I don't like this kind of claim. Even calculation of 1+1 is math. To be constructive, instead of claiming what students learnt is not math (which actually is math), please articulate what you think needs to be added to high school math

It's not just Windows. Microsoft has a virus design team. Look what they did to visual studio. The new visual studio flat design (from 2012) is really awful. All caps in menu. No color in icons. Everybody hates those changes. Don'

I heard many young people try very hard to get an unpaid volunteer / intern job in UN headquarters. They need to pay their own rent and food out of their own pocket to work for UN for nothing. How crazy is this? UN must be libertarian!

Global inequality is nonsense. People only care about poverty and local inequality. Nobody in Africa worries about how rich Bill Gates is. Global inequality is a fake issue created by fake intellectuals.

The essence of the story is that liberals cannot wait for the progressive change in culture. Modern liberals do not believe progressivism, they believe extremism, revolutionarism. They want to destroy bad tradition as soon as possible. They

Watching the video. First I liked it..... Then I hated it. It's too much. I don't want that kind of life. I don't want Mother to watch at me everyday every moment.

Those are plausible reasons/theories for the claim, but not scientific evidence. In social science, it is not uncommon that plausible assumptions fail to obtain direct support from data.

Come on. Do you guys have any scientific evidence to support this kind of claim, i.e. learn to code improves your thinking ability in general? Don't treat your conventional assumption as a fact, this is a sign of weakness in your think

Well, the research studies only tell you: Raising a very little bit of the minimum wage reduces a very little bit of poverty in the short run, without discussing any negative impacts to the society (in the short run or in the long run). It

The author does not make any reference to the learning psychology when he talks about learning and teaching. He does not know and does not care how students learn. Most of what he said is nonsense, kind of postmodernism staff. For anybody w

Wow. Read the comments make me wondering why so many geeks are so incapable of thinking social issues. Do you guys have even a little bit of sense of human feeling? How come this is a good news? If the news says Chicago students love comput

Why are there so few male nurses? Why are there so few male elementary teachers? Why are there so many male soldiers? Why man and woman? Why homo sapiens cannot asexual reproduction? Is this where the evolution fails?

Obviously, 21 is a magic number, all the proposals in the article are simply based on "the 21st century". Because it is the 21st century, so freedom is free. Done.

If he really meant it, if he really cares about education of young Americans, he should try to fight with the sh*t teacher unions. Oh no, that's politics, don't go there. So just let politicians say nice things. Don't let the

The author is totally a moron. "By not providing full national data, China is in effect cheating." PISA only conducted their study in Shanghai, how can China provide full national data? By faking one?
