是这样,别往蓝翔大学,蓝翔中学去挤独木桥。

I suspected this after my daughter's first year at University of Ottawa, where she came from GSS with a 92% average.
However, it took $40 000, failing classes, dropping out at the beginning of third year without a refund of $4000 tuition that semester, and struggles of developing unwell mental health with anxiety and depression over UofO marks vs. GSS marks, and medication after medication from UofO's affiliated doctor.
实在 受不了,排名147的也能叫好学校?
如果你在北京,学校排名在150名,你都不好意思和别人说你是哪个学校的。

昨天娃领回来一道题,高中生全班不会,我一看,中国三年级奥数题。我这考大学不及格的差生三分钟解出来的。一个猴子有75个桃,每天留一部分再吃一个,连续六天,最后一天剩一个桃。每天留的是1/2,1/4,3/4,3/5,5/6,11/15,请把这六天留的桃排序。这种题一出就应该知道它考你什么知识点呢。两车相遇问题,开锁问题,浴缸放排水问题,植树问题都是国内三四年级的奥数通用题型。不知道这里拿奖的几分钟做出来。上次拿的那道两车相遇题,这里的医学院学生,两个大博士,在校大学生鼓捣的汗都下来了做不出来,国内初中过来的一晃脑袋式子就出来了。儿子说自己弱爆了
所以我说学校第一不说明什么。这题其实很容易。猴子都做出来了。
 
80分以下的真不少, EOM的“分数屠夫”老师们太生猛。:(:mad:

几年前有个家长受不了了,捅到媒体了,说孩子这么用功,分数咋这么低,太欺负人了。校方支持老师做法,回复家长,如果受不了,学校不能因为个别人不喜欢而减低难度,建议家长去别的学校拿这学分。

EOM周围补习班那个多啊。

Math class doesn't add up for parents at Earl of March high school

New math can make you cry. New math can make you laugh.

Let’s start with the crying. Here is Shabana Baig, a bio-medical engineer and the mother of Abdullah Baig, a former Earl Of March High School student in Kanata.

“It was the final exam that did it, that made a lot of us snap,” remembers Shabana. “It was one question. That’s all the exam was, one picture of a bridge, and you were supposed to use the math you had learned that term to analyze the bridge.

“The students were left writing. Page after page of writing, hoping they were talking about the things that mattered. There were no equations. There were no formulas.

“This was supposed to be a math test, right? A MATH TEST!”

So frustrated were some parents after seeing that grade-11 math test they set up a committee to examine how math was being taught at Earl of March.

They also held a public meeting for parents and students. (Here is the crying part.)

“I remember loving math class,” says Sabana. “But at this meeting, person after person stood up and said they hated math class. Just hated it.

“At that meeting students cried. Parents cried. It was just incredibly sad, the frustration that was in that room.”

Just how frustrated? Well, the final report by the Earl of March School Council Math Committee ended up being more than 300 pages.

Some of the findings will probably surprise you. Let’s start with Three-Before-Me. (This is the make-you-laugh part.)

Three-Before-Me is a teaching method where a teacher will not answer a question from a student unless the student has first posed the question to three of their classmates.

It is called “inquiry-based learning” and at Earl of March it was rigidly enforced in the math department, to the point of farce on many days.

“I cannot tell you how many times we’d approach a math teacher for help and they’d just say ‘three-before-me’,” says Abdullah Baig, who graduated from Earl of March last year and is now a first-year bio-chemistry student at the University of Ottawa.

“But how does three-before-me help you when NO ONE knows the answer?” continues Baig. “Sometimes you need to be taught how to do something.”

And that’s it. The entire new math debate in that one quote.

In a reaction against teaching by rote — or “killed by the drill” as math tables and basic arithmetic operations were once called — the Ontario government some years ago moved toward inquiry based learning, or “discovery learning” as it is sometimes called.

Inquiry learning means students are encouraged to figure out correct answers on their own, or collaboratively with their peers. It is supposed to encourage “critical thinking.” Under this educational model teachers do not teach so much as they “facilitate” or “guide.”

It is a great, warm-fuzzy theory.

And ever since we’ve been using it math scores in Ontario have been plummeting. Dropping like three stones in an ignorant sea.

“There are some things you just need to know,” argues Shabana. “You shouldn’t have to figure out everything in this world. Surely there is a place for knowledge. And surely one of those places is a math class.”

For what it’s worth, the War-and-Peace math critique by the parents at Earl of March was accepted by the school, and some changes were made this year.

The school board is also aware of the math debate raging in Kanata and other parts of the city.

“Math instruction is our area of greatest concern,” says Pino Buffone, superintendent of curriculum for the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board. “But the answer is not a return to the old days of rote instruction.

“What is needed is the right balance between problem solving skills and operational skills. That is our goal. We are hearing the message from parents and others, and that has always been our goal.”

Operational skills, by the way, are times tables and long division, the carrying and borrowing of numbers. Your old-school math instruction.

Buffone won’t say whether the proper balance is there right now. But the whole affair might remind you of a famous new-math joke (a limited comedic genre, granted, but still fun on occasion.)

The problem with inquiry learning is that students have figured out four plus five is the same thing as five plus four. What they haven’t learned yet is that four plus five equals nine.

Good luck out there.
你们EOM的牛娃,大学成绩如何?
 
这我同意。一群家长拼着命想把孩子往蓝翔送,

家长把孩子拼命往蓝翔送,如果家长是做计算机或者工程的,十有八九脑子坏掉了;有学非计工的把孩子送去学的;还有是孩子有那个天赋。这个年头在加拿大,谁会拼命。

其实苦着呢,如果房子多几套,银行数字几个米,社会关系一大把,谁还把孩子往斯巴达式的蓝翔送啊。
这些我同意。苦一点没有关系,前途不乐观。

其实最好是学医,但是不是每一个学习好的孩子适合学,另外难度挺大。
 
如果家长是做计算机或者工程的,十有八九脑子坏掉了;

你这说法就很极端了。走蓝翔,技术方向谈不上高大上,但也不至于如此全盘否定。

这其实是个类似自由市场自由调节自我适应的机制。老中无论从文化,基因还是社会价值角度,吃技术饭,蓝翔饭是相对容易在华裔不占主流地位的地方生存的,STEM方向还是在美加最最容易进入中产的方向。

其他方向不容易,知道好几个例子华裔进了大藤的文科人文类的找不到工作,最后还是去读COLLEGE的计算机才算稳定下来。说个传媒上的例子吧,比方播音员,如果没有目前社会对少数民族还有点保护的大政策,那些印裔和华裔的播音员几乎没机会上台。在某做市场营销的场合,要有人念英语,主管者明明白白在有少数民族雇员在场的情况下就说 要anglophone, 听出啥意思了吗? 一个亚裔或少数民族中100%这里长大的估计是拿不到这职位了。但这话本身却没有种族歧视的嫌疑,但操作的人很清楚到底啥意思。

选蓝翔,自力更生,以后在工作城市也能买得起类似瑞琪的房子,光荣着呢。当然并不是所有人都适合这路。
 
村里中文英文法文三好,深谙N种文化并会融会贯通的老中娃不说如过江之鲫,多如牛毛,也是大有人在啊。
我怎么觉得这个几乎很难做到。个人认为,大部分我认识的中国人都算不上中华文化融汇贯通(包括我自己)。

我清华毕业的,这道题我也做不出来。麻烦你把答案贴出来。:monster:

愚以为中华文化中倡导的中庸、内敛、谦卑等和西洋文化倡导的正相反,归根结底是文化根源不同,这里的cbc除了相貌没变肤色没变多数连中国话已经说不利落了,何谈能够运用两种文化并融会贯通?现在的国内也不像十几年二十几年前了,英语好的一大把尤其年轻人,数理化从小进行的是高难度训练,秒杀这里的二代,那什么才是他们自身的优势?不是浅层的会几门语言,而是真的了解并能运用两种文化的人才。这种了解不是道听途说,照本宣科,而是通过居住、留学等长时间的融入学到的。到了高中做的大project,像英语、法律、历史等文科类课程,没有一定的思想深度根本拿不到4+,即使现在的国内,需要的不是涮水蟹,而是了解西方乃至西方人思维方式的人尤其那种国际项目公司。

不是说最低工资都可以买锐鸡山寨的房子吗?怎么就变成了蓝翔毕业才行了?那可是20万年薪啊:eek:
