What Happened To The Classroom Stories


Was remembering my student days (not so long ago)

Database class: "Suppose you want to open a bank account...."
Modeling class: "Lets see the process for opening a bank account..."
OOAD class: "A customer wants to open an account. for this use case...."
Java class: "There are two classes. A bank account class, and a customer class..."
Finance class: "When you open a bank account....."
System Architecture: "When you want to build a new banking system..."
Aint it boring.

Every classroom or textbook opens with the same example...

Why cant we get more creative in teaching???
Why do all professors use the same examples for every damn subject??

Cant we tell a good story????
