Summary: | Students in Shanghai, China, achieved the highest global scores in mathematics,
science, and reading comprehension in the 2012 PISA assessment, outperforming
education systems around the world. While this success is commonly linked to
standardised socio-political factors such as severity, selective schooling or strong
parental involvement, a television report explores the pedagogical factors behind

performance stems from behaviorist-inspired learning theories, emphasizing
repetition and practice, within a framework referred to as "didactic perspiration." |
