what really matter......

Been months never even watch our local tv channel, however yesterday RMVB was out of stock, unable to sleep so accidentally 'bump' into a talk show, never really bother which station, but i guess most probably TV7 coz TV3 talk show host definitely will not hav the gut n spirit to really host a topic in a way that i saw in the lady host, start to feel like our local tv station will hav a slight hope....
The topic was regarding English as medium language to teach Science & Maths. Been ages never really get to view such a standard talk show in our local channel, but i guess is not bad, they even went out to the street to collect views fr the publics, but not just one, at least 10 public opinions were shown, the target group which included all level of public fr various ethnic group, as for scientific research, this kind of sampling is consider unbias, a standard one. Guess what? they all supported the teaching of both science and maths in English to be continue, i guess i'm too one of them.
However when the show invited a special guest, a Prof Emeritus fr a local u, i started to feel like...duh......?? is this the level of our leading academic?? i think one of those aunty n uncles fr the street will even hav a stronger stand n clearer point to support his or her own stand in compare with a so-called high ranking academic in voicing out ones opinion n point of view... ok, the main thing that i wanted to blog is not this, but there is a point fr the so-called Prof Emeritus that support his stand on not to use English to teach in Science n maths. 'Student will not learn well if the language they use in the teaching process is not familiar by them, teaching in BM for the maths and science is a must to ensure that student learn'.
Wow...this is the point of view fr a high ranking academic!!! HELLO!!! what about young children fr Chinese, Indian and other ethnic family background that just enter school?? do they too familiar in BM at the beginning?? Do u think that these young children will too speak BM at home?? duh...... they too r not familiar with BM but how come they r able to do well in a later stage? Language is to be learn, the earlier the better, usage in maths and Science will definitely help them to utilise the language they learn, i don't think that this is the problem of familiar or not with a language. No matter what language u use to learn, the most important is the learining and teaching attitude in both the teacher that is teaching and the students that r learning. Even if we manage to change back to BM, but if those teachers attitude still the same 'tak apa' style, 'buat kerja sendiri'.... 'ulangkaji sendiri'.... coming to school is just a job without any passion to teach (and some don't even show up in the class for the whole semester), i bet our younger generation will still not b able to learn a thing....... how pathetic is our education system nowadays.... so, those so-called academics, open up ur eyes and help safe our younger generations of Malaysian, stop bludering with some non issue's issue.....
