Dr. Nemko, who holds a Ph.D.from Berkeley specializing in the evaluation of education and subsequently taught in Berkeley’s graduate school, believes that higher education, especially at prestigious universities–provides bad value for the time and money, in learning growth, personal growth, and in employment. He discusses how higher education should be reinvented so it lives up to the deceptive promises in colleges’ promotional materials and more importantly, lives up to the unquestioned cliché that American higher education is a national treasure. He also offers practical advice on how to make the most of Berkeley, plus career and entrepreneurial ideas for reinventing higher education.

If someone tried to implement the Swedish preschool model in the UK or USA, how would you respond – praise them as a pioneer or accuse them of being an anarchist? Yet a typical, bog-standard Swedish preschool produces confident, happy children who, despite their comparitively low literacy levels are so eager to learn that by the time they are 10 years old, they have overtaken their British counterparts and go on to excel both in higher education and in their careers. Contrast that with UK and US school children. How happy, confident and eager to learn are they? Our children are the ones who suffer most from the burden of SATs, who are constrained most by the demands of the national curriculum. They have to face long, boring days in woefully underfunded schools. Teachers and support staff do their best and know what’s needed but they cannot win this fight alone. We all need to join in demanding radical change. The film’s narrator asks, “Can we afford to invest as much as the Swedes do in preschool education?” It’s your tax money and your vote. Let them know what you think. Visit www.teachers.tv and register (for free) to download a higher quality version of this film and to see other excellent films about education.
Despite not starting formal education until seven, by age eleven, Swedish and Finnish children approach the top of Europe’s literacy league tables. Finnish children spend fewer hours in school than any other in Europe, yet their children’s achievements in numeracy and literacy are the the envy even of Sweden. Talking of envy, don’t you wish you had gone to a preschool like the one shown in this video? Wouldn’t you feel happier sending your child to such a school? Imagine being a teacher there – or simply working in the kitchen! Sweden is not some weird utopia. Swedes just happen to have some enlightened ideas about preschool education. There’s nothing in this video that wouldn’t work in the UK or USA, or with your children. Incidentally, if you visit www.teachers.tv you can (after free registration) download a higher quality version of this and other films about education.
