[quote=Anonymous]My kids did well in college and are very accomplished by Gen Z standards but put them in my 1980s college classes and they would have struggled mightily. Too much reading for them to handle, actual problems to solve, instead of multiple choice tests with obvious answers. Sure kids specialize earlier now, memorize facts and figures, but often lack critical thinking skills and resilience. Like it or not standards have fallen. When everyone gets an A it is not because everyone is outstanding it is because the bar is too low to allow meaningful differentiation. [/quote]
