Part 2 Summary
The Guardian article ” Schools Are Killing Curiosity ” by Wendy Berliner illuminates how their research has pointed out how teachers are passively killing students curiosity. As Berliner cites from research conducted by the University of Michigan, the ability to focus wasn’t as important as curiosity. The writer also cites from researcher Susan Engel, author of The Hungry Mind, how curiosity drops like a stone as soon as students start school. Berliner also brought attention to how high performing student would be less curious because they didn’t want to effect their grade negatively. So the writer concludes that “Children should be prompted and encouraged to ask questions even though that can be challenging for the teacher “, quoted by Paul Howard Jones.
