Would this system work in Mexico?

[Leigh Thelmadatter]

The whole notion of peer review and autonomous learning is not really new, but Im impressed that someone has been able to make them work so well in real world. Dunno if it would work in Mexico or the in U.S. for that matter. Ill betcha one reason it is working at the Cornwall school is that everyone is on the same page with a carefully thought-out plan tailored to local needs. They would have to be for such a radical departure from the norm to work. Could a school in Mexico or the US do such? I dont know. But its worth keeping an eye on this to see where it goes.
