Taiwan Nobel Winner's view on Education

Mr Lee Yuan Ze, Taiwan 1986 Chemistry Nobel Winner, pointed out his education belief in Sin Chew news paper 9th Jun recently. As a successful scientist, his view is worth as reference for Malaysia Education Ministry to reflect on. Education can not be equated to Training. Training is about repeatedly learning/practice by student till perfect. Education is about nurturing student the ability to solve problems. Obviously student with exploring/query nature will encounter setback to grow in our current school setup. Our school is providing Training curriculum system and not Education curriculum system!

What do you think? Do you think our next generation can make it in 21st Century? Check out IKIM views by Nik Roskiman Abdul Samad This proves that our education system has flaws. We just do not have enough leadership to make the change.....
