Inevitable outcome of outcome-based education. But it gets worse.
Remember, the next surgeon who operates on you may be a similar product of outcome-based education. The next pilot of your jet...the OBE generation is coming of age.
Thanks once again to the NEA and the dumbing down of the public education system to produce automatons who believe the liberal line. Nice to see the Times, a big proponent of such hogwash policies, get bit in the ass over this one, and just hilarious to listen to that pompous hypocrite Raines in full damage control spin mode.
I think that probably a big part of it - I don't think people simply start faking results once you get into professional life. From school through university, they've probably gotten away with similar capers but just didn't get caught and were encouraged more by teachers who in all likelyhood were more interested in making sure that students knew the "correct" take on something rather than true scholarship.
