Dream on.
Such questions will never be tested. However, the underlying skills in evaluating a claim stands. The danger is that we equate truth with whatever we read from the media etc. The knowledge skills gained in PW and GP equip us with the ability to question critically and liberate ourselves from these illusions.
Read the above article first and try to come up with your own evaluation of it using reading and AQ skills.
View the following comments below...what do you think?
Some evaluative comments received so far from social media-
1. hmmmm...does education = smart?
Schleicher says it's part of the culture of many Asian countries for parents to prioritize their children's education that "it starts with resources, the priority they assign to education," he explained. "In these countries, parents and grandparents are going to invest their last resources, their last money into ... the education of their children."
2. perhaps education = higher chance of becoming knowledgeable, but not necessarily smart per se
3. education = smart but not necessary wise...
Using your own experience or knowledge, how would you AQ this passage OR decode these questions based on this social issue?
‘Education should
only be concerned with what is useful in life.’ Discuss.
Do schools try to
teach too much?
