Well, to use the Finns as an example, I would say no more so than any involved parent.\r\nWithout any statistics (aside from the Finns having the best students/schools) it strikes me as the same conceit behind the Prussian education system: if we force it in the child's head, they will magically be smarter.\r\nYes that is a strawman, but I'm being a little fast and loose.\r\nThoughts?","author":"4fe16df67f123b13e400003f"},{"id":"5321e0d86368721f93c90000","topic_id":"5161dd617f123bd25900013d","body":"What happened to the Kill La Kill Thread?
