    So much this.

    People want more “real world usage” in college and school overall. Teach kids how to do taxes, teach engineers how to use X and Y software.

    Well, in 10 years there’s a new software that does your taxes in another way, and plenty of laws have changed and there are new stuff to consider. And those software the engineers were taught, they are obsolete.

    That’s why focus should be on getting people to a place where they themselves can acquire the skills needed to do those things by themselves.
