TOPIC: ISSUE51 - "Education will be truly effective only when it is specifically designed to meet the individual needs and interests of each student."
WORDS: 595          TIME: AM 01:31:22          DATE: 2007-1-31

In an idealistic society, every individual can get his latency full explored with receiving the education that is specifically designed to meet his needs and interest and on this case his contribution to the society is maximized. Notwithstanding, considering the following diversity of education and prejudice which has bad effect on the purpose of education, it is better for the government to guide and make criterion of education in practice.

Admittedly, every individual is different from others and we cannot hope only a particular pattern of education can satisfy all citizens. Some people are good at science while somebody is fond of art. As Confucius, an well-known educator in ancient China, said, "The way of education must be changed to fit the students' interest" , we should teach more knowledge of science to the former and more art skill to the latter. To the talented children, this approach is especially necessary in order to help them know more advanced principles, get success sooner and make more benefit to human being. In a word, different education is required in school.

However, when it comes to the diversity of education, we should realize that we can not design so much education to every different individual and neither can we know exactly what a person's interest and need--this always happens to the children for their interest is changing day by day and their latency is not able to estimate. If we stubbornly want to design various type of education, it will be on a huge cost on evaluating the latency and detecting the interest of people. Moreover, considering that every approach can be used only once, it is a tremendous waste to do that. Hence, putting the education under the guidance of government is an eclectic resolution and this guidance does not mean rigid control and instilment. There are many examples illustrating the detrimental effect of the abuse of non-guided education. In the 1990s, a biological teacher was appealed against by the parents' committee and lost his job eventually because he introduced evolution in high school, which is ridiculous in the religion of the community and as the law of United States, what a school will teach to students is decided by the parents' committee. This instance explain how awful it is that public education is control by non-professionals.

What if we consider the content taught in school? I think we should teach students the basic knowledge about the world and the society such as math, physics history, geography and basic skill to express and communication such as reading and writing. What is more important is to teach the student the core values on which the whole society depends to strive. These values contain tolerance, commiseration, respect and so forth. If the curriculum is decided on the local interest and inclination, whether these basic knowledge and value will be taught is doubtful. This doubtfulness has became reality in some school in black community--according to the notion of fairness, school made a decision that once a book written by white is recommended to students, a book written by black should be recommended, too. As we know, few writings of blacks are suitable for children for they usually tell the dark side of the society, which is better to avoid introducing to students. Therefore, the basic criterion of education must be made by the government or group of experienced educators to diminish the bad effect of environment.

In sum, diversity of education should be encouraged but the freedom of deciding teach-ralevant things can not be abused for the success of our next generation.

In a word, different education is required in school.既然兴趣对the talented是需要的，那么对于the ordinary students为什么兴趣也是需要的呢？个人认为此处论证不完整。可以从the ordinary出发，探讨大众的兴趣会如何影响他们的生活、学习等等。

In sum, diversity of education should be encouraged but the freedom of deciding teach-ralevant things can not be abused for the success of our next generation.

综合来看，作者对于兴趣的重要意义有清晰的阐述；另外，突出兴趣多变对教育的挑战也合情合理。那么政府对于education的指导与education的effectiveness之间的联系，如果可以阐述清楚的话应该是篇不错的文章。


以上纯属个人愚见，若有不当之处还望楼主谅解~~希望与楼主共同探讨、进步~~

哎，我没注意那个effectiveness……
我写的像是对如下题目的response
ISSUE5
"A nation should require all its students to study the same national curriculum until they enter college rather than allow schools in different parts of the nation to determine which academic courses to offer."

是有那个感觉，但是我想如果楼主可以在论证nationla curriculum时候可以说明，比如它有助于学生基本能力的培养发展，为以后更高层次的学习大下基础等，那不是就可以阐述教育的effectiveness了吗？所以个人觉得，楼主并没有偏题，只是论证尚未深入、详细~~

However, when it comes to the diversity of education, we should realize that we can not design so much education to every different individual and neither can we know exactly what a person's interest and need--[我觉得不能够设计这么多教育的原因又不能详细地了解其他人的兴趣，能知道也要花费大量的力气和其他原因（如没有那么多资源等），你把他们用neither nor连接，标明是同级别的事情，我觉得不是很妥当。]this always happens to the children for their interest is changing day by day and their latency is not able to estimate.

[我觉得你这段主要论述的是政府应该对教育进行控制，在这句话以前说的是很难了解兴趣或者你想说的是不能设计那么多教育，这句好后面说的一个例子来证明，如果没有统一的话会很有危害
总之我的感觉是不是那么得focused]

[这段我看得很流畅嘿嘿]

[我觉得除了第三段我看得有点不是很focused以外，基本比较流畅的。当然有可能是我理解里的问题
我觉得不存在楼上兄台说的effective的问题，因为我看了一下主题写作其他人的作品，还是有很大一部分人，把重心放在individual needs and interests这个角度的，虽然我自己写的是effecitive这个角度，不过我觉得只是个人切入的角度不同，不是什么问题]
