You cant balance yourself even after holding this...
Whats the problem?
This doesn't give you feel of stability when you hold it. You still move even if you hold this.
Where do you find these?
In all Public transport (Buses, Mrt in singapore).
What is the solution?
I found one design in malaysia (I do not have picture though), they have a rod coming down which is stable. But, there is a chance people might get hurt.
School education needs to change (no should be revolution), to see better future...
Here are two amazing talks by "Sir Ken Robinson". This was his first talk from 2006.
Here is latest talk (march 2010) where he started from where he stopped in his previous talk.
This whole thing can only be possible by making people (each and every one) understand what is going wrong in the way they understand.
Why is it so hard
I think we started to believe that it is the right way education should be. And we are going as far that we start preparing children for college when they are in sixth standard even earlier!
So, I think what Ken Robinson is saying is right ; we need revolution not change (is not enough).

Maths teaching needs make over..
I always used to wonder sitting in maths class, how/where am I going to use this? Ask teachers, No response some times used to get scolding!
I read few books recently like Blink, author follows with story to explain a point. This is very easy to relate. He created context for what he was saying.
Then why cant maths classes be like!
