ISSUE(6) A nation should require all of its students to study the same curriculum until they enter college.
Virtually everyone is in favor of that “the youth is the backbone of the society”, thus it’s crucial for a nation to provide quality education to its young people. To make students study the same national curriculum is, doubtless, a desirable measure for a country in order to use teaching resources reasonably, provide a board vision and platform for students, as well as promote relationships between people in different places and even races. Nevertheless, there are huge discrepancies in cultures and economical conditions among different countries, young people actually live in a wide variety of circumstances. It is going too far to say that said measure should be conducted in any nation.
It is true that in certain amount of nations, to require its students to study unified national curriculum can effectively cut down the government’s budgeting, because several different procedures of provincial preparation of curriculum design are combined into one, which could also reduce the waste of time. What’s more, under the same teaching contents, teachers in various educational institutions among the nation may conveniently share their teaching cases, methods and instruments together. Schools in mega cities and rural areas may have had their independent tutoring systems, whereas they could exchange their experiences and plans based on the identical educational goal.
Not only may the implementing of the recommendation be beneficial to teachers and government’s expenditure, but it can also serve to offer students living in diverse background, ranging from rustic communities, small towns, medium cities to mega cities, a broad and expended horizon to learn more of incidents happened nationwide. In this way, when attending colleges and universities, young people from different locations even different races can get along well with each other more readily and gleefully, due to similar academic topics and view points to social issues formed in former education.
However, the author of the statement assumes too hastily that this instruction method applies to all types of countries and societies, as previously mentioned, regardless the varied conditions from country to country. As is acknowledged to all, the constitution and texture are diverse. While some countries are mainly made up from states or provinces similar to each other, there do exist other countries that have components which differentiate from each other tremendously, in culture, ethnic composition and language. To promote the curriculum nationally for the later is really an arduous task.
To further illustrate it, I would like to put light on China, an ancient civilization consisted of fifty six distinctive ethnic groups. These people of unlike origins inhabit together with their companies among thirty four provinces. It is a demanding work to persuade all people to accept the same course arrangement given that some ethnic groups of people have other language in use instead of standard mandarin in China, sometimes with their unique religion beliefs need to disseminate to their offspring. Scenario similar to that happens here and there across China, making the national curriculum unacceptable for various demands of people.
There is a famous idiom in China, “three blind men touching an elephant”, which means that each one of the blind man touched a different part of an elephant but fails to regard it as a whole. Regardless of discrepancies among different countries, the measure proposed in the statement lose a overall consideration, thus, is not justifiable.
