| Abstract: | The article offers the author's comments on some of the flaws in the U.S. school systems. He says that the solution for the desired higher standards and higher success rates is not more programs or more technology. It is systems thinking followed by a system transformation. According to him, the education system of 2008 cannot produce much more than it does now. He says that when schools add new programs, there is no systematic removal as each teacher withdraws whatever he or she desires. |
