教育壓力,是不是有好處?

selina 提到...

Heard some experiences from French friends who had participated in the Scandinavian education system,

one spent time in a Finnish university. He was shocked by the fact that Finnish university students seem to be extremely lazy - they never respect homework deadlines, and once the day is due but they cannot produce the work, then the professor would delay the deadline, then at the next deadline will be set up. the same will happen until the professor cancels the assignment outright, so the student never has to hand in the homework.

another one spent time in a swedish high school. she remarks that the class is constantly noisy as only very few students really pay attention to the class. The students would talk on their mobile phone, chat, eat and drink, and leave and enter the class without asking for permission. She says it seems that the swedish system is completely free (in cost) but extremely well equipped, yet the resources are very much abused.

你的朋友親眼看見芬蘭大學生的疏懶,確是一個問題。芬蘭教育號稱平等,國內並無貴族學校,所有人都有機會享受最好的資源。同時,他們又盡量取消考試,去除學生的學習壓力。但李察相信,沒有壓力,未必是最好的。大部份人都是需要壓力的。只有少數極度超卓的人,可能在無壓的環境下主動求知。而有壓力或者無壓力,目的不是為了人們學習得舒服些,而是為了整個社會需要知識去應付挑戰。無壓力的環境,或者會造就懶人,但或者亦能保護天才,真心的研究者,可以不受干擾。

社會需要的不是一兩位天才,而是要找到一條路。

摩西曾經找到一條出紅海之路。
而未來的教育,可能需要找出一條走出太陽系之路。
