&gt; What I find most interesting about this is that most of the changes they implemented weren&#x27;t necessarily targeted towards women and benefited everyone (emphasis on group work, research projects, splitting the into classes by experience).<p>I&#x27;ll take exception to the first example: group work.  I loathed and hated group work in college.  It was simply and solely a way for people who couldn&#x27;t hack the course material to manage a pass anyway.  This might, of course, be good experience for life, but it&#x27;s terrible for education.<p>Research projects could be really, really good if they demand concrete results; they could be really terrible if they are just a way to reward effort without results.<p>Splitting classes by experience might be a decent idea, although I&#x27;ve heard folks speak positively of one-room schoolhouses as well.
