Students should bring a certain skepticism to whatever they study. They should question what they are taught instead of accepting it passively.
------正文------
Education significant for the whole society in that it cultivates the future of the society, everyone knows this. But here there is another problems related with it. that is how to teach the students, whether make them accept everything that is taught or bring them a skepticism to whatever they study. As far as I am concerned, the student should form a skeptical attitude and habit to what they learn, but skepticism is not to deny everything, we must make a balance between them.
Having a skeptical attitude in learning means analysing, examining and scrutinizing ideas and thoughts of others thoroughly. This is a very basic quality for every student to develop. At the times of knowledge explosion, the increase of knowledge is far beyond our image. We can not learn everything we need in the future at school, we must meet lost of new things that we haven learned in school. In this sense, skepticism and thinking is fundamental ability for us to survive in the future.
Moreover, without skepticism, no progress will be made in any academic fields. With the development of the science and technology, lots of so saying ‘truth’ is not perfect, even wrong. It is the skepticism make us to examine and check the authority' idea and thought,, which color=#ff005b] On the contrary if every student was educated to accept everything was taught, they will not own the habit to suspect the idea they meet, which is significant in every great breakthrough, and the society can progress. In the past everyone believed Aristotle' theory that strength maintain the movement of everything, the heavier object falls faster than the lighter ones, the earth is the center of the universe, and so on. As Aristotle was the most authoritative people in the world and lot of our daily experience also prove his theory, nobody suspected him. Thanks to Newton, Galileo, Copernicus, and other science' skepticism to him and long term of hard work, we know the real principles of these. If nobody suspected Aristotle, we can not imagine what the world has been.
However, skepticism does not mean to veto everything, especially for the beginner like the students. Everyone' time and energy is limited and far from inexhaustible. It is important for the student to grasp hardy basic knowledge, which is significant for them to carry out their further study. Without firm foundation, every suspicion is only a dream. Somebody may reject this opinion that since some basic knowledge is not perfect, even wrong, it is no use to acquire them. Admittedly, some of those are not perfect, but only by the mastery of them, can we find the place that need complete. Newton, Galileo, Copernicus and many other scientists were all erudite, that is why the famous scientists no other than the illiteracies make the great contribution to progress of the whole human being.
In conclusion, on the progress of education, the teacher should help the student to form a skepticism attitude other than the denying to everything they meet and lay solid foundation to make greater contribution to out society. |
