Angelis commented on Pick a problem not a major - updated 2/27 insights and challenges
Hi Terry,
This is a wonderful idea! It reminds me of this common phenomenon we are all used to seeing where a lot of people don't end up working in the field they study in college. I myself am highly interested in education reform but am majoring in Operations at a business school. Had I been asked at the beginning of my college career what problem I want to solve, I more than likely would have fallen into a different path of study.
I also think that by asking this question, you're not only challenging students (declaring a major, etc) but teachers and their methods of instruction as well. Classroom instruction might not be focused so much on lecturing but scenario and self directed learning instead.
Now a semester away from graduating college, I wish I had this app in high school. The idea that I could have been saving towards my tuition as a freshman in high school is great. This is such a needed tool!
