"教育新思维~网络教育的展望"教育讲座

由快乐家长会主办的教育讲座 ~ "教育新思维~网络教育的展望" (Future of eEducation
Development)，将于5月6日，早上10时正，假独立酒店举行，联办单位包括古晋中
华第一中学校友会妇女组，人联党青年团以及古晋青运。

21世纪被通称为网络世代。现今的学生有2件事情无法避免，既是上课和上网。现今，
孩子们的生活都给网络世界渲染，包括网络电视，网络游戏，网络新闻，网络社区
等等。网络的虚拟世界把孩子们教育成需要"即时的取得"，"即时的互动"和"即时的
回应"，很自然的孩子便被训练成"马上就要"的急性子。

倘若学生被赋予选择权，在书本和电脑之中选其一，相信大部分学子都会选后者。
可是学校的制度仍旧以书本为教材；因此，学校生活与孩子的现实生活比较就相形
失色很多。根据大马第九计划的记载，教育部共投入了马币1。5亿进行教育网络化。
由此可见，网络教育的发展是势在必行的。

3年后，90%职位需电子技能

在第2届欧洲电子技能周举办之际，欧盟委员会20日发布报告说，与电子讯息技术相
关的技能对经济和社会发展非常重要，预计到2015年，欧洲90%的工作岗位都要求就
业者具备电子技能。

数据还显示，尽管欧洲近年来陷入严重的经济危机，失业率大幅度上升，但资讯技
术产业就业人数仍保持3%的增幅，并且这一产业对欧盟得GDP贡献也越来越大。

在2007年9月，欧委会就通过了提为<<面向21世纪得电子技能>>得政策文件，指出电
子技能方面得提高将有力于经济增长，提高就业率，增强全球竞争力。

3 Steps to Successful Sponsoring

There are 3 Steps to Successful Sponsoring(RTM):

1. Build Relationship

To deal with people with sincerity and not just for mere business dealing. People will sense whether are we after thier pocket or are we interested in being part of thier life. It is normal for people to care for themselves more than care for others. However, if we wanted to be successful in people business and networking, we need to learn how to care for people more than for ourselves. As the saying goes "People don't care how much you know, until they know how much you care."

2. Build Trust

People buy all day long. Why people buy because they buy for the benefits. So as a solution provider, we need to be trust worthy. How to be trust worthy? We need to be someone who are professionally equip with relevant knowledge and expertise. Remember, in business world, we are facing fiece challenges from competitors and alternative solution providers. Therefore, if you are not equip with necessary knowledge and people do not see us as a source of solution provider, they will go to someone whom can offer better options to their needs and answers to thier problems.

3. Build Motive

To attract people to join your wagon and work as a team, we need to know what are thier motives, i.e. wants and needs. Usually people need money, but they do not think in term of monetary, instead people think in term of changing current unwanted senarios to better lifestyle. Therefore, in order to move people to change, we need to share about dreams and wanted lifestyle that allow more quality time with family members, more freedom to do what pleases them, less stress in working life and more positive in future outlook. 

With the above 3 Step to Successful Sponsoring (RTM), I do believe anyone could position at the strategic mindset and receptive attitude that achieve effective sponsoring.

自信教育

教育的目的在于提升孩子生活的知识和办事的能力, 并以建立个人的自信心为目标.

一个有自信的人, 是懂得为自己的人生负责, 选择做自己生命的主人. 赏识教育之倡导人周弘说: "孩子是信出来, 不是打, 不是骂出来的." 神经科专家洪阑教授也说: "父母对孩子的态度, 决定孩子的命运. 尊重孩子使孩子懂得自重, 自重让孩子懂得自爱."

 一个人的自信, 来自于经常做擅长的事, 也既是发挥优势, 展现所长, 扬长避短. 反观, 没有自信是由于长期的被要求做不擅长的事情, 自然就感觉受挫, 挫败感不断的恶性循环, 自然就滋生忧郁的情绪.

人们常说现在的孩子道德败坏, 品行差, 不受教等等. 其实, 问题不在孩子, 是大人没有扮演好自己的角色.

大人们经常不允许孩子用自己的方式学习, 老以为孩子不学, 就是孩子懒惰, 不上进; 但事实恰恰相反, 容许孩子用他们擅长的方法学习效果会更好.

孩子学习有5种的学习类型, 即认知型, 构思型, 触觉型, 视觉型和听觉型. 每一种类型都有不同的学习喜好. 当大人们一味的要孩子通过听和看来学习时, 对触觉型的孩子来说无疑就会被打败, 因为触觉型的孩子需要通过行动的参与才容易上手. 另外, 认知型的孩子, 往往是闹情绪阻碍了能力的发挥, 他们不是没有能力, 只是爱发脾气, 只有动之以情, 他们才会愿意配合来学习. 另外, 构思型的孩子, 需要思考的空间, 并很容易陷入思想的泥沼, 想不通就会钻牛角尖, 想通了才会往下学.

此外, 孩子更有不同强弱度的十大智能, 即语言智能, 数理智能, 人际智能, 自律智能, 空间智能, 律动智能, 操控智能, 音乐智能, 图像智能和观察智能. 到底你的孩子强在那个领域, 又弱在那个领域呢? 所谓天生我才必有用, 真正的天才也就是发挥所长, 扬长避短如此而已.

最后, 我认为大人们应该扮演好以下3种角色:
1. 成为孩子的拉拉队队长 ~ 赏识孩子, 相信孩子会成才, 经常告诉孩子他一定会成功.
2. 成为孩子的伯乐 ~ 发挥优势, 展现所长才是成才之道; 一味的勤能补挫, 只能平庸度日.
3. 成为孩子的情绪出口 ~ 陪伴孩子成长, 需要学习柔软的身段, 不是硬碰硬, 情绪常被压抑的孩子长不大.

孩子都有其独特性, 让孩子们用自己擅长的方法去学习, 以孩子自己的韵律, 注意力和学习速度做学问, 最后每个孩子必定会出人头地.

砂拉越政府将引进印度专才

砂拉越政府大事发展的能源再生走廊(SCORE)将引进印度专才, 原因是本地专才不足.

根据d-sector.org的报道, 印度每年有2.3百万的大学毕业生, 等于是砂拉越的总人口; 印度拥有的理科系大学毕业生比欧盟或中国的理科生还要多; 印度预计每年有750,000硕士生和博士生; 印度拥有全世界第二多科学系和工程系的专才; 印度也是拥有世界第二多医学专才的国家.

试想象, 一旦建国以来对于移民政策管制十分严苛的砂拉越, 煞时间开放印度专来砂, 是否会造成本地大学毕业生的工作机会被印度专才或中国专才取代? 企业以及国家对人才的需求越来越吃重, 正如李光耀说:"新加坡的生存靠人才."

这不是危言耸听, 因为印度和中国的就业机会短缺, 所以这些专才都会往欧美国家寻求发展. 但当欧美国家的经济萧条, 促使许多欧美大企业裁员, 这么一来, 许多的印度和中国专才自然就会转换方向往东南亚跑.

由于2020年宏愿和发展所需, 很自然的联邦政府和砂州政府必然会求才若渴, 当本地人才无法胜任和填补工作岗位时, 对外引进专才是必然之举.

亲爱砂州的父母亲们和学子们, 你准备好面对被取代的危机吗?
