MUST READ - 11 Ways Finland’s Education System Shows Us that “Less is More”. | Filling My Map

11 Ways Finland’s Education System Shows Us that “Less is More”. | Filling My Map: "So, what is the difference?  If the instruction in secondary mathematics is the same or sometimes worse than those found in the US,  why are Finnish students succeeding and ours are failing?  The difference is not the instruction. Good teaching is good teaching and it can be found in both Finland and in the US.   (The same can be said for bad teaching.)  The difference is less tangible and more fundamental.  Finland truly believes “Less is More.”  This national mantra is deeply engrained into the Finnish mindset and is the guiding principal to Finland’s educational philosophy.

Less IS more.

They believe it.  They live by it. "
