So if we're saying that there's some sort of issue today with teaching, I think we have to ask what the issue with teaching was in '70s and '80s. Maybe it was the same one - rote learning - I know it was an issue in the '70s. Maybe the 1990s were a brief of oasis of actually teaching critical thinking? Getting off-topic though.</p></blockquote><p></p>
