[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are also more kids especially more global competition [/quote] +1 More Asian kids (I'm Asian btw). Still, my kids were challenged a lot more than I was (even with grade inflation). Their school had tons of AP/IB classes. My HS had four.[/quote] This is totally true. We used to spend hours researching things llle what is the capital of X and what are its main export products, blah blah. Drive to library, find the world book, look it up, etc. They can have that answer in two seconds. It does open up doors for them to just learn more. I was advanced and took th Spanish AP in 12th grade and calc BC in 12th, U.S. history in 11th. My kids took us history in 10th, calculus in 11tj grade, took th ap Spanish test as sophomore etc. with all the tech kids can learn more more quickly. I think they are reading fewer books and writing fewer book report type essays but are learning a ton of other stuff I never did. [/quote]
