Educational systems around the world are well sophisticated and refined to produce high academic performance and cultivate personal growth of children. Wherever you go to school, your education system is mainly influenced by the culture and the mentality of people in a specific country. Yes, no system is perfect. Some, however, managed to stand out above the rest.
Who are they?
Japan
Developing character is more important than knowledge
Anyone who has visited Japan, will notice that the Japanese are polite - with impeccable manners. This is because the local culture focus seriously on developing the character of the child before it enters the traditional education system, complete with formal examinations and tests.
During the first few years at school, the child develops skills such as respect, compassion and generosity. Learn the difference between right and wrong, what is justice, self-control and determination. In this way it was able to acquire a sense of balance, which will help him to succeed in the future - both in school and in life thereafter.
Japanese students clean their own school
Quite schools hire cleaners to do the job. In Japan, however, classrooms, corridors, a canteen and even the toilets are cleaned by the students themselves.
They are divided into groups and deal with it every day. Thus hem child learns how to clean and how important this routine, yet accustomed to teamwork and knows he must respect the labor of others.
Finland
Less is more
The education system of Finland is also quite successful. Partly this is due to the idea that "less is more". Teachers in the country spend approximately 600 hours per year of instruction (i.e., about two times less than those in the US for example). The advantage of spending less time in front of the board is clear - teachers have the opportunity to invest the rest of his time in professional development. And this in turn leads to higher quality lessons.
Children spend more time outdoors
Finland and other Nordic countries, including Norway and Sweden, stimulate the release in nature. Consequently, local children spend large amounts of time outdoors in the game. This is seen as an important component of the educational system.
Even in the coldest winters schools organize educational trips in the woods or mountains. In addition to encouraging young people to be active, the time spent in nature makes people happier and has many positive effects on the brain.
Singapore
Large investments in technology
Singapore is one of the most successful education systems worldwide. Local governments invest huge sums in IT support within the classroom - both for the good of the children and teachers.
In Singapore we find digital textbooks, high-speed Internet more accessible educational materials (especially for students with families with lower incomes) and whatnot.
How important is the positive psychology
In recent years, Singapore has held many reforms in the education system. One of them includes the addition of lessons on social and emotional skills. They focus on recent findings related to positive psychology. Positive education is seen as a fundamental part of the classroom. It cultivate and shape the ways in which a subject is taught, and stimulates positive thinking in adolescents.
Germany
No comparisons between schools
When running competitions or exams, often we have a habit of comparing performance in different schools. This has great psychological pressure on children, not least because they are expected to be among the best. In Germany, such things are not published. Accordingly schools do not worry constantly about their reputation.
In Germany also students and teachers are not monitored as closely, which in turn does not harm the creativity of the teacher. Thus the focus is on the educational process itself, not the results. Children do not feel so much pressure and enjoy the knowledge they learn.
Less segregation between children in different learning levels
Separation of children at different levels of training (depending on their needs) is a standard practice in many schools around the world. In Germany, schools are regulated so that they can cultivate and serve the needs of adolescents from different levels within the same environment. This in turn eliminates the stigma that goes hand in hand with segregation and makes the learning process more flexible.
