This is a major problem in education at all levels, from kindergarten
through college. Programs are adopted virtually nationwide before anyone
bothers to see if they even work.
When Clinton was elected, the Israeli media was jubilant that he wanted
to use nationally a system Israel uses to teach reading (and which the
Clintons had introduced in Arkansas). The Israeli media, and the Clintons,
never questioned why Arkansas was still at the bottom of the states in any
statistical measure of educational performance.
