[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s always amusing when people post nostalgia for they way they were taught, as if those archaic methods were superior.[/quote]

Always amusing when we, as a country, are not doing our best to educate our children.  https://theamericanscholar.org/why-so-many-kids-struggle-to-learn/

Let’s follow the science, shall we? And not some nostalgic way of teaching teachers.[/quote]

Yup. We should model our educational strategies after those in countries that are outperforming our system. Finland is a good one to copy. [/quote]

They are probably outperforming us because they don't expect schools to solve social ills. Do they have a lot of childhood poverty in Finland? I doubt it.[/quote]

The kids are very well raised in Finland. They can read by the time they’re sent to school and they all know how to follow the rules and behave.

There’s a video on YouTube of a highly ranked teacher from Finland who goes to the UK to teach for a week in an urban school and is absolutely shocked by the low standards of the kids and their awful behavior. She said she’s never seen anything like it where she’s from.[/quote]
