You know that the average person uses a lot of computer-based learning in one or two days, but this one is the best time to teach ourselves about self-understanding. With the help of the computer, we learn to read, write, and write. It’s not just about knowing how to read.
qatar is a small country in the Persian Gulf, but with a lot of people of English speaking backgrounds. You can probably guess how much students here learn in a single day.
When we first visited qatar, we did all of our teaching in English. But that made no sense. We were teaching the same material in a language that is spoken by roughly two percent of the population. And that doesn’t even cover the standard lecture format (which was in English). For example, the class had to learn how to write, because English is not the only language spoken in qatar. And there are many other things to learn from the computer.
Thats the problem with the qatari education system. It is not designed with students learning one at a time. It is designed to be a series of courses with one-on-one tutoring and group activities. And for that reason, students here in qatar learn a lot more than they do in western societies. However, they are only exposed to a certain number of subjects per day. They have to do their homework by the time they reach the end of the class.
In qatar the government forces teachers to give classes in their own country. And that kind of makes sense. The qatari government was founded with the goal of developing the country, so it makes sense to give students a more global perspective. But there are those who complain that the qatari education system is too restrictive, and that it doesn’t allow students to learn as much as they want.
This is a big deal for both parents and teachers. If you want to be a teacher your parents have to agree on exactly what you’re supposed to do. The problem with this is that it just makes me wonder how in the world the government would allow students to learn. Especially as they’re trying to learn what to do when they’re not prepared.
