The structure of education systems vary. And within each, students aren't neatly stratified: there are middle school students who think better than undergraduates, and postgraduate students who struggle with things they should have learned as undergrads, and "researchers" who don't have a clue about the thing they supposedly research... | |

| Jul 31, 2014 at 13:01 | comment | added | Antonio Vargas | There has been some discussion on this in the past, see this and this. There are tiny examples where this has been implemented, namely for the tags set-theory and elementary-set-theory, and number-theory and elementary-number-theory (see this answer). It's arguable whether this has been effective. | |
