Mix of formal classes and creative projects the best

Some people think that a formal approach to education is better than an informal one because it's more reliable and productive.

But formal classes involve passive learning. Students sit in rows and listen to the teachers, so they might become bored and lose focus.

With informal learning, students can sit in groups and discuss issues with their classmates.

I also think projects are better than exams. Exams test what a student can remember, but projects test what a student understands.

I believe informal learning is more beneficial to everyone.
