Mark Pincus claims high schoolers learn more efficiently when homeschooled for semester

What was said

"My kids have homeschooled for the last semester. And they were missing the social, but they had so much more time. They told me they learned more. So the learning efficiency went way up and they had way more time for other things."

Zynga founder Mark Pincus reveals his children homeschooled for a semester and reported learning more efficiently than in traditional high school, despite missing social interaction. Pincus argues the current high school model feels like "the end of a 100-year cycle" and is inefficient, with students attending all day then receiving excessive homework. He advocates for more efficient learning combined with coding education and outdoor activities instead of passive screen time.
