Students in Finland won’t have to study subjects. Soon, their classrooms would resemble conferences where “topics” are discussed. 芬兰学生将不再按学科学习。很快，学生们的课堂就会变得像开会一样进行话题讨论。 The education system is Finland is about to undergo a radical and fundamental change, despite enjoying the distinction of being one of the best in the world. The education department has decided to scrap the eons-old method of “teaching by subject.” Instead, the country will now involve the children to help them learn and question by evolving to “teaching by topic”, shared Liisa Pohjolainen, who is in charge of youth and adult education in Helsinki – the capital city at the forefront of the reform program, “This is going to be a big change in education in Finland that we’re just beginning.” 芬兰的教育体制在全球首屈一指，然而这个体制却将发生翻天覆地的变化。芬兰国家教育局已经决定废弃“分科教学”这一亘古未变的教育方法。他们将会让学生们通过“话题学习”的方式来学习和提问。负责赫尔辛基地区（教育体制改革一线城市）青年和成人教育的Liisa Pohjolainen表示：“这对芬兰的教育来说是一个巨大的改变，而我们也只是刚刚迈出第一步”。 The education system, though appearing to be radical, is quite logical, explained Pasi Silander, the city’s development manager, “What we need now is a different kind of education to prepare people for working life. Young people use quite advanced computers. In the past the banks had lots of bank clerks totting up figures but now that has totally changed. We therefore have to make the changes in education that are necessary for industry and modern society.” |
