John,
Unfortunatly, NCLB and other standardized test crap removes a lot of emphasis on the ability to think, and puts it on rote memorization.

By the time they get to the college level, they can't think and don't know %$%$%$%$ unless it was stuff they had to memorize.. The up side is it is sink or swim, we can try make them want to learn, but if they don't want to it is there (parents) dime...

Don't know the answer, thats why I don't work with people, just sediment
