How effective or uneffective is the Amercian teaching method compared to the rest of the world?

I am doing a research paper regarding dropout rates. Is there a link between the U.S. teaching method and high dropout rates? What is the dropout rate and teaching method in other countries? If we are the superior power in the world, then why is there such a high dropout rate?

Not very..look at the research and information compiled in the US statistical manual....I did a similar paper years ago and the facts are frightening... I am in the Special Educational field and I looked mostly at students with 'learning disabilities'...The drop-out rate is significantly higher for these kids. But there are many more factors to include. ie... Socio-ecomic factors, racial percentage to the other population, teacher involvement....there is a basis for all of this. Look in the educational journals..especially if you have or your school library has ERIC. I found some of the most relevant information in places when looking in the prison system archives and such, because usually these kids will go to jail. statistically speaking..
Reply:I live in the USA. I have three kids that live in England. They have been there since about 1991. When my oldest son was in school here he was getting very poor grades. But from the first quarter of school in the England schools his grades whent up like crazy. He is now 25 years old, and has a batchlers degree in Phisics. That should tell you some thing about the English school system.
