That's a good question. I think that you're supposed to "develop" those strategies on your own as you attempt to resolve a problem, but i don't think that it works as well as everyone expects it to because when you're young you're always going to have something more interesting to do than some task that is associated with school (skewl sux1!!), meaning that instead of getting any meaningful result, you are going to attempt to accomplish the task as quickly as possible, so you can do what you want. The dilemma of the school system is: if you try to go by the book, provide as much knowledge as possible in the shortest amounts of time – you're going to have to resort to lots and lots of homework. That isn't going to be welcomed by many (because Billy read on the Internet that skewl is ackshually made so ur gonna work at like...uhhh factory and...and...uhhh...homework SUCKS). You could also abolish all the homework, resort to gamification, teach solely the basics (and don't forget da taxes (and who cares if taxation differs by the state/industry)) but at that point what would the point of school be then?
