The story of a born Sebiestor fisherman in search for the mystical land of Mikramurka and chased all around by ruthless Brutor bikers ?

Ardishapur educational reforms showing initial strong results

Digging this one.   

[Nicoletta Mithra]

So do I! That#s the kind of news Amarr needs! <3 <3 <3

[Esna Pitoojee]

I've poked Falcon to see who Amarr people would want to talk to about this news.

[Nicoletta Mithra]

keep me posted on that!

[Lyn Farel]

What annoys me is that we know very little on what this reform consists of exactly. I can't seriously start debating about it if the only things the news say is "The reform shows good results".

Well, ok, sure. Good results based on which criterias ?

[Esna Pitoojee]

Exactly why I poked Falcon looking for a contact. 

[Louella Dougans]

i feel like I should have an opinion about the schools thing, what with my whole thing in the fiction forum about Louella's school.

but i haven't thought of anything to say

[Lunarisse Aspenstar]

I am curious as well as to what standards are used to judge the success of the curriculum.  Like this line "The new curriculum, on the other hand, forces students to engage their minds and think deeply on Scripture and service." could be read very differently depending on the how and what of the analysis.

[Aldrith Shutaq]

I knida feel like the Ardishapur end of the Amarr Arc should have progressed a little slower. It's been only two months since he announced he was making the reforms and now already they are being praised as a success? I think realistically one month would not have even been long enough to plan them all out, let alone to begin to implement them. Oh well...

[Karmilla Strife]

Good news, though it does seem a bit rushed like Aldy said. I don't think 2 months is enough to break students out of habits from a lifetime of rote learning and suddenly they have critical thinking and problem solving skills.

Also Louella, I think your story may more accurately reflect a private education, where as this arc seems to be more geared toward public education. Louella's school is for fine Amarrian ladies not ACS bureaucrats.

[Lyn Farel]

ACS bureaucrats...

Mhh, playing an ACS bureaucrat character. So much appeal 

[Nicoletta Mithra]

Realistically, changes to education system really show only after years or decades, yes. That would make for a damn long arc, though...

This. There's a point in which realism has to meet fun.
