Education Today
Education today isn’t quiet what I would like it to be; although it is improving if I was in power I think I would make a few changes.

But the school system is improving, most of the classes are backing away from the old style of just lecture and memorization and are starting to move toward more group work and open discussions. This gets the students involved and more interested in what is going on in the class, instead of sitting and watching the clock waiting for the heavenly sound of the bell.
