I think in fact that the article idealizes what happens in other countries. My main point is not that the US should what other countries do. My point is that we should focus more on the systematic development of executive functions, such as awareness, critical thinking, learning how to learn. And do so better than anyone else does.

You may also want to consider the disadvantages of the curriculum in the countries you suggested the US should follow. One I am particularly familiar with is that of Singapore. Singaporeans pay a hefty price for their excellent results in international tests. Singaporean students not only spend enormous amounts of time on their studies learning material by heart but also end up finishing school with almost zero knowledge in history, literature, arts, geography and a host of other subjects in humanities.
