Middle School Matters show

Summary: We discuss the education systems of China, the States, and India. Our conversation centers around a new video called, Two Million Minutes: A Global Examination. The video spotlights six high school students, two each from China, the United States and India. The video makes the case that students in China and India work harder, spend more time working on school work and take school much more seriously than their American counterparts. The video “sounds an alarm” about the educational system in America according to its producers. The video has its critics and supporters.
