Today in SPED 200 Dr. Johnson was at a conference and we watched a documentary called The Finland Phenomenon: Inside the World’s Most Surprising School System. This documentary is about Finland's education system and why it ranks top in the nation.
While I was watching the documentary, I found myself hoping that what they are doing in Finland with education will help the United States improve their education system. It is a real concern for me, and I truly want our education system to improve, so we can move forward and compete globally with other countries. I did find the documentary to be interesting and enlightening and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in education reform in the United States.
