Chinese Students Three Years Ahead of Those in West

Why East Asian Students Are Superior

American parents looking to send their children to the world’s best schools might want to start looking East.
And we don’t mean the East Coast.
East Asia is now home to the world’s best primary and secondary schools, producing students who are able to outperform their counterparts in the Western world, according to a recent report from the Grattan Institute, a think tank based in Australia.
The average 15-year old in Shanghai is performing math at levels that are two or three years ahead of students in the U.S., Australia, the U.K. and Europe, according to the report, which was based on data from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s Program for International Student Assessment.
Hong Kong students are at least one year ahead in reading and math when compared to U.S. and European children, the report said.
Results of the study underscore a global shift that is occurring both economically and now, according to Grattan, academically. East Asian primary and secondary schools are better at addressing their own weaknesses and know how to improve the classroom through policy, the study said. In 2006, Hong Kong raised the reading levels of its students to No. 2 in international assessments, up from 17th just five years earlier. Singapore has cut courses for teachers that don’t result in higher performance for their students.
Educational institutions in East Asia are also doing more with less, the study says. South Korea spends around half of what the U.S. spends on its primary school students, yet South Korean pupils outperform their U.S. counterparts in reading, math and science.
President Barack Obama recently pledged to earmark $80 million for math and science education, believing it will improve the economy, according to a recentreport in the Associated Press.
The study also comes as the U.S. questions its educational standards and as figures such as the “Tiger Mother” — – a Yale Law School professor who haspreached tough discipline for kids — have caused American parents to rethink their own roles in learning and to ask themselves whether Asian mothers are superior.
The U.S. has already taken notice of the East Asian educational prowess. Earlier this month, a memorandum of understanding was signed between Singapore and the U.S., building on an earlier agreement in 2002 that focused on the teaching and learning of math and science. The new MOU continues to prioritize the two subjects as key areas of collaboration in the two countries – with Singapore having some of the best math and science high school scores in the world, and the U.S. some of the worst.
Back in 2009, a delegation from Singapore’s Ministry of Education was sent to Washington DC, to share the “Singapore model method” for learning mathematics. In the same year, President Obama gave a speech to the National Academy of Sciences, devoting an entire part of it to the importance of math and science education. In his comparison of math scores between US and foreign countries, the first country he mentioned was Singapore.
“Our students are outperformed in math and science by their peers in Singapore, Japan, England, the Netherlands, Hong Kong, and Korea, among others. Another assessment shows American 15-year-olds ranked 25th in math and 21st in science when compared to nations around the world,” Mr. Obama said.
At least in China, such rankings are not necessarily cause for celebration. Many Chinese see the country’s education system, in particular its failure to foster innovation, as one weakness preventing it moving further along the path to superpower status. The country’s students have increasingly flocked to the West for college, and even high school, in an effort to escape the rote memorization prevalent in Chinese schools and cultivate the sort of creativityseen as producing figures like late Apple founder Steve Jobs.

澳洲教育落后東亞 上海學(xué)生領(lǐng)先澳生3年
滴答網(wǎng)http://www.tigtag.com 2012-2-20 新快網(wǎng) 
滴答網(wǎng)訊  一份最新報告稱,澳大利亞的學(xué)校體系落后于東亞,上海的學(xué)生有時甚至領(lǐng)先澳洲學(xué)生3年。
由格拉頓研究所(Grattan Institute)將在周五發(fā)布的報告顯示,雖然在2000至2008年之間經(jīng)濟合作與發(fā)展組織(OECD)的國家大幅增加了學(xué)?;穑撬鼈冊趯W(xué)習(xí)表現(xiàn)方面依然落后于東亞體系。
格拉頓研究所學(xué)校教育項目負責(zé)人Ben Jensen周五在聲明中稱:“在上海,一名普通15歲學(xué)生的數(shù)學(xué)水平超出澳洲、美國和歐洲的同齡人兩至三年。這有著深遠的影響。隨著經(jīng)濟力量從西方轉(zhuǎn)向東方,教育方面的高表現(xiàn)也一樣?!?div style="height:15px;">
這份報告基于一系列測試,列出了最高表現(xiàn)學(xué)校體系的前四名,分別是香港、韓國、新加坡和上海。
此外,費爾法克斯(Fairfax)報道稱,報告還發(fā)現(xiàn)澳洲的學(xué)生要落后香港、新加坡和韓國學(xué)生兩年。不過,在科學(xué)、數(shù)學(xué)和閱讀方面,澳洲學(xué)生依然領(lǐng)先于美國、英國和歐洲國家的學(xué)生。
報告發(fā)現(xiàn),提高學(xué)生表現(xiàn)三大要素中的其中一個是要改善對教師的支持和培訓(xùn)。Jensen說:“這四大體系之所以能夠名列前茅不是由孔子學(xué)說、機械學(xué)習(xí)、應(yīng)試教育或者虎媽等文化因素決定?!毕喾?,他認為這其中值得效仿的是對于高效學(xué)習(xí)的不懈實際關(guān)注、教師教育強勢文化的創(chuàng)造、協(xié)同、指導(dǎo)、反饋和持續(xù)的專業(yè)發(fā)展。
Jensen告訴《澳大利亞人報》:“我們將錢用在了錯誤的地方。我們從亞洲學(xué)到的是,提高學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)效果的唯一方法是改善教學(xué)。改革教學(xué)關(guān)乎行為和文化轉(zhuǎn)變,這意味著要改變老師的做法,日復(fù)一日地進行,落實到每一間學(xué)校。”
