What Makes Finnish Kids So Smart?
Written by Skip on February 29th, 2008That’s not my title. It’s from this article in the Wall Street Journal. Read it right now. There is much food for thought here. Not mentioned in the article is the fact that Finland is the most wired country in the world with very high bandwidth Internet access available in every home. (If you thought Nokia was a Japanese company, you’re wrong. It’s Finnish.)

Wow, that is a weird article. I loved the part with the school administrator stating they are aware of more American style parenting in regards to parents asking for more rigid schooling for their children. I find it interesting too that they are using less technology than what was assumed.
