	Education - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Educational psychology is the study of how humans learn in educational settings, the effectiveness of educational interventions, the psychology of teaching, and the social psychology of schools as organizations.
		Educational alternatives often are the result of education reform and are rooted in various philosophies that are fundamentally different from those of mainstream compulsory education.
		Educational progressives or advocates of unschooling often believe that grades do not necessarily reveal the strengths and weaknesses of a student, and that there is an unfortunate lack of youth voice in the educative process.

	Education in Singapore - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Education spending usually makes up about 20 percent of the annual national budget, which subsidises public education and government-assisted private education for Singaporean citizens and furnishes the Edusave programme, but the costs are significantly higher for non-citizens.
		In Singapore, the English language is the first language learned by half the children by the time they reach preschool age and becomes the primary medium of instruction by the time they reach primary school.
		Detractors to the education system would state that this is more an indication of students' skills of using rote to prepare for a certain style of competition or examination, than their ability to think critically.

	Singapore Education
		Singapore had six institutions of higher education: National University of Singapore (the result of the 1980 merger of Singapore University and Nanyang University); Nanyang Technological Institute; Singapore Polytechnic Institute; Ngee Ann Polytechnic; the Institute of Education; and the College of Physical Education.
		The ministry attempted to persuade students and their parents that enrollment in the three polytechnic institutes, which offered diplomas rather than the more prestigious degrees (a common distinction in the British system of higher education), was not necessarily a second choice.
		Many of the settled education policies of the 1980s, such as the use of English as the medium of instruction, the conversion of formerly Malay or Chinese or Anglican missionary schools to standard government schools, or the attempted combination of open access with strict examinations, were the result of long-standing political disputes and controversy.

	The Gifted Education Programme in Singapore
		This can be explained because education, when characterised by new skills and knowledge, leads to an enhancement of human capital, which in turn improves the contribution of labour to the economy and hence results in greater growth.
		For instance, pupils were selected in Primary Three, at the age of nine, because of the educational belief that the earlier one intervenes in a child’s development, the greater impact this would have on his or her future advancement.
		By presenting the GEP in such a manner, the Singapore government sought to dispel concerns that the programme was elitist, stating that it was beneficial both in an educational as well as a socio-political sense.

	Brian's Education Blog • Singapore planning
		The rigidity of the education system stems from the fact that it is focused not on educating people, but on meeting the needs of the economy.
		It is still based on the old-style idea of centralised planning, with a ministry taking in all data and making a decision as to what sort of education is necessary for our children, with the belief that this will fit into the kind of economy we have in mind.
		My point was that the education system ought to encourage each person to study what he or she is interested and good at.

	Ministry of Education
		Although the National Educational Policy of 1962 and the Report of the Education Commission, 1972, both recommended the use of Malay as the main medium of instruction in primary and secondary schools, subsequent events determined a change of emphasis in the final choice of language medium for the country's national education system.
		One of the challenges for the Ministry of Education is to produce Bruneians who are able to play their part in the present day knowledge-based economy and yet, at the same, remain imbued with strong Islamic and Malay values.
		The merger was fully implemented in January 2002 with the transfer of the Department of Islamic Studies and all the religious schools under its jurisdiction to the Ministry of Education.

		Singapore’s attraction is its focus on teaching mathematical thinking, as opposed to rote problem solving.
		Singapore Math is geared towards producing mathematical thinkers, and it does this very well by walking children through all the component parts of a problem and then presenting them with the whole problem to solve.
		Above, I described a Singapore problem where the child counts backwards and then immediately is asked to solve a number of sequence problems where she has to figure out a two-step problem solving procedure: first, identifying the sequence as either counting forward or counting backwards; second, filling in the correct number to complete the sequence.
