tippy: unbound: Westport's Big Opportunity: Step One

tippy: unbound: Westport's Big Opportunity: Step One: "At the same time, we weep over the increasing distance in our educational system relative to the much-lauded Finland, which is going in a diametrically opposite direction in nearly every reform category. Finland beats us in test scores and yet spends no time at all preparing students for standardized tests and doesn't track its students' progress with them. Finland also doesn't improve its teachers and schools punitively by tying their salaries and funding to test scores; instead, it recruits top academic performers and then gives them the freedom to teach well."
