Do you want to see an amazing video editing job by a 16-year-old homeschooler from North Carolina? Dylan of “Dylan’s Madness” captures ski jumpers having the epitome of xtreme fun.

He choreographs each move, shifts to ultra-slow motion and synchs young, upbeat music to the skier’s every move. How on earth he edited this in less than 5 hours is beyond me.

Cool stuff. Enjoy.

Have you ever tried to explain to someone that homeschoolers score better on college placement tests?

You are so right. Homeschoolers generally score much higher on standardized academic tests. And they usually speand about 3 hours a day in ‘school’ compared to 8 hours in the drug-infested, metal detector-required public schools, devoid of morals and discipline.

“How on earth he edited this in less than 5 hours is beyond me.”

The link goes to a 47 second video. I could see that taking considerably less than 5 hours to edit.

A publik skool kid goes to school 8 hours a day.
Subtract 30 minutes for lunch.
Subtract 10 minutes for every class change x 6 classes = 60 minutes.

7 classes of 50 minutes.
Each teacher spends 30 minutes of material presentation, leaving 20 minutes. Each teacher has about 25 students.
Leaving less than 1 minute of individualized attention for each student per teacher, per day.

And that's in a GOOD school, in ideal conditions.

The teacher has a curriculum to follow and a time frame. How does a child who might have a little problem keep up?

Home schoolers are taught the truth based on facts or history.

Public school kids are captives to ideologues teaching opinion and propaganda.

Parents aren't inclined to lie.
