Education system In the modern world it's often difficult to find time and place to think a little bit about ourselves and our lives as a whole. Maybe that is the reason for having a diary or another pieces of paper where you can write down your thoughts. Unfortunately, I don't have enough time and patience to keep writing for a long time, however, I believe such essays to be good substitutes. Let's talk about education system, I hope you don't mind. Do you think that current system, including theoretical basis and different exams, is effective? To tell the truth, I'm not sure. Of course, theoretical basis is an integral part of education but, perhaps, while studying in the university it's wiser to pay attention to practice... Otherwise, it'll be impossible to prepare students for real tasks, assignments they'll have to complete. Frankly speaking, I don't think that practice on the 3rd, 4th course is enough... And what about exams? Undoubtedly, everyone ought to get knowledges in physics, mathematics and so on; but is it really necessary to study it so hard if the only case it can come in handy is study of our own children?! Is it fare that great students can ruin his/her diploma cause he/she is bad at IT? Is it fare that teachers who are to inspire students either don't know the subject or not interested in teaching at all? And after all every student is considered to pass exams excellently! It's high time to understand that not everything depends on us, students; there're a lot of things that should be explained carefully cause they're rather difficult to understand and that is what teachers are for! I don't know about situation in other countries so I'd like to know your opinion;)
