Title: Dumber today, then yesterday.
Post by MnSpring on 03/26/26 at 16:51:26

Here could be a reason the UL, FDS, WOKE DFI Socialists, LIE over and over and over.

The younger people will BELIEVE the out and LIES.
Because they do not have the ability to,
and have not been taught,
how to THINK for themselves.

"...In January 2026, neuroscientist Jared Cooney Horvath testified before the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. His message was clear: “Our kids are less cognitively capable than we were at their age.”

"...What the data actually says is that measured skills like reading comprehension, math performance, sustained attention, and writing quality may be slipping or not improving. It also suggests that a heavy, poorly controlled digital environment can make it harder to learn and retain what the school is trying to teach..."

"...Average high school GPAs have risen nearly half a letter grade over the past four decades, even as standardized test scores decline. The divergence screams inflation: teachers awarding higher grades for the same or lesser performance..."

"The study, a working paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research, distinguishes two forms of leniency. When teachers inflate grades across the board—giving higher marks than students’ actual performance warrants—the effects ripple far beyond the classroom."

"The switch to remote school, along with the trauma and upheaval of living through a global health emergency in which more than a million Americans died, dealt a major blow to students’ learning. Scores on one set of national tests, released in September 2022, dropped to historic lows, reversing two decades of progress in reading and math, the New York Times reported."

"There’s no way to sugarcoat it: Americans have been getting dumber.
Across a wide range of national and international tests, grade levels and subject areas, American achievement scores peaked about a decade ago and have been falling ever since"

"Test scores have steadily declined while other countries surge ahead in global rankings."

"Since the 1970s, states have steadily lowered academic standards to boost graduation rates. Oregon’s 2021 decision to suspend essential skills requirements through 2028 exemplifies this troubling pattern nationwide. Schools now focus primarily on getting students through the system rather than ensuring they master crucial concepts. This fundamental shift values completion certificates over actual knowledge, setting students up for future struggles."

"The material students study today pales compared to what previous generations tackled. The Fordham Institute found 8th-grade math textbooks from 1890 contained more advanced content than current high school math books. Modern textbooks have systematically simplified challenging concepts to make them more accessible. Students miss crucial opportunities to develop critical thinking skills because their curriculum lacks necessary depth and complexity."

Now, read this AGAIN !!!!!!!, " teachers awarding higher grades for the same or lesser performance.

Perfect field to grow a crop of Socialist Communists.
NO FREEDOM of speech !!!!!!
Just do/say,
what, YOU ARE TOLD TO DO/SAY !

Just like the UK,
