As we all know American Education is differentfrom Chinese Education, not only from the educational system, butalso from technical models.
Some people will say China primary education is better than theUnited States, and "China has solid basic skills in primaryeducation, I think this view is very one-sided. If this view widelydisseminated, and will mislead many people even the entireeducation sector.
Although the American primary education (primary andsecondary) than China to learn the content less rhythm ease, Ireally can not see them in secondary schools only for the 1000 andmathematics that we have made that the 5000 math difference. Hesaid that "the West rely on advanced science and technology areimmigrants," it goes too far, and too assertive on the. Theevaluation of the Chinese people can only be in the "community"spread and could not have been the Western mainstream mediarecognition.
I think the most important difference is theeducational system, China schools prefer indoctrination, so Chinese students have very strongfoundation, it is the advantage of the Chinese students, butalso the disadvantage of the students, because Chinese studentsalways fear the new challenges. Compare with the American students,Chinese students’ creativity is worse than the American students,from course reports, designing reports to the final exam, Chineseuniversities pay great attention to if the students fit into the“standard”, but in the other word, American universities emphasison the practice, and the creative thinking in the process of thepractice. This is the major difference between the two countries’education.
Chinese students always have good memory and mathlevel, this is the reason why Chinese students can get good scorein the examination-oriented educationsystem, but American education ask students to take part in,practice, and crate. Many courses have case study and discussion.Teachers will take 30% of the learning time to teach the students,in the last time, students will talk about the questions, and ifthey want to learn the knowledge, they must learn by themselves andlook up information in the libraries. In this process, the abilityof solving problems and learning by themselves is improved. Theyregain the initiative, the attitude is different, and the effect ofstudy is also different. (刘宗胜 China AcademicJournal)
In American, the atmosphere of the class is veryactive; students can interpret the teacher and ask the questionsthey have. Even though some questions look very simple, but theteacher will solve it very carefully. And sometimes some questionis very acute; students will even contradict teachers’ idea.Homework often require students to make critical comments, teacherswill encourage students’ idea, and if some students have veryunique and creative ideas, teachers will praise these students. Inchina, if some students just pass the exam, teacher will be veryangry to these students, but in contrast, American teachers willfind some good points in this student’s paper, and encourage thisstudent to make effort to study, this encouragement gives studentsconfidence, and allow them to find the questions in thestudy.
The American educational system pays moreattention to the development in an all-around way, think highly of theability of social activity, such as the communication and communionamong the students and cultivate the team work. In the contrast,students in China emphasis on the score of the exams and theself-development, team work is not very important to the Chinesestudents.
American higher education attach importance to theability, demand every student to learn positively, through variousforms to search information, make practical plan and absorbknowledge. Otherwise, they also cultivate students highlyresponsibility, social ability and self-management. (刘耳China Academic Journal ).
Since the different educational systems, Chinesestudents do not have active learning, and their English, computer, and basicability of searching information are all worse than Americanstudents. Chinese students do not know how to study, form their ownideas and new ideas, work out learning ambitions, and choose goodlearning method.
Our education system forced students from primary schools,starting from deep in the water that the sea until he graduatedfrom high school, and twist naturally eliminate the mentaldevelopment of children of this most important process. As theyenter university after learning instead of long-term energyoverload fatigue, reduced interest in learning, a lot of timeplaying mahjong and fall in love, completely follow the path of ananti-natural law. Can we count on our education and training at theforefront of world science and scientists? Can we say that primaryeducation is "very good"?
Stress also deprived of primary education and the juvenilesqueeze their emotional education, aesthetic education, artseducation, sociology of education, and the space an importantnegative impact on the other hand. These create a sound educationis the basic elements of personality. A flawed character that isdifficult to have success.
American education is basically to take care of these lawsof nature. In junior high school (15 years old) to the studentsbefore basically do not exert any pressure. From a carefreechildhood, the growth of interest in freedom, the freedom todevelop all kinds of ideas to the psychological and physiologicalstudents all have very healthy development. Students learn veryrelaxed. However, a 15-year-old student had entered high school,learning rapidly becoming more stringent, and the burden andpressure on the study have significantly increased. This state willcontinue to increase until graduating from university. Results touniversity graduates have learned over the total content of China'suniversity students have no less. In other words, the ability tounderstand and intellectual development are very useful for China'seducation to learn. ( 叶晓玲 中国成人教育2007年4月)
Compliance with the laws of nature in western education isthe fundamental difference between China, as well as the existingform of education in the deepest and most substantive, it was notedthat the most difficult was the crucial issues. In fact, Americaneducation does not have any of the ingenious, but only comparedobedience to objective laws. China's education system ignores thisobjective law, and that is a subjective decision-making mistake,and the helplessness of a reality. Reality can not be changed, butat least people can be subjective decision-making in a correctguiding ideology, to effectively reduce the degree of deviation ofthe future and determine the right direction, instead ofself-satisfaction in the "great China's education" is amirage.
