Kindergarten becomes more challenging - chicagotribune.com
Now this is a very thought provoking article.
I can't side with either argument because both have merit. My own niece, and great nephew are testaments for this new learning approach. They can almost run a computer better then myself, which at times is scary. I also can understand the fear that such a curriculum may churn out a generation of robotic adults, that have few social skills, once unleashed upon the world.
But then again, we have the ilk of Beck, Palin, Limbaugh, and others that are classic failures in the social skills department. So go figure. I guess we will just have to wait 20 years for solid results.
