    Fifty years ago my dad told me that if I wanted to learn I should go buy the books and study them! He said anyone that’s worthy will learn the material and be much better for it! However I told him no corporation will hire someone claiming they are an engineer if they don’t have a degree. My dad was a self-made engineer and was renowned as one. I am retired now but I was a Senior Advanced Engineer for a major corporation. I’m am glad Elon is of the same mindset as my dad!!!

      Yeah me too, School is too much of a structure for me, and even the standards of the education for our country is quite low that I'd be better off learning with the best equalizer of all. The internet. I also need to point out the fact that school does not teach creativity, which is a valuable trait that every innovative inventor should have. People in school who are in the autistic spectrum will inevitable suffer in school because it does not fit their way of learning and just as I said in the beginning school is too much of a structure for them, but don't get me wrong some people need help in managing themselves and once can confidently do it on their own then they can venture into the real world.

    This is how I learned AutoCAD and other CAD programs. My first employer gave me an old computer with AutoCAD and Vectorworks installed on it and said "Go learn them...play around with it." It took me about two months before he was able to give me actual work to do. Fast forward a little over 20 years, and I now produce Architectural and Structural Engineering drawings both privately and Freelanced to one of our leading Engineering firms. Funny enough, other than English and Basic Math, I have had no need for any of the other subjects I was taught in school.

    I see this happening in my sons' schools. They are taught math concepts which appear useless and study history that seems also useless. But I agree with Musk that students are not taught "why" they are learning something. When my kids get frustrated now, I explain to them what the purpose of the assignment/task is, what the curriculum is trying to teach, to provide some context. Hopefully, this makes the learning more relevant and motivates them to continue working with the material. Education needs to be reformed to explain why, not just the what of learning.

    Exactly what I thought. High school math was never something appealing to me until one day I had to do something involved with what I learned.
    And chemistry - when I finally figured out how to get rid of the stain on my clothes, or when I start aging and want to buy something really useful for my wrinkles.
    I'm taking time re-learning them because I finally see how useful they could be.
    Back when I was young, I was more interested in language and social acience and psychology - because I wanted to attract that super handsome british exchange boy in the next class 😂
    It was a very practical motivation/method to learn English, geography, history, and psychology.

      This is really inspiring. I’m choosing my A level options at the moment and being forced to “pick a career” right now in order to select my options. I’m realising that I’m still young and have time to learn and qualify for whatever I want to, and it might be better to use my A level qualifications as tools for later on rather than a gateway to uni.

    So far in my life with struggle and lack of mentorship there are a lot of things I can look back on and wish I hadn't been influenced at all by our traditional school systems and its very encouraging to have someone like Musk out there be able to inspire young and old generations to follow their dreams and show its okay to step out of the matrix so to speak.

    I totally agree with his statement that the most useful part of higher education being the first two years. Looking back at my time spent pursuing a bachelors degree seemed to be demonstrating the law of diminishing returns at years 3 and more so at year 4. Many times I thought to myself that I should’ve dropped out at year 3 because the opportunity cost became too much by finishing.

    The whole education system should be structured to do things that we need to live our lives- grow food, car mechanics, carpentry, budgeting, social skills- like practical things and each grade level increases the difficulty skill. After that anyone would have all the practical intelligence to learn and figure things out on their own in whatever field they want. That would be a beautiful world

    ❤️ 💙 💜 Been a public school teacher for 25 years. I loved interacting and teaching my 5 to 9 year old students through hands on learning (acting, playing, arts, drawing, origami, painting). But teachers are not allowed to use other curriculums besides the stated adopted ones. They are strict to teaching and finishing in the alloted time scheduled so students can take their end of the year state tests. All in the name of comparison to see how badly children learn. America public education is so dogmatic. In order to resolve this issue, the whole society has to come together and eliminate government and political management/control of education. I am awake to how bad and controlling America public education is now. Most education would cut art, music, sports or anything getting students to be creative due to budget. And I finally resign/quit because too much stress/anxiety to continue to be a caring teacher with the dogmatic rules and regulations that are not relevant to effectively to teach kids and for kids to learn in a fun way.

So what I'm getting to is I went on a journey to learn and since I had a clean slate I taught my self to only store what is needed and honestly it works.

    Education vs. Learning - there is a big difference.
    He‘s mostly right what he says. On one thing i don’t agree: Homework.
    I did Homework always in the school… after class, before going home. Why?
    Because after 8 hrs of learning in school, your brain needs time to integrate, to process all those informations. This was before the internet.
    I even never learned before a test, because i learned everything in school, i follow every class with the maximum awareness. it worked.
    Everything that i learned after school, i did by myself… because of interest.
