The problem is also that a lot of uni/college studying for students is endless, (not always but often) unfun and almost ritualistic stream of homework essays of given topics, that you just have to do to pass, and many times you are also punishes for going outside the set box. It was this for me. This is just because the real point of isn’t to learn, or really prepare for working life or profession, or academic career it’s really to quantify the students learning for a purpose of a grade that leads to a degree. Essays are just the easy way to test handling of abstract ideas for a large amount of students. Then people whine that students now are tempted to turn to the magic talking box that can do the boring work for them.
