Saber Tooth Curriculum

In the time of necessity vs. schooling New Fist was really thinking ahead. While he was planning and doing what the community has been doing for years, he was reflective in the preparation and where it would take him in the future.
There has been little change in the attitudes towards change from the time of New Fist to the fast-paced times of today. When he mentioned "glimpses of a vision", I immediately thought of everyone in education who begins with a vision, but is afraid to implement things. Although our curricula may have a tendency towards the trade industry, it is only through bookwork and perseverance that scholars believe are the true openers. I think of the saber-tooth satire as having many facets of educational enhancement. The first thing that comes to mind is the student and being prepared for college. How many of the college courses are relevant to the career of the individual. College will only enhance the preparation and dedication that individuals need to succeed in the real world. The proof of the results is the diploma.
No matter how astute and keen our educational tools are, only new and improved techniques can be successful. A person can be an excellent note-taker, but it is only through the use of technology that things can expedited.
