My buddy's teacher ask me to share something about China's high school education to the whole class. So I come up with some ideas.
First of all, it is great honor to spend 5 days with you. My experience in SRJC is really interesting and meaningful. I have learned a lot from my buddies and see many advanced education method in singapore. I like CCA and PW. Each of my buddies would have one or two CCAs such student concert, captain ball, debate, etc. In contrast, under the tense studying schedule, students in china's high schools haven't got enough time to take part in such activities. Only few of us are eager to participate in school boardcasting station, being a librarian and so on. i think CCAs give singaporean students a lot, friendship, fun, and skills.
Secondly, PW should be mentioned. In China, we only practise what we learn in the class by plenty of problem sets. Students are trapped by difficult physics, math, chemistry problems. In contrast, PW is a very open course, kind of chinese english. In their project work, they need to search for imformation which is useful for their topics, meanwhile project work helps them practise their writting skills. Also, they need to share information with their partners. When their opinions are opposite or they insist on different ideas, they learn to negotiate with each other. What they have learned has close relevence with reality. For example, aging population and overpopulation are two hot topic nowadays.
Thirdly, the class is very active. My buddies are eager to voice out their own ideas and brave enough to put out their confusing point. Even during the lecture, girls in my class are willing to ask tutors questions. I am so proud of them!!!!!!
Last not the least, I want to mention that singaporean JC education combines experiments and theory in class. during the chemistry and biology classes, teachers instruct them to learn new things from experiments. So the classes will not be boring. As we all know, scientific researches are all based on experiments. Students can form a good habit and have a riguous attitude since they are young. That is of great importance!!
Good night all of you:)
I miss you very much!
