real enemy.
Once we recognize that The Matrix exists, that it has many layers, that there are multiple levels of The Matrix, many veils to uncover, each one behind the previous one; then we will be on the path out. The full reveal may take a while, but the initial recognition of its existence, and the subsequent exposition of scope I don't think will take that long. We can begin building a completely different world right away.
Once the economy becomes truly free (which it has never been), I think the world will change at break-neck speed.
