Just Hilarious.....
Written FROM Asia......the Koreans say there is .....too much Standardized Testing....and too much emphasis on SCORES!!
In the U.S., Barack Obama and his Education Secretary speak glowingly of the enthusiasm South Korean parents have for educating their children, and they lament how far U.S. students are falling behind. ......
But the [Korea's] leaders worry that unless its rigid, hierarchical system starts to nurture more innovation, economic growth will stall — and fertility rates will continue to decline......
"but Koreans are not happy with it."
Just HILARIOUS!!!! in light of what is going on in the U.S. and THAT was all started ( by and large) by....Kennedy! "We are falling behind the RUSSIANS!!"
