Thank you for making this point - it's a good reminder that _no_
educational strategy works for all learners, which is why diversity of
approach is so important. Kids of every stripe (including gender)
are being left out in classrooms all over the world every day - in
different ways, for different reasons - and as long as we are going
to compel kids to go to school, we have an obligation to continue
crafting the most inclusive learning environments possible. Infinite
variation among learners (being human) demands infinite variation
of educational environment, so it's a dynamic - and never-
ending! - process.
