the "u" turn

[this post strictly from my point of view as a student and future educator and the citizen of malaysia]

Have you ever been in the cross country race.. and you just wanted to quit after I say one quarter of the race? Well that is exactly what is happening now. The psmi have been dismissed by the ministry after 5 years of implementation. Really? Are you sure you want to quite the race? That would be the small voice you will heard when u decide to quit the cross country but then you will also heard another tiny voice said you think you can do it before right? Wasn’t’ U worked hard practicing for this race? Do you really wan to quit? Ok that would be the voice of the student who happens to be in the transition period and I would proudly announce that I was one of them.

Through out who eleven years of being the primary and secondary schooler, I learn the Science and Mathematics subject in BM and I am really telling you that it was a great moved in 2003 that the government implement the psmi. I was quite jealous of my junior where they can actually learn the subject I love in English.i was in form 5 that time. During my physic tuition classes, my teacher, who happens from the bom baby era keeps telling us how unlucky we are to learn it in bm since we wont b using it in matrix or uni since it would be all in English. Futher more, the theory and terms mainly used in science and math subject it mainly taken in English. Its either be direct translation or completely opposite. For example I don’t really understand why halaju is a. actually a is taken from acceleration and why it is sodium cloride in salt but we call it natrium Klorida? Confiusing? Yes it is~he also kindly pointed that our lesson is for the knowledge not solely for examination. Well that’s what we have in the future now aite? I, my self have face this situation, I learn the science subject in bm at school and now at uni, I need to learn the whole new basic things because the different use of terms and honestly it was like learning the whole new lesson back again.

Learning in English is not in term of the content only. As the language teacher I would like to point out that with the science and mathematic in English, the proficiency in the language will be improves. Why is it? with the use of English in the classroom for other subject, the amount student spent with the language increases and it will be another extrinsic motivation for them to acquire the language since they need the language in order to survive other subject. Hence at then end the level of proficiency will always be the same, the urban school student would be excellent in term of language compared with the rural area since the used of English language is exceptional. They only need it a few hour per week. If they are unable to learn the skills, they just listen their teacher babbling about in the classroom and go back home and forget the language altogether and the cycle keeps repeating.

Well that is my personal opinion about the whole thing. Frankly speaking I am disappointed with the whole new situation. Disappointing enough that my friends and I was looking for another country that use English as their second language and implement in science and mathematic subject [and we found it!! Korean used it!!] I just hope the government will discuss through about this issue because it is not just about me or my friends who enrolled in this programme [which one of their steps in the first place in psmi] but its about the future generation. The quality of their education and our vision of providing a well equip generation for the development of our nation. Isn’t it what our philosophy of education is all about?
