haih there is alot of things that i don understand at all... what are the goverment trying to do?? you know what am i saying?? they are trying to change the maths and sciences back to bahasa melayu....OMG!!!you said that the grade of maths and science have drop after changing into bahasa melayu... but then they only have started the project 3 years ago and this year is the first year of having maths and science in english for PMR who can you judge it??
after debating for some time if they did the right move to change maths and science subject to be taught in english and at last they implement it...what's their objective of changing this thing... well they want student to have a better control of english language (noticing the importancy of english language as one of the main language in the world)... well they have did so much and spend so much money to train the teacher...and i think their plan is working now...i mean you can't hope to have it work over night and you need time... i think this change have made a very positive change for me... i notice that i can spell better and learn more word..learn the right grammer and stuff and i personally think that my english has improve dramastically...plus i get alot of extra notes online from other country which is in english...and it has improve my way of studying from reading in various way...
now you tell me you want to change the whole thing to bahasa melayu??hmmm ok fine you say that the grade for maths and science have drop for malays... have you though of the reason?? ok it might be the language change and they do not understand...but then how about other race..maths and science has nothing to do with language but understand and apply.... if student don understand they can always stay back or ask teacher on the spot to reexplaine it in bahasa melayu...as long as you get the concept i think you can use it anyway...
i personally think that languange is not a excuse for dropping in grades...i think that what is important in choosing the language for teaching is the student find it easy to find extra information from other sources like the internet or notes from other country which will make the lesson interesting... student will naturally get use to the language after sometime using it....as they say pratice make perfect...
i hope that the goverment would really think about their decission clearly and look at the impact before making their decision...like i said before their desicion will affect the whole country's future and i don wish the goverment take us student as white mice just to try out how their plan work... |
