Education
Life is a test, and there is a formula for SUCCESS!
Everything in Logitopia is performed logically and mathematically to perfection, thereby illustrating one of the fundamental qualities of a perfect society.
The objective of the education system in Logitopia is to inculcate within its people, known as Logitopians, from an early age the concept of logic and mathematics so that they can actively contribute to this highly developed society. Logitopia assimilates their citizen’s contribution to further refine and enhance their
socio-economical system.
SCHOOLING LEVELS
There are four levels of schooling in this society, and a fifth and sixth level for the most intellectual Logitopians. The levels and order of schooling follow: “R” Division, “RU” Division, “RUB” Division, “RUBI” Division, “RUBIK” Division, and lastly, the “RUBIK Squared” Division.
LEVELS OF THE WORKFORCE
Similar to many other societies, the work one does depends on how much of Logitopian knowledge they have understood and mastered. Just like there are levels of schooling in Logitopia, there are levels within the workforce. After a child finishes every division, they must take a standardized test. These standardized tests cover a plethora of material, about six years of material. This test has an immense significance to the child’s education and their role as an active member of the workforce and society. Each test for every division is scored the exact same way. The maximum score one can receive on these tests is a 600, and passing for these exams is a 450. This is very hard to achieve, and every division loses at least 5 percent of its students after every test. Once a student fails a standardized examination, that is the end of their schooling, and they begin to work in the workforce, thus explaining the reason for the levels within the workforce.
Knowlege up to the R Division: menial labor
Knowledge up to the RU Division: basic functions (blue-collared jobs)
Knowledge up to the RUB Division: self-employed
Knowledge up to the RUBI Division: advanced functions (white-collared jobs)
Knowledge above and beyond mastery levels: RUBIX or RUBIX SQUARED: teachers and council members
"R" Level
-Ages 2 to 5
-This is the only level of schooling that is taught to kids via their parents.
-Basic math, incorporating everything from counting numbers to the beginning of pre-algebra and basics of Loglish, the national language of Logitopia.
"RU" Level
-Ages 6 to 12
-Here kids learn the next major portion of math: prealgebra and algebra.
"RUB" Level
-Ages 12 to 18
-This level centers on geometry and trigonometry, in very intricate details.
"RUBI" Level
-Young adults 19-24.
-Algebra 2, in a very unique aspect.
-Very low passing rate on this standardized examination
"RUBIX" Level
-Ages 25-30
-Focus on becoming professionals in the field of logic and math
-15% of the population qualify into the Rubik Level
"RUBIX SQUARED" Level
-Ages 31- 36
-Focus on becoming professionals in the fields of logic and math.
-Most prestigious and highly revered program, since only 10% of the population qualify for this program
Education plays a very crucial role in the society, is very rigorous, and requires constant pondering, extraneous thinking, and detailed mathematical analysis of concepts with major emphasis on logic. Loglish the national language of Logitopia. There is no literary aspect to Loglish. It is structured in such a way that it can be used both for programming and communication. Other core subjects are taught in school as well, but only in conjunction with math. History class is centered on the History of Math, where students learn how math has evolved over the past millennia. All science subjects are taught and treated as derivative of applied mathematics. Extracurricular activities are based on mathematics and logics as well such as chess, puzzles and card games.
OUTLIERS
Children who do not have parents are guided by teachers who have completed the Rubik Squared Level.
There are also rebellious people in this society who do wish to conform to the regulation of the education system, and purposely fail standardized tests. They are commonly known as “Undefineds”. Corrective actions are taken on such citizens by reemphasizing the importance of logical reasoning, processing and analyzing. If they don’t exhibit improvement, they are quarantined from the society.
