Education Policies for Different Countries

Education Policies for Different Countries
2

• There has been a heated debate on education
  policies that are implemented in different
  countries. In fact, it is easy to identify if one
  country is doing better than the other. Some of
  these concepts may be homogeneous to some
  countries. On the other hand, a country may have
  adopted a totally different approach on education
  matters.

Teaching students how to conceptualize

• According to an advisor working for CNN, only 2
  of students are in a position to conceptualize
  math problems and formulas according to real life
  situation. A certain test known as PISA is often
  conducted on students to verify whether they have
  mastered all the concepts. In comparison, 30 of
  students based in Shanghai can implement the
  concepts that they have learned in school.

Shortening school days

• A country such as Finland is normally at the top
  regarding education according to Pearson
  assessment of education quality. The main reason
  for this is because an average term consists of
  only 600 hours. In other countries, students
  often go to school for a total of 1,080 hours.
  They use shorter time as possible to give the
  teachers enough time to prepare for the next year.

Diverting more government spending toward
education

• A country such as Singapore has diverted its
  funding towards the education sector. This is the
  reason as to why they normally come first
  whenever they contest in any math exam with other
  countries. As illustrated, 20 of its funding is
  pumped into the education sector as compare to
  the US that only spares 2 of its budget. As a
  result, teachers get motivated to work harder to
  produce results since they are better paid.

Keeping students with one teacher and class every
year

• Students in Finland get access to services from
  one teacher every year. On the other hand, the US
  only assigns different teachers to handle
  different subjects per class. This means that
  students get to meet as many teachers as possible
  throughout their lifetime. It is difficult to
  monitor the progress of the student using many
  teachers.

8
Using top performing schools as good examples for
failing schools

• Teamwork is a very important factor when it comes
  to the success of the students. Shanghai operates
  in such a way that better-performing schools
  mingle with low-performing schools so that they
  can emulate their examples.

• This form of empowered administration ensures
  that a better performing school spearheads the
  weaker one by releasing some of their best
  teachers to coach them for the time being.

11
Instilling a strong sense of belief and
determination in students

• Japan is a very good example that has
  demonstrated this idea. In fact, 84 of Japanese
  students have developed a passion for whatever
  they do. In fact, by the time they are leaving
  their schools, they have already identified what
  they want to do in life by implementing
  everything.

• Unfortunately, only 50 of American students are
  not passionate about what they go to school for.
  This culture is what has made Japan become the
  most technologically advanced country.
