School system’s failure to teach logical thinking linked to low PISA scores ACADEMICS HAVE called for a major reform in Thailand’s education system and blame students’ low scores in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) on the system’s failure to encourage logical thinking. Thailand Research Fund (TRF) discussed the bad performance at a press conference after research exposed problems in the current curriculum as well as considerable disparity driven by financial status. The 2015 PISA academic evaluation scores, disclosed earlier this month, showed the academic performance of Thai students was far behind their peers from neighbouring countries such as Singapore and Vietnam. Thai students only ranked 54th in science and maths and 57th in reading out of 70 countries. www.nationmultimedia.com/news/national/30302058 |

Using Thai and logical thinking should never be used in the same sentence

Using Thai and logical thinking should never be used in the same sentence I think the most amusing part is that the academics who say the system is a failure are the products of that same system...got to be some irony in that, ergo their asessment and conclusions must be illogical as they were not taught logical thinking Confused ? you soon will be  |

So if they're calling the system a failure, but they're products of that system and incapable of logical thought, then they're wrong, so the system is fine, which means they are capable of logical thought, which means they're right, so the system is a failure, but they're products of that system and incapable of logical thought, so they're wrong, so the system must be fine, which means they are capable of logical thought, which means they're right, so the system is a failure...
I'm going for a lie down.

Actually, for me they rank first for a lot of things, but this is probably not the thread to mention them.
