A quarter of young people under the age of 24 would not be able to read. The subject is treated remarkably calmly. Today it is a quarter, but soon probably much more. What could be done about it – learning for example?
According to the famous glass comparison (half empty or half full?), this special glass is actually three quarters full! A quarter cannot read, but that means: Three quarters can! So why the fuss? But now the Federation of Industry reports that, according to a new study, not just a quarter are functionally illiterate, but 40 percent. That’s a different house number. Let’s assume it’s true. And let’s also assume that the increase from 25 to 40 percent has taken place in the past twenty years.
