<p>I totally agree with comfortablycurt up there. I think if we want to get somewhere we have to stop holding everyone to the same standards. Humans are naturally diverse as a whole. Treating students all the same isn’t going to get kids very far. For example, look at the approach tutoring companies take. Majority (if not all) usually tell you that they’re the best because they identify where the students problem lies and work up from there. That way you can ensure that your student will understand everything. Why can’t we take the same approach with public schooling?</p>
<p>Oh, and something to watch about education: Ken Robinson’s talk at TED about education. Very insightful and funny too :)</p>
