WASHINGTON, Nov. 15 (AScribe Newswire) -- Students in most U.S. states are performing as well as or better than most students in foreign countries in math and science, but the highest achieving states are still significantly below the highest achieving countries, according to a new study by the American Institutes for Research (AIR).

In the early 1990s, I was taken aback to overhear my 3-year-old son insisting to his 6-year-old cousin that he went to “ABC school,” not to day care, as she condescendingly referred to it. (He was spending a few sociable hours a week at a children’s center chosen because it was around the corner.) I had no idea where he got that term, or when he decided his educational credentials needed upgrading. And, given that alphabet drills weren’t in fact part of the program, I wasn’t sure what he was really boasting about.

The growing number of toy-themed virtual worlds aimed at young people risks undermining the basic human values we wish to instil in children.
So said industry veteran Lord Puttnam opening a London conference devoted to discussing virtual worlds.
He feared that all children will learn from these virtual spaces is that they are first and foremost consumers.
He urged creators to build more moral virtual worlds that instil in children the values that societies need.

Last year 45.8% of students achieved five A*-C grades including English and mathematics in the GCSE examination: 54.2% did not.
This annual statistic is one that the government was long reluctant to release. In that English and maths are of such crucial importance, it is the only statistic that matters. We will not know this year’s figure until the autumn, when, fortunately perhaps for the government, the spotlight will have moved off exam statistics.

As many as one in three primary school children is given the wrong marks in national tests, according to a report on standards in primary schools.
Sats for seven- and 11-year-olds, which are used to assess their progress and feed into national school league tables, are unreliable, put pupils under psychological pressure and have had little impact, the report says.

University graduates will have to hand over almost half their salaries to the taxman within five years, according to a report which shows the escalating financial burdens facing young people.
The “IPOD” generation of young people who are Insecure, Pressured, Overtaxed and Debt-ridden are the victims of an institutional bias that has tipped the balance between taxation and spending against young people in favour of older generations, the report from the independent non-party think-tank Reform says.

Students should head north or west if they want their money to go further while at university, research suggests.
Living costs for students at some of the UK's universities are more than twice as expensive as at others.
The study by Push.co.uk - an independent website for university applicants - is the first of its kind.
The National Union of Students (NUS) says it shows some candidates are being priced out of certain universities.
London's Royal Academy of Music and Imperial College are the most expensive institutions in the country and placed above Oxford and Cambridge, according to Push.

MADRID -- The new course introduced in Spanish schoolrooms this fall seemed innocuous enough: civic lessons on the meaning of the constitution and the rights that every citizen of Spain can expect.
But the curriculum has become the latest battleground in a raging war between Spain's leftist government and the still-powerful Roman Catholic Church.
Church officials and conservative social activists are trying to have the mandatory courses scrapped, contending that the curriculum promotes ideas that go against church teachings. Among those is acceptance of homosexuals and, by implication, same-sex marriage, which the government legalized a couple of years ago.

ALEX Salmond was attacked yesterday for breaking another key election pledge - this time to cut school class sizes.
At First Minister's Questions, he was accused of backing down on his promise to reduce class sizes to 18 for the first three years of primary school by 2011.
Wendy Alexander, the Scottish Labour leader, said ministers were leaving it to councils to implement the policy but failing to provide money or support.
Last week, Mr Salmond was accused of watering down a promise to provide 1,000 more police, by including in that figure officers brought out of retirement or redeployed from desk jobs.
