Doing Less with Less

I want to strip school down a little. A study showed that students in Japan, despite how well they do in international testing, use more traditional methods of teaching (like reading and writing from a textbook). Also, students do not need as many bells and whistles as we think. I learned all of the Microsoft Office applications, but my friend Charlie, a buisnessman, only needs Excel and PowerPoint in the real world.
