Is Russian Education Under Attack…

windows to russiaThe draft of the Russian Education Reform that was posted online for debate by the people, has sparked total outrage in the internet community. Now after people have had time to absorb the information the rumbling has started…

This is the site: (Russian and English)

If I remember correctly this Education Reform is one of Medvedev’s projects… (I may even have several articles talking about this… Hummmm lets see! OK here is one…)

But let’s get back to democracy. Democracy isn’t just discussing draft laws. Right now, by the way, we are considering a law on education. You see, modern democracy is not just representation, when people elect a deputy to represent them in the parliament or a regional lawmaking structure. Modern democracy is people openly expressing their opinions. People who use digital media and the Internet know that the web often gives birth to public opinion. (WTR Link)

OK so this is nothing new and now they are allowing the people to have a say. Will the Kremlin listen?

From what I am understand as I read the draft, is that this possible law is going to hurt many Russians in the education field and after reading over what they propose, it is a very bad idea…

It seems that the days of free Russian education are over. It is a clear sign of separation of the rich and poor. Unless the people get their opinion across and stop this atrocity…

Russia has always had some of the highest standards in education in the world and it shows in the number of intellects that are present in Russia. Russians have always had the ability to have a complete free education all the way to a PHD, whether they have money or not…

But this intentional dumbing down the populace is not beneficial. I just ask Russia to look at America and think about the dumbing down syndrome…

The above is just to name a few, of hundreds of links…

So Russia wants to be more like America everyday! Be careful you are heading that direction more and more everyday…

I hear the rumbling in LiveJournal at this very moment…
