It’s seen that our country is trying to implant a reading culture among the people as what is being advertised in the television. The advertisement shows people reading in the library. Wow, it seems like we, the people of the nation are so hardworking and we are working our way to gain more knowledge from the book! But, how true would that be, I wonder? Just have a look the people around you, you would have found out that mostly what they are reading are academic books.
Academic excellent. Is this what our country is trying to cultivating? It was as if we are being trained to answer the question correctly as being written in the answer skim. We learn, we study, we analyze, we learn the answer for the question and we score in examination. Is this education environment healthy? What are we producing? Our education system is actually giving birth to manlike robot. We are trained to have answer as output. Plus, we are very expertise at copy and paste, aren’t we?
Additionally, companies are asking for candidates with higher education background by rewarding them with higher post position within the company. This makes us greed for the degree certificate. We need the cert in order to be qualified for the job, if we do not want to end in lower paid job.
Not to mention that our parent are always concern about our bright future. They keep themselves up to date as in what requirement we need to fulfill in order to obtain a better living than now. Hence, they try very hard to let us excel in our study.
At the end of the day, what had we learned? Did you still remember what you had learned after your examination? To be more precise, had we learn from what we had studied?......
