Why killing Media was killing an investment in the future

[Rod McCall]

It also reminds me of the great class sizes debate which raged in
Britain for years. I forget the exact numbers but essentially simply
having smaller class sizes does not always improve attainment i.e.
there is a point that was optimal, beyond that the improvement in the
students was minimal if at all. Yet the politicians kept pledging
smaller and smaller class sizes. One thing I do remember though is
that my computing class consisted myself and one other student while
this resulted in a much better atmosphere, I am not sure if it
improved our grades.

Cheers,

rod
