Student Manifesto-The Power of Paying Kids to Learn proposes a new and bold education reform that includes:

Paying all youngsters attending school, college, and university. Adding a second teacher in every class from Kindergarten to high school. Creating a way to increase teachers' salaries and improve students' learning. Improving equity, comfort, confidence, safety, and happiness in school. Eliminating the need for student loans.

This expensive education reform would be financed without raising taxes. A new cryptocurrency would be created. The effects of such education reform would be felt at school, home, and all public interactions.

The ideas of Christian Aubert's Manifesto would significantly reform and transform education in the United States. We know our future lies in the hands of the younger generations. We must nurture the kids' abilities in effective problem-solving, forming and maintaining business relationships, personal financial management, and, ultimately, the pursuit of happiness. This book articulates the tenets of a new form of education that could achieve this in practice.

Moving from the traditional top-down solo teacher model to a two-teacher partnership model, such reform would instill empathy and communication skills in children from K to college. Aubert also proposes the payment of students, which would free graduates/families from crippling debt and stimulate the economy while giving students and employers a whole new angle to productivity. This reform is costed out in principle, unlike other published calls for reform.

Aubert champions the historic apprenticeship style of education in all academic and business fields, not just the trades. The apprentice-master dynamic supports social-emotional learning, and communication skills are honed over the years in primary and high school and on to college. Student Manifesto-The Power of Paying Kids to Learn is the book to read as an interested parent, an involved teacher, or a policymaker. It is never too late to instigate profound changes for the benefit of all.
