A separate subject
01/01/2010

Research by the Atkey organisation in the U.K. shows that the teaching of my thinking as a separate subject in schools raises performance in every other subject by between 30 and 100%. That is a very powerful effect. Parents who have children at school may want to ask the school (or even the Minister of Education) why their children cannot have this chance. Separate research in India shows that teaching this thinking improves performance in mathematics (also shown in Australia). There are a few schools teaching this thinking and even whole countries (like Venezuela) but things happen very slowly unless parents show an interest.
