I HAVE SEARCHED THAT COUNTRIES LIKE USA, UK, FRANCE etc. HAVE HIGHEST LITERACY RATE i.e 99.99%?

Misty Vagle: I taught myself.

Catheryn Barringer: The developed countries have high literacy rates, but no country in the world has a 99.99% literacy rate.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_...I don't know why Georgia is listed at 100%. It's simply not true. Every country has its share of mentally retarded individuals who are unable to learn. Many of the numbers on the table are suspiciously high. I'll bet a lot of countries inflate their numbers to impress other countries.Secondary schools in the US are divided into three levels: Elementary School (Kindergarden through Grade 5), Middle School (Grades 6 to 8), and High School (Grades 9 to 12).Typical school classrooms in secondary school have around 25-35 students.Most schools in the US are not particularly high-tech. The teacher will write things on an erasable white board. Most classrooms have a television but teachers seldom use them. Most classrooms have at least a few computers, but again! , most teachers don't make much use of them. Many Middle and High Schools have a Computer Lab with 20-40 computers. Teachers bring their classes there for lessons that require computers. Most secondary students have computers at home and are very computer-literate and aware of the latest trends in electronics.You can get information on specific US secondary schools athttp://www.greatschools.orgUniversities are divided into Undergraduate (the first four years of college) and Graduate School (Masters and Ph.d programs). The first two years of undergraduate school are considered Lower Division. The last two, Upper Division. Lower division classes at big universities can be enormous. Huge lecture halls with hundreds of students. Classes are much smaller at small colleges and in Upper Division classes. Many of my upper division classes had from 8 to 12 students. Graduate level classes are seldom larger than 12 students.You can get information on US colleges and univers! ities using the links on my web pagehttps://sites.google.com/s! ite/paul7collegeinfo/Every school district gets to choose it's own textbooks so there are hundreds, if not thousands, of different textbooks being used across the country. Some are good, some are not. It's not like France, which has a standardized curriculum for the whole country.Prominent US textbook publishers includehttp://www.phschool.com/atschool/http://www.glencoe.com/http://www.hmco.com/products/products_secondary_ed...http://www.mcgraw-hill.com/site/our-businesses/edu...Secondary schools in the US are not all that good for a developed country. But our top universities are as good or better than any others in the world. US universities have been particularly good at producing Nobel Prize winners. Top universities give their students access to the very latest in high-tech research technology. Most universities in the US now require that students write and submit their papers using computers.There are so many books on education in America that it is hard to point! you to a specific one.http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-......Show more
