回想,数理科以英文教学是否为社会带来冲突?
自从2003年政府开始实行英语教导数理政策以来,各族文教团体即大力反对。在华社及国阵华基政党的坚持下,华小被允许以双语(英语和华语)教导数理科。然而,华小以双语进行数理教学和考试是否违背教育原理?
它是否将加重学生的负担和压力,使学生容易产生混淆,并觉得枯燥及厌倦而影响他们学习的兴 趣、进度及德育智的发展?经过六年的实行,到底此双语教数理政策对华小学生带来多大的冲击呢?
再看,压力、厌倦、影响兴趣、影响发展,到底是同时使用双语的问题,还是英语教学的问题呢?
打从6年前政府改变以英语教数理开始,心中开始担忧,可是无法解释这种心理。
曾聒来自小地方,一个非常朴素的小县,一个鲜少接触英语对话的地方,家中都是使用潮洲和福建话,华文是上小学后才开始学习。父母亲虽受教育不高,庆幸的是他们的中文程度足够让曾聒更快掌握到华文、华语,因而曾聒所了解的是,只要有学习的环境,家中有长辈或学习对象,学习进度将会是事半功倍,还好不是英语教学,不然早就垮了......
一般华裔子,只要家中口操华语,常看华语电视节目,看得懂华文,就会有学习及理解华文的环境,用华语、华文学习任何一种科目,都会比没有常常用上的语言容易。
小时候曾聒没有真正接触华文,所以一直认为自己的母语是潮洲,而华文只是一种普遍华人统一的沟通方式,同样的如果一些家人都是说英文的,他们会认为母语是英文么?
一些人会认为英语教数理对学生掌握各学科知识和技能起着基本作用,如果学生有能力从小掌握英语数理科,往后升学步入大专时有更快了解数理科目的专用名词,更快掌握资讯。
根据调查,中、英、巫三语报份读者市场各占1/3,从小到大在家中用英文交谈,认为所谓的母语是英文的人数不会少,而且根据独立调查在年初报告中赞成数理以英文教学的比率达59%,反对英语教数理的比率只是39%,其中344个接受调查的华人当中有51%赞同以英语教数理,40%不赞同以英语教数理。
如果现实生活中这样多人希望以英文教数理,那么所谓的恢复母语教学是谁的主意?谁最开心?
一些人认为,要彻底解决人民的需求,除了恢复母语教学,可能还有必要增加英文小学和英文中学,毕竟不是每个人有一致的母语概念。
谁最得利?心知肚明。
ReplyDelete最重要得是,人民又要受苦了,最得利的是,又有人有得抽佣咯!这是一笔不少也不小的佣金哦!政府呀政府,你们就开心呀,我们就苦呀!你们到底知不知道人民的苦呀?如果可以的话,我们真的真的很想也把你们给換了啦!真的受够了啦!
什么佣金?
ReplyDelete为何没有提起......
我国哪个政策可以赚大钱的?
ReplyDelete明知是赚钱的,到了最后也不知进了谁的裤袋!
接下来,教长将大事装修“英文课堂”。他说这几年将增加上万名英文教师!
到时候教英文不知又可以拿多少%的“横财”哦?
问大家一个普通常识题:
“猪”为何不能和“人”平起平坐?
答案:
因为“猪”只有“猪脑”。
他以为增加英文老师就可以提升我们的英文水准?!
他以为增加英文节数就可以提升学生的英文水平?!
他以为加薪水给那些英文老师就可以激励他们加倍努力教书?!
都说过了,半桶水倒不出一桶水的!
他到今天都搞不清自己应该做什么。
可悲的政客!
废除英文教数理,最开心的不是家长,而是董教总和马来作家协会。
ReplyDelete我也赞成设立英文学校。。。
一个新的教育部长,
ReplyDelete一个新的教育政策,
佣金才会永续耕耘,
这就是我国的特色。
孩子永远是牺牲品,
国民还有多少个孩子可牺牲?
我国还有多少个50年可浪费?
高官权贵的孩子,
你们一无所长无所谓,
家里大把金钱让你们花;
人民百姓,你们相信政府就好了,
政府会好好照顾你们,只要你们乖乖听话。
The next thing they (the government) should look into is to get rid of all those unnecessary books the kids have to carry each day.
ReplyDeleteThey should revise the minimum requirements or needs, and not blindly forcing parents to spend money unnecessarily.
Do you think these kids have to study so many subjects while in primary school?
All they need are mastering simple/basic Bahasa Malaysia, English, Chinese or Tamils as the basis of their primary education; plus of course, simple mathematics and science.
The government must free us all, both the parents and children, the unjustifiable burdens.
Give the kids more time to play and interaction with family members than studying only.
Do you know that the Malaysian Government has been trying the very best for the last few decades to encourage a ratio of sciences: arts = 60:40 amongst the secondary school? This has not been achieved thus far after countless efforts!
ReplyDeleteOur MCA leaders seem very ignorant of this! Are you aware of what has been suggested by the Greatest Man in the world? Forms 4 & 5 sciences to be taught in English and Forms 1to 3 In BM (I presume this because he didn't say anything about the lower secondary, that logically implies the inference he will uphold the cabinet's decision, after all, he is one of the policy makers!), then the ratio of science:arts will deteriorate again!
It is not easy to encourage students in Form 4 to take sciences unless they are the pretty good ones! Now a sudden change of medium of instruction in Form 4 will make more students shun from sciences! Who is the one to pull the government's leg in trying to achieve the ration 60:40?
Wake up Great Man, please. Please be more rational, practical and realistic in giving constructive suggestion: Forms 1 to 6 all in English or all in BM. Please have sympathy for our younger generation and be more empathic when MCA wants to make any suggetion about children's education!!! Please bear in mind, not every student is so smart like the great MCA leaders. Most of our students can't be taught in this 'fantastic' way.
Please spend more time for our society and welfare of our beloved nation, do not just try to spend all your energy and effort to push your rivals in the same party to dead corner! All Malaysians are sick of the quarels in MCA.
on the educational basis, i truely agree tat children should start their learning of any subject using their mother tongue, thats why there shouldn't be any doubt of teaching maths and science using mother tongue in primary school.
ReplyDeleteas for 2ndary school, i do agree that it is a must to get close up to international education, or globalized education, but it doenst mean math and science must be teach in English, because teaching in english will never ensure a good standard of english that able to let people write-communicated-convey effectively .. the globalize education aim for no restriction in worldwide communication and sharing of knowledge, not on the science and math or so call technology basis ...
