La plus ca change

The more things change, the more it stays the same.

I recently saw this video from the 1940's on progressive education, and it seems very much that 60 years later we're still fighting the same battles. As David Warlick points out, Michael Wesch has another amazing video out about how the students in his first year Ethnography class.

More evidence that students have changed dramatically, but schooling has yet to keep up.
