What is I.H.I.P.?

What is I.H.I.P.?  It stands for INDIVIDUALIZED HOME INSTRUCTION PLAN.
This is the document which is supposed to be written out for the state to accept your home-schooling life.  This document contains the child's (or student's) subjects, curriculum, and syllabus.

I think we all know what is the definition of "subject".  It's the general word describing the thing/object of interest. What's our subject?  It could be reading, writing, arithmetic, health, geography, etc.

But what is curriculum?  And syllabus?

cur·ric·u·lum
[kəˈrikyələm]
NOUN

  1. the subjects comprising a course of study in a school or college.
    synonyms: syllabus · course of study/studies · program of study/studies · educational program · subjects · modules · timetable · schedule
     
syl·la·bus
[ˈsiləbəs]
NOUN

  1. an outline of the subjects in a course of study or teaching.
    "there isn't time to cover the syllabus" ·
    [more]
    synonyms: curriculum · course · course of study · program of study ·
    [more]
  2. (in the Roman Catholic Church) a summary of points decided by papal decree regarding heretical doctrines or practices.
     

So these two terms are basically synonyms!! They are essentially the same.

We also believe that the "articial intelligence" within the computers  (a.k.a. A.I.) will never be better than the human being.  Certainly not better than our true potential; and that is what we should be reaching, not for the lowest common denominator of life.  The lowest common denominator of the human scale would be people who depend on technology and computers to do everything for them.  In other words, they can't think for themselves.  We are not that way! Let's use our brains and think about it!! The BRAIN is a "terrible thing to waste". We accept technology and we use it....
