[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a lie that 20 years ago students were reading the whole book. This is NOT new. Professors are the newest victim class. [/quote] Cliff Notes were invented in 1958. So, seems like kids haven't been reading the whole book for over 60 years.[/quote] ^^^ this and even those who "read the book" skim 60% of it. [/quote] The rigorous schools have always been able to control for this level of reading. I went to a rigorous HS and nobody who used Cliff Notes passed the honors classes. This is also true today but in fewer high schools. [/quote]
