Current research showing Americans are becoming less literate and mathematical with each generation. Can we turn this trend around?
New OECD study finds that U.S. adults rank low on literacy and numeracy, However the economy and innovation capability in the United States are still very competitive.
One reason could be that American labor market is good at attracting talented foreigners, offering them more money than they could make elsewhere., This comment comes from Andreas Schleicher, the O.E.C.D, deputy director for education and skills in an article recently published in the New York Times: Stubborn Skills Gap in America’s Work Force Published: October 8, 2013
