Base most high school/collage physics classes off the Feynman lectures at Caltech (with modern updates of course). In math, try to eliminate the new philosophy going around that real world examples are bad, and you should understand math without them. While at some point, you will have to throw them away to advance further, why throw away a useful tool from the start?

Depends entirely on what the community/government wants. The current system (if we're talking US here) is a mishmash of ideas with no clear direction or a legitimate end game. You are basically pointing a gun to kids telling them to attend school until their 18th birthday and figure life out afterwards. In the meantime you are rolling the dice on their parents having some sensibility to help them decide what to do afterwards.

The first step to revolutionizing education is to create a system that helps kids manifest and optimize their own desires/talents. Instead of trying to compete for the highest scholastic marks which most couldn't give a rats ass about.

Abolish the public schooling system. You can have your own private schools if you want, I don't care, but public education has got out of hand. For literally all of human history (until 100 years ago) parents raised their children, but now we've completely flipped that around, the government raises your children (with daycare, schools, after school activities, college) and parents just feed and water their children. It's sickening. Public schools only came about because small communities took pity on the families who, for one reason or another, couldn't teach their children at home, so they set up small schools for kids from multiple families.

This has lead to homes becoming glorified condos, where parents are children are almost entirely segregated into their own rooms. Children are closer to their friends than they are to their parents and siblings. This has the effect of delaying maturity; instead of Dad teaching you how to be a man, you just run around with your pack of friends until...what exactly? You leave high school, or even college? So now we have 25-30y/o boys in men's bodies. They never grew up, it's sad. Men as young as 15 used to lead other men into naval battles, but now we have boys in their 20s who's major daily struggles involve what colour jeans to wear on a given day.

Tl;dr: the public education system is cancer and has to go.

Then I would say that's more an issue with teacher oversight. I took all of those classes and felt unironically enriched by them, especially, speaking of, my creative writing course. It was laid bad and relaxing, while not being just a throwaway class. I legitimately got a lot of writing confidence by reading my writing out loud to the class for discussion. However I will mention writing was already a passion of mine, so of course I'm a bit biased there. It's definitely all on how the teachers are.

I'll tell you. Turn the focus completely onto epistemology, critical thinking, forms of valid
inference and basic proof-making/problem solving in fundamental math and physics.
No introduction to history, politics, economics, social sciences or unsubstantiated physical
sciences--anything "opinionated"--until this very important groundwork is laid down. Otherwise,
education remains nothing more than a pile of random anecdotal garbage thrown at students until they
can pass a test.

Second, abolish testing. It is stressful for students, makes learning for its own sake pointless, and is not revealing of talent or genuine competency.

Third, individualize learning. Few students should have to attend classes or lectures. Some are more hands-on; others prefer to read, watch videos or have conversations. It should not be that hard or expensive to tailor education for each student.

>Jobs higher not based on "degree" qualifications, but based on job-specific achievement profiles. You may only be at 2nd level in art, but if you're 15th level in math you can go work for SpaceX or whatever.
>After 6th grade, you decide if you're interested in going the "academic" route or the "trade" route. If you pick trade, you immediately begin spending at least half of your school time learning trades of your choice and eventually shadowing/apprenticing real trade workers.
>Teachers start getting paid more, and are held to higher standards.

I have a lot more but that's my dream system. Teachers waste SO MUCH time and effort trying to educate kids who are frankly just dumb and academically hopeless, and who don't even want to be learning what you're teaching.

>or worse have the skills necessary
This is unfortunately a reality. I'm probably the smartest teacher at my school, and I'm just kind-of smart.
Once I made up a fun challenge problem for my AP Physics students: to determine the radius of a planet made entirely of Osmium metal whose gravitational field strength at its surface was the same as Earth's. Another science teacher, who actually used to teach physics, saw the problem and decided he wanted to try and solve it. He spent literally all day working on it, didn't teach shit that day, and eventually (with a few hints...) came to the answer via the most roundabout method conceivable.
The next day, proud of having "solved" it, he took it around to all the other math / sci teachers - not a single one of them could solve it, or even begin to make any attempt at a solution. It takes all of about 2 minutes to solve if you have basic algebra skills and all the equations are sitting right there in front of you. Rant over.

Make it freely available, and more importantly, figure out a way to distribute it. 95% of the material is already freely accessible online, most of the work is in composing curricula by aggregating this material. stackexchange fills the teacher void, whenever a student has a question just go there. teachers unions will put up a fight though

>The first step to revolutionizing education is to create a system that helps kids manifest and optimize their own desires/talents. Instead of trying to compete for the highest scholastic marks which most couldn't give a rats ass about.

This is hippie empty rhetoric, because kids have no clue what they want to do and moreover what is a realistic expectation. You want them to make an educated choice? You need to give them knowledge.

The real problem is that methods of teaching are antique, putting 30 kids in a room with an often mediocre adult writing stuff on a blackboard is middle age tier. Today we know a lot about the neuropsychology of learning yet there is 0 use of self-learning, spaced repetition, chunking, loci method, etc... in school while these methods should be taught FIRST YEAR of school.
I'm convinced the average kid could have 4-5 times more knowledge by the time he is out of school and this knowledge would be much more solidified.

This is very true. Everyone talks about teaching kids all sorts of stuff and wonder when a 5 years old can do highschool math, but nobody ever consider that the first thing everyone should be taught is how to fucking learn in the first place.
I study in one of the best universities of my country and boy i was surprised when i saw how many people just don't know how to approach studying in the first place.
I have seen many talented students suffer because since they were little nobody taught them to develop proper study habits, only a "if you can't learn this in 1 hour then force yourself to repeat it for 3 hours" philosophy so they just smash their heads at the classic textbooks, even when searching an alternative such as a some 5 minute animation from Youtube or some less convoluted diagram from google images could help them absorb the material a lot easier. For a minority it comes naturally but most won't really apply it unless you give them some guidance first, that's what school should be for - when they get to university it's harder to fix.

His teaching methods are down to earth, but he still covers difficult material. He is also explains math formulas and large numbers in a way that gives you some intuition about the math. ie double the distant from a planet, and the force is gravity by a forth, if an apple was the size of the earth, then it's atoms would be the size of an apple.

I would create state sponsored learning modular system which could freely be done online for education credits/certifications.
The structure would have suggested paths based on many factors, along with a complex interconnections so people can branch their studies. Some major factors I can think of are
- learning types, as not everyone learns the same way
- learning objectives, what are they trying to get out of it (i.e. understanding, fun challenge, career, money, ...)
- civil demand, publicly known preference formula to help balance study demand at large (i.e. support other subjects so society's job market doesn't get flooded a few year later with everyone jumping on the next skill bubble, then busting with collapsed wages.)
- knowledge type, focus on applied knowledge (get things done) vs fundamental knowledge (know how things work) vs discovery

The goal is to allow people to learn what they want and help them find way to apply that knowledge so they can improve themselves and society. There would also be several required sections to insure everyone has the minimum skill set, similar to high school but with more flexible learning options. An army of support educators would be active to keep it all running, and in class and hands on units would be available or even required in relevant cases that can't be automated. Limited high level target certifications would be done by public matches based on merits, and

Additional social supports for social skills development would be pushed by a parallel system involving a mix of sports, rec classes, online gaming, and other routes to help people build social skills needed.

The whole point of all this is to enable people to build their own education which also meets the needs of the society, so we get the most win-win outcomes. People would make informed compromises based on demand data so they could balance their interests with lifestyle goals.

>This is hippie empty rhetoric, because kids have no clue what they want to do

As opposed to what? Continuing this sham of a rat race between peers and other countries for higher test scores every year? It's much more reasonable to focus on helping kids manifest and optimize their own wants and needs so they don't have to depend on financial incentives to satisfy them.

>and moreover what is a realistic expectation.

The realistic expectation is that despite jumping through hoops for nearly two decades, 95% of the student body every year are going to eventually work jobs they don't like and be underpaid because the job market can't support everyone working +80k jobs. And before you say it's because said 95% aren't working hard enough, it wouldn't matter if they did because there just isn't enough slots at the upper tax brackets for people to do this. Someone has to be the clerk, cashier or janitor...at least until automation catches up and takes it from them.

>You want them to make an educated choice? You need to give them knowledge.

They can already be told what the ""educated choice"" is already though. After graduating high school, they join a military branch, get assigned/work a spot the asvab gives them for +4 years, either stay for 20 years to get full retirement/ benefits and/or apply for a STEM degree and let the government pay for it. Then do private contracting for the highest pay possible. That's the "educated choice" because that's what cuts through all the bullshit. The problem is everyone can't do this because perks such as government paying for college exist to entice people to join since the majority doesn't. The moment the majority does is the moment those perks go away.

Giving them "knowledge" of all this basically let's them know the system is effectively rigged from the start for most who join. Thus why it's better to focus on the children's desires and talents so they won't prioritize monetary rewards they probably won't get.
