Why? You don't like cut and pasting? ok


This is one persons experience with the Asian educational system. I doubt we will become so regimented. I don't know if there is any real connection between her experiences and Obama's race to the top program.

I do agree with the statement by Professor Cizek, however. Overpraise and underachievement hasn't been good for our educational system. The only area we are still good at competition is in the area of sports, and that by it's very nature. I think we should up the anti a little as far as educational achievements but I do not really know how the Asian educational system relates to Obama's race to the top program.

I am reading about that right now.
