New Insights and their Implications

Before this class I knew that the US as a country needed to help and improve our school systems, but I did not realize that we needed as mush help and improvement like we do. Barely touching base on something in math or another subject then trying to move on (expecially when you have to build on it) is hard to accomplish and that is probably one of the reasons we such low test scores and improvement in our classrooms compared to some of the other countries. We need to be diving into deeper meaning in our content. Instead of assigning a lot of problems to a student we should only do a few and pick them apart more than try more problems to review and make sure we have the concept down. Instead of doing a chapter a day we should focus on a chapter a week and make sure the transition from one to the other is clear.
