The main problem with American education is the focus on pedagogy instead of the subject and knowledge of the discipline.
Say what? I'd say you have that backward. The most brilliant scientist in the world is lost if you can't reach kids and manage a classroom. Someone average in content can teach the material to kids if they know how to reach them and manage a classroom.

I think a big problem we have in education is the fact there are many teachers average in content or worse. Why should someone ever be just average in content and try to teach someone?
Additionally average is scary when you think about it.
