Perfect or Exam-oriented Education

Homework, homework, and homework.

Test, test, and test.

These are the only two things that Chinese teachers know about. And Julia, which was one of those toilsome students, with lots of lots of lots of homework and tests to study,  just luckily shaked off those presure and came to US for shelter.

I saw the students here are having such a so carefree middle school and high shool life, without a mountain of worksheet to do everynight. The students here using the laptop to help them improve the knowledge. But in China, literally, the eager teachers are earnestly looking forward to confiscate all of the electronics that their students have, and let their students getting into the frame of mind for study and study.

Even so, I have a clear conscience that I still really love to go to the school, whether how hard and tired we study everyday. I love to have the efficient study, that will let us have the learning tension, and have a lot of concentration. That’s better than having nothing to do and just playing laptop, eating chips and almost faineant.

The goverment of China think that Chinese have a perfect education presumingly, because Chinese have the free nine-year compulsory education project. But what do the students know from the quiz and test, and lots of lots of lots of homework? They are actually study for the exam, not for themselves. After they take that exam, everything they  remember last night will totally disapear in their mind, because those are short-term memory!
