It has always been a complex issue when ti comes to what makes for effective education. Is it
reasonable that only a specifically designed education for each student can be truely effective, as the speaker asserts? In my observation, the student-oriented education is indispensible in order to maximize the effects of education, however, it is not necessary that education is customed to every single student.


It is most effective beyond all doubts when education is planned in accordance of students' apitude. C. M. Schwab ever said, a man can succeed at almost anything for which he has unlimited enthusiasm. The obligation of education is to help students find their own interests by providing convenient study paltform of various forms such as competitions, regular communications among students and teachers and diverse practical activies. Moreover, educational institutes should offer as many overall faculty and facilities as possible in order to trainning students' both basic and professional skills in the fields of their interests,
and only through which can students' potential abilities be motivated. In short, spcialized education for students is essential to cultivate their interests and corresponding skills and thus effective.

To the contrary, a teacher-centered education would smother students's enthusiasm, which proves counterproductive. How can one imagine that a teacher serves to
enhance students' cultural qualities if he or she alway guides sudents to do things by his or her own preference regardless of the students' real thought. And how can one imagine that students who are all indued with the same ideas and trained for the same skills in spite of their own specialities. Thus, a teacher-oriented education will never be advisable.

However, specialized education to every single student is impossible or even harmful sometimes. Not each needs can be met because teachers and devices in schools are limited. All the schools can do is to gratify students' desire to the best of their competence. And to be certain, there are students out there that put forward some ridiculous requires owhich simply can't be realized.

In the final analysis, unless situations that some irrational requires are proposed, it is undoubted that education should be well planned in order to meet the requires of the majority of students in order to acheive the maximizaiton of educational effects.
