That was fun. I don't agree with it all by any means, though. Here are two points:
- I was also twitching at the part about medicating ADHD, partly because I thought I remembered that his idea that these medications anaesthetise children is the opposite of the truth, at least for some of the meds - some of them are stimulants, aren't they? So that made me want to get my I Think You'll Find It's More Complicated Than That T-shirt
- the idea that the best learning happens in groups, extended to "imply" a bunch of other stuff such as that you shouldn't assess children individually, is very fashionable but IMNSHO it's codswallop. Group work is important and valuable in many ways, and sometimes being in a group is part of the best way to learn something, but in the end, my learning is a change in my brain, and only I can change what's in my brain. Many important things are essentially individual anyway - there are not many good collaboratively written symphonies, or novels, or plays, for example.
