If I was a student I would be pissed. How can you personalize education without actually reviewing students' assignments? Should students outsource their assignments as well? This angers me more than it should, but I deal with far too many

First line: "For a nation that once boasted the likes of Sony, Toyota and Mitsubishi as its entrepreneurial heralds" Well that's problem number 1, founding years: 1946, 1926/1937, and 1870.
