The comment that the educational system is an assembly line for brains was great! While the current uniform system is fair, new techniques will need to be experimented with if the factory as a whole is to be upgraded... unfortunately, what happens to the student guinea pigs that were on the wrong side of an A/B experiment?

There is a great documentary called Class Dismissed that talks about a radical difference in teaching. I believe Alt-School in the bay area has adopted this format.
