let them shine～ let them shine～ “I wanna go to college because I want my kids to live in a better place” Being a teacher means 你承載著全社會的夢想 這個職業(yè)太重要 美國意識到了 我突然想起一件事情 有個舍友跟過我和另外一個舍友說 想不明白為什么你們會想當老師 碰到調(diào)皮的孩子不會很生氣嗎 另外一個舍友回答 她隨緣渡人 我說 難道你不會好奇他們?yōu)槭裁磿B(yǎng)成這種性格嗎 不好奇education到底怎么樣影響人 怎么樣把人影響好嗎 我真的是strongly believe in 我要做的不僅僅是present the knowledge 更是 guide them through their lives Besides 我弟弟半年前也經(jīng)歷過“l(fā)ottery” harsh for me to 看到他們present抽獎現(xiàn)場 他們1 in 10 或者5 都keep fingercrossed through the whole process 我們呢 我們呢 1 in 5000？我們的情況 比美國更迫切 to change the education system to make good teachers and then to have a better education system for our kids

這部紀錄片是通識課的老師推薦的 看完后真的感觸頗多

教育真的很重要 公平的教育更重要 “運氣”是不公平的 最后的抽簽情節(jié)真的給我看哭了TT 沒被選上的孩子會不會從這里就覺得“哦 我是不會被選中的人”呢 母愛真的很偉大TT

KIPP 和 the baby college真的好厲害 很有開創(chuàng)性 讓人們意識到每一個孩子都能通過受教育而變成更好的人 包括那些貧困、家庭有問題的“差孩子”

官僚體制和教師工會確實是阻礙發(fā)展的絆腳石 下放過多的自主權(quán)也是不行的 教師工會保護的是一群不上進的老師.. 這里面的關(guān)系錯綜復雜 所以真的很佩服Michalle Rhee 好有魄力

希望以后自己可以成為一名優(yōu)秀的老師！

自勉！！

This semester , I took a course called looking at American education through movies . At the first class , our teacher showed us a documentary called waiting for superman . It gives me a lot new ideas about American and American education after watching it.

Waiting for "Superman" is a 2010 American documentary film directed by Davis Guggenheim and produced by Lesley Chilcott . By following five students , the film criticizes the American public education system : inequity of education resources , teachers do not take work seriously , bloated public education system …These problems have led to a decline in the quality of education in the United States : the grades of reading and math have not improved since 1970s , a lot students can not be admitted into university , increase of crime rate …

The film changes my view of America . I have not been to America before , the way I know about America just is watching American movies . especially Hollywood movies . In my old view , America is the best nation in the world , it has the best university , people all over the world want to go to America . It seems that everything is perfect , and there is no issues in America. But the film tells me that problems are everywhere , no matter in America .

I got known that American education and Chinese education have both Commonality and differences . America and China both have public education system , which is free for every students . However , America private education is well developed , while Chinese is not . The best schools in America are private schools . But on the contrary , the best schools in China are established by government. Perhaps it is may because of the culture and history . Besides , the education system of America and China is same . A kid will get into primary school when he grows up , and then junior school , high school . When he Reach the appropriate level , he will be admitted into a university . That is same as China . Another difference I find is that assessment method between America and China is different . We Chinese students have to take gaokao before we get into university , and there are six course exams in gaokao . But students in America is examined by reading and math ability .

The above is my observation . All in all , education is a very important part to the development of human being . As the end of the film said , good education is not from superman , it is from everyone of us . We should take it seriously and take actions . By the way , if there is any chance , I would like to go to America to experience American education by myself .
