Can I ask what does the picture mean - that teachers make students/pupils to think squarely? Or within the box and not out of it?

I'm very radical, with practically any social issue I see it that the only conversation in town really is we need a new social system. Like Russell Brand's talking about/resource-based economy/Jeremy Rifkin's creative commons/post-scarcity society - all variants on rethinking social organisation from a strictly logical standpoint, not through traditional party politics. I don't know what a post communist system would be like really. What I want to see is something more like communism/socialism done properly. I know this might seem a bit off topic to people but I just don't see educational reforms within capitalism working, any proposals of that nature always come off as patchwork rather than solutions. But as for NTW's approach, what about an NTW intranet! But then the question is is that needed if we already have the internet?
By the way when I say radical there's two meanings for that - one means extreme and the other means to pull something up by the root, that's the one I'm getting at.

I remember my friend Satish Kumar saying " we don't need Universities we need Diversities" Which I took to mean in the sort of 4th World way that we were discussing, less acute, focused, rigid study of one subject at that level but more of an inclusive take on arts and science that allows broader creative thinking.
Would a post capitalist education system look anything like a post communist education system?

I'm kind of shoehorning this but imagine education in a post-capitalist context:
'Radical new economic system will emerge from collapse of capitalism' - Jeremy Rifkin

On "scientist outshining arts students with experiments with creative writing" surely someone could find the counter article that shows how artists lead the way in creative scientific thinking.
I suppose some of Arts Catalyst's work with science and art would highlight this cross discipline success
