[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Singapore still uses paper textbooks and lots of paper worksheets.  Teaching style there is very traditional.  Their PISA scores are far far higher than the US and have been for many years.  [/quote]

Textbooks or not, its easy to white wash history.[/quote]

What is it called when minor black historical figures are elevated to a large portion of the content, and the sins of Europeans are the main focus?[/quote]

Revisionism, which is rife in our academia right now, including K-12.  The Atlantic has a good article yesterday about how these schools no longer teaching students how to think, but what to think.  The worst is how hypocritical they are. [/quote]
