Will their efforts succeed? What’s the ‘Gold Standard’?

And the argument is that if a university degree is a good investment, it ought to be substantially more valuable than the opportunity cost. My argument is that the risk is too high, and the returns too low. We should never talk about access to jobs as if we live in an equal world. There are two key weaknesses to our argument.

For those not familiar, here are two education research terms that will be useful in making my argument. Scaffolding is the support provided by a learner to enable them to achieve some task or process which they might not be able to achieve without that support. Not everyone can achieve the goal without scaffolding.

Just as students who achieve in STEM fields are lauded for their “brilliance,” STEM teachers are often revered for teaching a subject area that many find to be unapproachable.

The Wolfram Language is important to LLMs—in providing a way to access computation and computational knowledge from within the LLM.

Sometimes textbooks will gloss over everything; sometimes they’ll give some kind of “common-sense-but-outside-of-physics argument”.
