The news of education

I find news in the next page:

http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/feb/15/us-education-reform-lessons-from-finland

The news talk about a book, called Finnish Lessons: What Can the World Learn From Educational Change in Finland?

Then the text compares the education of USA with Finnish education with the result of PISA assessment, because Finland gets the first place in science and second in reading, while USA get 17^th in science and 12^th in reading.

So the news compare the number of teachers in New York City and Finland and say that it´s the same number but the students are more in USA than Finland.

After compare the percent of student that graduate from high school and the percent of the students that are accepted to college, and say that the percent is higher than USA.

Then, the news talks about the politics produced by the Presidents Bush and Obama about education.

And finally, the news talks about the education actually in USA and the new decisions of the matter for example the creation of a school that help students with habits, knowledge and skills of this new century. And express the priority for the educational program for children for prepares to read, write, etc.

I choose this news because is about of education and I am studying education. So the text reflects the good numbers of the education of Finland and compares with other country “industrialized” as USA, which has numbers lower than Finland.   

I think that this news is very interesting.
