I Take A Gramme!

In this video the creator's ideas of education were quite similar to ideas expressed in A Brave New World. He noticed that our educational system resembles manufacturing plants. Where the students are grouped, determined by ages, instead of skills. So we are supplied to the economy in spurts, all similar ages, and then we do what we will to earn money and find happiness. This is much like the novel we are reading now. All of the 'children' are literally created, and their lives are planned before they even speak. The thoughts in their heads are also pre-determined for the most part. They are classically conditioned to believe certain things, and it is to such a large degree that they repeat them and use them as conversation. All of the repeated phrases while they were sleeping were ingrained into the brains of all the people, and would leak out when they were supposed to. For example; they were 'raised' not to think of the future or past. " 'Was and will make me ill,' she quoted, 'I take a gramme and only am' " (Page 104). Which is almost the opposite of our society today. We are supposed to look at our past and learn by our mistakes, obviously focus on the present and be concerned with out own happenings and those of others, as well as focused on our current wok. And then, almost most importantly in most situations is our grasp of the future, and our hopes and goals. We always work hoping that it benefits us later. Leading to success. But in the novel the people are not given that opportunity because they are born into classes without fluidity between them. But I guess you are content with what you have, which makes it so change isnt desired. But deep down it is, they are just conditioned to feel lucky to be in their conditions. Hm.
