teach less, learn more

can somebody please come up with better slogans already?
"teach less learn more" makes some sense but it really conveys the wrong message. do we really want our teachers to be teaching less?? does teaching less equate learning more? i mean they always talk about the main objective of education as stretching every individual's potential to be who they are, as people who can live meaningful lives and be part of society. that's the whole idea, i'm guessing, behind the whole "teach less learn more" shpeel, and opening a sports school and an arts school and making "mother tongue" easier, and even teaching creativity, but seriously all that slogan connotes is laxness. maybe it's just me though, but there is something inherently wrong about putting the cause and effect next to each other and then counterbalancing their measured values. seems to me that it has more to do with depth of understanding versus breadth of knowledge. i don't think any less teaching is being done at all when syllabi are cut, that much i am sure of. that's like saying that accountants have less to do when the company takes fewer clients, even though these clients are bigger and more demanding. the only line i can think of is 'probing minds to probe'.
hahaha, maybe i should be an official propagandist. ah the power of words.
well i want to know what's going on in education these days. maximising potentials, what a jelly, noodly thing.
