[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 690900, member: 11791"] THAT is what went wrong. Schools stopped teaching HOW to learn, and instead, started pushing specific knowledge. Standardization and testing made the focus on content, not on process. And so, we create kids who can spout off all sorts of random trivia... and don't know HOW to learn. And it doesn't matter if they are special needs, or not. In some ways, the special needs kids who are getting help, are also getting help in HOW to learn, because it's obviously the only answer that will work. But... every kid needs that. [/QUOTE]
