Children seem to be leaving school ignorant of some of the building blocks of education....arithmetic, spelling, history, geography. The excuse which we are given is that they are taught differently.....you don't have to know what 9 x 6 is equal to, or what is the capital of Austria.
My question is......what have they learned that previous generations did not? What academic knowledge do they have that previous generations have to consult THEM on? (other than how to download to an i-Pod).
