The Importance of Education Level of Education Flow of Ideas Nursery school/ Kindergarten/Pre-school + Develops social skills and emotional intelligence (~learn how to express/control/manage emotions and understand others → empathy) + Enhances cognitive development (~nhận thức): differentiate the rights and wrongs; improve dexterity: enhance fine-motor skills and hand-eye coordination skills => Provides a strong foundation for future learning (~nền tảng) Primary/ Secondary/ High School + have common sense + Builds/develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills + Offers a wide range of subjects to explore interests/ talents Eg: 1) Maths -> develop logical thinking skills // nurture interests in science & technology 2) Literature -> develop writing skills (imagination, creativity, flexibility) (~ sự linh hoạt) => Prepares students for higher education and the workforce (~lực lượng lđ) Higher Education (Colleges/ Universities) HỌC + Offers specialized knowledge for specific careers Eg: specialized knowledge -> job + Calculus (giải tích), algebra (đại số), geometry(hình học), applied mathematics (toán ứng dụng) -> an engineer + Human physiology, biology, anatomy, medicine -> a medical doctor CHƠI + Provides opportunities for personal growth and development (eg: social activities, interest clubs, voluntary activities) => Opens doors to well-paid jobs and career advancement (~ sự thăng tiến trong cv), career prospect (triển vọng cv) 1.What are the benefits of attending nursery school? 2.What skills are developed during primary and secondary education? 3.What are the benefits of higher education? 4.Why is it important to explore interests during primary and secondary education? 5.How does higher education prepare individuals for the workforce?
Different types of learning Type of Learning Flow of Ideas Distance Learning = Online Learning Advantage - Offers flexibility and convenience for learners: enables students to learn at their own pace (~tốc độ, nhịp độ); access online class anytime anywhere they want; don’t have to spend hours on daily commute just for their study - Provides access to education for those who cannot attend in-person classes (eg: working adults, people living in remote areas, disabled people) Eg: Zoom/ Google Meet/ Microsoft Team - online learning/meeting platforms -> create virtual classrooms -> students can gain knowledge/ skills + obtain degrees/certificates without physically attending school *no need to wear formal clothes to attend classrooms - Provides access to a wide range of courses and programs => Offers the opportunity to learn from experts or professors around the world => Enrich knowledge (~làm giàu thêm) Eg: Coursera/Udemy/Skillshare - online courses => courses provided by overseas universities => learn from experts or professors in different fields such as IT, marketing, finance, you name it Disadvantage: + lack of interpersonal interaction: slow response from teacher if you want to ask something + easy to be distracted by other factors such as social media, or family members (pets), surrounding noise, you name it. + technical problems such as Wifi disconnection, computer failures, energy outage (~mất điện) + technical skills required from students -> not appropriate for the younger children or kindergarten level students >>> these factors can act as a hindrance (~sự cản trở: obstruction) to students' academic performance Language Learning Advantage - Enhances cultural understanding: gain a deeper insight into their local practice and customs;...--> allow for cultural preservation: upkeep and maintain local traditions - communication skills=> Opens doors to new job opportunities and travelling experiences
Eg: In Vietnam -> English, Chinese, Korean, Japanese -> jobs in different multinational companies + travelling abroad experiences + migration (~ sự định cư) experiences to those countries - cultural appreciation: be more empathetic when people behave differently Disadvantage - Learning a second language - Unfamiliar pronunciation features (sounds, stress, accents, chunking ngắt nghỉ, intonation) + grammar + vocabulary that learners struggle with - Due to a lack of environment for practice -> a hindrance to language skill improvement - Cost a lot of money/take a lot of time - Difficulty in choose a suitable language to learn → without practical application → waste time and effort in learning but get no results; all efforts and time invested come to naught Eg: Learn uncommon languages like Arabic —> cannot be applied to real work >> Advice: For these reasons, individuals should consider different factors to make the best decision 1.What are the benefits of distance learning? 2.How does language learning bring benefits to individuals? 3.What are the advantages of online learning? 4.How can language learning open doors to new job opportunities and travel experiences? 5.Who is best suited for distance learning?
Fundamental subjects Fundamental Subject Flow of Ideas Mathematics + provides a universal language for understanding science and technology + develops critical thinking (tư duy phản biện) and problem-solving skills + enhances logical reasoning (thinking about sth in a logical way) Science Provides insights ~ knowledge into + the natural world (the human body and the environment) + technological advances such as AI, robots, automatic systems, you name it. Language + Develops communication skills & the ability to express ideas + enhances reading comprehension skills + offers insights into diverse cultures Arts + Develops creative skills => experiment with different techniques => create unique artworks + Be a source of inspiration // a means for self-expression 1. What is the role math plays in education? 2. What are the benefits of studying science? 3. How can language studies enhance reading comprehension skills? 4. What are the benefits of studying the arts? 5. How can science and mathematics be used together to solve complex problems? Comparison between Science vs Art subjects Science Subjects Can be abstract (trừu tượng) and challenging/tricky (thử thách/khó) to understand for students. Can be /ˌfɔː.mjəˈleɪ.ɪk/ = formulaic (công thức hoá) >> leave little room for creativity.
