Re: 全球2%人口 - 天才學障集一身
mrsphcheung,
The united distribution of primary school seats has killed most traditional famous-branded schools, those which reluctantly to surrender and survive after changing to DF schools.
The EMB is focusing only on the 'education system' and it believes that a better system can automatically run smoothly to produce 'good quality' students .
Back to the old days of British's ruling , the education system served to produce talented work force for the demands of the industrialized and then commercialised era of our society. Once thel elite system of quality students by famous schools and keen competition help raise many elite students who graduated from HKU & CU. Nowadays, we have 8 univeristies and the overall standard of graduates naturally has fallen , but to a too surprising degree .
Due to more advanced research findings backed with related brain functioning theories, nowadays we've already a much better understanding of how effective learning can come to be. A gentle worldwide revolution of education system is being taken place , say in US , the MI theory has brought forth experimental MI primary schools . Soon there would be MI high schools next on the run. Referring to what were described in the book 'Learning Revolution' , similiar move is going on in places like New Zealand, Singapore, and many European countries.
Looking back the hybrid (monster) system of HK , it can't serve to develop students of comprehensive knowledge or skills to compete in the labor market , not to mention to devlelop the students in their overall character, temperament , horizon or other aspects of their personality to fit the ever-increasing demand of society nowadays.
In short , it failed in every purpose ( talented labor supply or wholeness development ) that modern education would aim for . The more annoying fact is that EMB did not even acknowledge any shortcomings of their work and attempt to cover up these aspects with 'virtual' goals and slogans that they have no ideas of what they're talking about.
Every year they have sent staff overseas to observe the education reform works of other countries, but still now there was so little has been done ?! Where have all these resources and money gone ?
We, as parents, have to prepare and pave the future of our kids by ourselves ; not to lay them on any experimental or trendy trials of EMB to fullfil only their own ego. Education can harm HK for decades as one generation passing on to the next generation. Think about the main reason why HK students are so poor in language ( both Chinese & English) , the present language teachers (primary & secondary) are also the victims of the changes in the education system ( like mother-tongue teaching , oral-type language learning and ignoring grammer etc.) .
I just wonder when would they wake up in such a coma or dream then , it's a terrifying nightmare for all of us.
