On education 2

- feedback

The point is not to fire ineffective teachers. Teaching is hard... you'd fire everyone. The point is to set up systems which reliably make teachers good. (reflecting on...)

Those systems can be discovered, monitored and maintained by honest thorough comprehensive data mining. Where we analyze data without unshakable hypotheses

- grit

But we do have one working hypothesis: that successful teaching is the successful teaching of perseverance.
