The purpose of education in the United States is to dumb down students. American schoolchildren cannot describe the simplest physical law. Teachers are forced to give them "satisfactory" grades in order not to spoil the statistics and not to lose their jobs. Speaking of grades. How do you like this: 100-point grading system, and a schoolboy can not put below 70? All because school should be fun and interesting - learning can only bring pleasure. So there is no theory and practice in lessons - only games. Instead of understanding the principles of multiplication and division, children memorize algorithms and patterns. And American teachers, of course: they barely finished their bachelor's degree, hardly know their subject - they were not hired by a big company, so they went to school. No wonder their parents consider them "service personnel". Still think Soviet education was bad?
