I am not sure of what point you are making. Which "these MB classes"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chadamus Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I take it as: As much as some bash the "classroom" approach to teaching a Merit Badge (Cooking & Personal Finance for example) at least basic skills are being taught. Which are apparently lacking for many adults. Maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Flagg Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 One of the many reasons to get rid of MB "colleges". You simply cannot show, demonstrate, explain, etc., effectively in a group of 30 people. Was at one of these large group classes for Cit in the Nation a while back. 30+ kids. MBC says, "You cannot get credit unless you participate." So he asks, "What was the purpose of the American Revolution?" Then goes around the room. The entire room. All 30+ kids asking them the question. Each kid parroted back the exact same response...or in some cases worded differently but with the same meaning. #wasteoftime, #learningnothing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in IT and even I have a limit to what I will keep track of. Can't for the life of me understand the reason for hast tags or Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentinel947 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I'm in IT and even I have a limit to what I will keep track of. Can't for the life of me understand the reason for hast tags or Twitter. Hashtags help twitter associate similiar tweets. More or less the hashtags let you make your post likely to pop up if somebody is searching for or posting under a similiar hashtag.

These tags allow someone to follow a tag and not just a person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't get why something like that is necessary. I don't "get" Twitter. I couldn't care less that you are in line at Starbucks and someone cut in front of you, or that you think a certain cat video is cool. No offense, but no one is THAT interesting.

T2Eagle Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I can't think of ANYTHING that requires a hash tag. I disagree, when confronted with a variety of hashes I like to have tags so I know whether I am choosing the corned beef, ham, or vegetarian. This is especially important if I am going for seconds and want to narrow my selections. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
