For the most part, they don&#x27;t teach either. They don&#x27;t teach good communication skills, nor do they teach you to shut up. Typically, students will talk, and get scolded when the teacher doesn&#x27;t want them to talk. That&#x27;s not a lesson. It&#x27;s a power grab.<p>They don&#x27;t teach how to ask questions either.

The modern system was suppose to create a smart and dependable work force by teaching students how to study, which is basically how to follow instructions and absorb anything handed to them. Except, that is only a small fraction of most work, and even the studying part they stop doing because it was never fun or important to them, or they never got good at it to begin with. Because, ironically, most schools don&#x27;t teach you how to study. They just <i>make</i> you study.
