From the Education and Human Resource Plan for our country unveiled this week. And that would be from
Labour Market to
Higher Education in Figure 5 on page 26. If you don't understand why then you could be suffering from... linear thinking and should definitely read
this to get rid of that disease. There may be much more missing but the 25-day period given for public comment on the 163-page report spanning a 12-year period is as ridiculous as the recent re-introduction of daylight savings time: it will get us to nowhere.
The plan is available
here.
Why Finland consistently tops PISA ratings...? Probably because the system is centred around fun for learners and their teachers are all holders of Masters degrees or received Masters-level training and need to strive to achieve performance targets for convincing their schools to keep themselves in employment.
ReplyDeleteStart school at 7 years, spend least time in school yet top PISA surveys. Teaching is considered very prestigious there. Second teacher is a good idea.
ReplyDeleteWe need to get in touch with OECD secretariat in 2012 if we want to participate in PISA 2015.
I totally agree about less is more and that you learn better when you are having fun.
And a means of measuring the effectiveness of our system (past, present and future) could be the number of NEET's generated from the system for each batch of entrants. Because these people are very good candidates to switch to the dark side at the very first opportunity...
