Yeah...Actually, i dont really agree with our country's concept in education. do you know why?
because the curriculum, dont make student become creative. They only study by memorize many lesson. And, the result is when they"ve finished their study in high level (ex:in a college). It makes them to face e new problem, that is to be a joob seeker.
One thing to be underlined that: when they are studying, they have to learn many lessons. On the other hand, when they want to apply a job, all the lesson are not needed anymore. They only need a basic lesson, such as : math, communication, writing(typing). So, a little bit useless right?study many lesson, but not properly to be used...
Nice to read your article:)
thanks...... ;)
