It is so weird that schools cannot provide problem-solving-oriented and project-based instruction on ALL subjects.

Perhaps with different levels of challenge, so that students could pick a challenging course, say, in math and latin, and a slightly easier one in physics and literature, according to their interests.

[b]The notion that STEM and Humanities need to be separated has been debunked decades ago.[/b] There are so many that excel in both, since the best students are the creative/critical thinking ones, and those are skills needed for all subjects.

Having challenging courses shouldn't mean a ton of homework either!

Getting off soapbox now.

- scientist, who knows we need problem-solvers instead of formula-appliers.

DC got a dual degree - BA in English and BS in Engineering - and is very close to getting his PhD in engineering from MIT. It is definitely possible for some kids. [/quote]
