Greenland, long a hot bed of educational reform, has turned the education world on its head with its new method: Free Range Students.
Under the Free Range Students model of teaching, students are given free-range to wander the forests, streets, or villages they most connect with, discovering things about themselves outside of the classroom and developing vital "street smarts."
Teachers admit to being originally skeptical, but have been blown away by the quick and overwhelming results.
"It's really cut down on my behavioral dean referrals," says Skol Gaden. "I never have to write a student up for talking back to me, or wandering through the halls. They're out learning with real experience and bringing [that knowledge] back to the class."
Long seen as more traditional, schools in the UK are starting to take notice, and the model is spreading out throughout Europe.

whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
