Finland is currently in the process of trying something similar. The main criticism has been that it puts too much pressure on people too early. It works for some people but there are plenty of those who simply won't assign any homework to themselves or do any of the exercises. It's easy to get into the HN bubble and think almost everyone has above-average smarts and would've benefited from more, not less freedom in their formative years. But the fact is that huge swaths of population only go to school and do their school work because they have to. The approach has also been criticized for exacerbating the already-poor performance of boys in educational results, and I assume the same approach in the US would exacerbate the educational gap between racial groups. |
