Issue 5
Should a nation require all its students to study the same national curriculum until they enter college, according to the author’s suggestion? From the aspects of practicality, advantages, and shortcomings, I would give my analysis regarding to this issue before reaching the final conclusion.
Firstly, it is impossible to realize the goal of absolutely identical courses in different areas of a nation. Culture, customs, education background and basis, and the development of economy vary throughout the nation, which limits the possibility of carrying out of the suggestion. Some courses, for example, mountain climbing, is without doubt a popular course in many cities with no problem to concern about. In poor areas , however, where government there has no ability to afford the equipment, how can children there enjoy the pleasure from mountain climbing?
Even the goal of receiving the same curriculum is hard to reach, it still has some advantages. By cultivating students throughout the country with the same system of value, it is easier to form a common value of culture and rightness, which will help promote the unity of a nation. In addition, since curriculum set by a nation must be based on an overall observation of all areas, is is more likely that this set of school courses is more balanced and well-rounded than the ones any single area designs which might be based on a narrower angle.
Thus, after a two-side analysis, I tend to put up with a compromising suggestion reflecting my view of this issue: a nation should regulate that the teaching of fundamental knowledge, social skills and moral education be instilled in every high school student, while additional courses which differs in different regions are also necessities in education before college.
