As a parent of a school-age child, I hate studies like this. It's exactly the sort of thing that leads to mandated programs like common core.
Here's the thing, my son spends more time doing homework and studying for tests in elementary school than I ever did throughout my entire public education.
I have worked internationally. From my own anecdotal experience, I didn't see a difference in intelligence or ability to do the job between cultures.
- novaleaf 11y agomy anecdote: I have seen a huge difference in ability (of developers). I think it's more due to geopolitical differences though, not just education.
