Can anyone seriously imagine a ‘Euro-Centric’ school?
There is a school in my town CALLED ‘Africentric’. Whitey’s not allowed, folks. Now there are no signs that say, “The Man is Not Welcome!” but that’s the intent, and it’s not disguised. At all. There are no white kids. Period.
Hey a Euro Centric school would be great. by the 4th and 5th grade kids will be doing advanced math, geometry, trigonometry and calculus level math. They’ll also be learning the mandatory second language and get fluent in it. In their off time they will be encouraged to learn a third as a hobby. Memorization of poetry and class recitals for grades will build their memory and physical education classes will be of utmost importance. They’ll stand up every time they speak to the teacher too.
Sounds good to me. Let’s do it.
Since Europeans have dominated the world, and now East Asia is set to dominate the world, I suggest a scool modelled along those cultures. Remember, East Asians have the highest IQ by group, while Europeans are 2nd. Copying the smarter people on the planet is a good thing.
Copying loser cultures and how they teach is irrational.
I disagree. Noone has surpassed Europeans in Mathematics Physics and Memory competitions. Asians are close and on our heels but not ahead. It’s the way it’s always been.
Asians are very smart but from the robotic sense. I’ve seen Japanese kids work the ABecus and it’s amazing. But that comes at the expense of being good little robots. Something Europeans frown at. In time their societies will frown on it too.
In the ‘10,000’ thread, there’s a study that looks at IQ scores across decades and the various tests. The ones that incorporated culture were less scientifically sound that the ones based on heredity. East Asians (using the heredity tests) had Asians at 106, whites at 97, sub-Saharan blacks at 84.
Of course, there are exceptional individuals in every broad group. And I agree that creativity is more apparent in Europeans, at least considering all my former and present students. Asians ARE more ‘rote’ oriented (no pun intended).

no pun taken. It’s how it is. Their minds seem to have less plasticity. But more importantly i don’t like the mentality ( not saying you have this type of mentality) of competitiveness.
I feel every race of people has very specific attributes and strengths along with weaknesses. Neither is better, they’re different. Like which is better deadlifts or squats? Like that. Well that’s my theory at least.
