Problem

Educational curricula over emphasizing method rather than content

Nature:

Students with startling gaps in cultural, historical and literary knowledge is the result of an over emphasis on teaching method or process and ignoring content. Curriculum emphasizes skills over knowledge. Teachers are taught teaching methods rather than subject matter. Textbooks tend to be a compendium of disconnected facts.
