I think your better place and future is with all the money now wasted on charter schools.. you can posit that individiualss have different learning methods. these methods MUST be front and center, so one is not attempting to insert Apple software in to Pc hardware. tough example, I belive afro american learn kinestically, if you let them jump around the class. they will do better.. the first thing we do is tell them to sit in one place and listen.. you can deal with the gender differnces in math

how do you propose we move forward? if you donate the funds to the Center that is linked to the Penikese School, I can use to develop these tools and then shop them to all sorts of educational arenas. Teh brain plasticity issue is red hot. Most are focused on working memory because of the application to alzheimer's. No one has really caught on yet to the self-control part, but it is ripe for developing applications. I just need the resources to bring the relevant players on board and make this happen.
