It was almost all anecdotes, with some vague platitudes around not shushing students, focusing on "teaching mechanics" etc. The US spends more per primary age pupil than all but a few countries (Switzerland, Norway & Austria, I believe) and yet our educational results continue to get worse. I see no reason for optimism that this will change, and this article told me nothing to make me change that outlook.
