I know this is typical for the US so this is more for US people to respond to. I wouldn’t say that it is the best system for work, just wondering about the disconnect.

    I don’t think school should emulate work.

    Learning (well) isn’t easy, attention spans are limited and after some time you get rapidly diminishing results.

    I personally like the sound of inverting the structure we use for learning, meaning assigning the “theory” as homework and using class time to discuss or apply it afterwards.

    At least that has the benefit of letting every student manage their time, spending more time on harder (for them) subjects.
