Why is Israeli education excellent?
For a long time, many parents in Taiwan require their children to learn a lot of talents, especially English, math, and physics, so as not to lose at the starting point. Education in Israel is just the opposite. Although it started late, the subsequent explosive power was completely over.
In the past two decades, I have often seen Taiwanese
students at all levels win the International Olympia Math Competition or the
International Invention Award. Some national university professors often boast
of publishing many "excellent papers." "However, for more than
70 years, the country has been unable to cultivate Nobel Prize talents alone,
nor has it seen that these winners can start-up and develop large-scale
enterprises. On the contrary, Israel is the opposite.
Education in Israel
In the OECD's assessment of school children's learning
ability, Israel lags far behind Taiwan. The latest survey shows that Israel's
mathematics ranking is only 41 (Taiwan's fourth place), Israel's scientific
ranking is only 41 (Taiwan's 13th), and Israel's reading ranking is 34
(Taiwan's seventh), not as good as Taiwan. However, facts speak louder than
words. Israel is a new start-up country, with an average of 1,800 start-ups per
capita. The number of engineers per capita is the largest globally, and the
number of patent applications is also the largest in the world. In the past 20
years, 10 Nobel Prizes winners were born. It can be seen that the hour is gone
and never returns, the big is not necessarily good; the hour is one hour, the
big is not necessarily bad.
Someone once said that there are no Israelis in any experiments conducted by top American universities, such as Harvard University or MIT; there are no Israelis in the office in the Silicon Valley high-tech park. What kind of education or environment can enable Israel to cultivate so many Nobel Prize winners, top scholars, innovative entrepreneurs, and military strength? The reason is the excellent education in Israel. From kindergarten or elementary school, Israel has allowed children to grow up in an open and free environment, cultivated the ability to think and judge independently and have the courage to debate and challenge the truth. It mainly uses problem-based learning and uses field problems to stimulate students to find solutions. For example, if the desert is short of water, how to find water? They believe that the purpose of education is to allow children to engage in meaningful learning, explore themselves independently, and provide solutions to problems encountered in real life, rather than participating in international competitions and fighting for vanity. Before graduating from high school, they developed this learning habit, which can be used in military service, so their defense force can be invincible and become unstoppable.

The compulsory education age in Israel ranges from 5 to 18
years old. After the age of 18, men and women served as soldiers. No one
complained. Rather, it is considered an honor, a soldier. It is more important
than going to college. On the streets or beaches of Israel, you can see young
men and women carrying rifles at any time, a bit like cowboys in the pioneering
period of the American West, with pistols hanging on their waists. However, no
one has used the rifle without authorization. Female Israeli soldiers served
for two years and joined the fighting force for three years. They don't care
about the salary; they only care about contributing to the country. Everyone is
the heroine of a hero.
The key lies in their spiritual education, such as the
Israeli national anthem "Hope": "As long as the heart is deep,
the Jews still have desires, looking at the eyes of the East, looking at Mount
Zion. We have not lost two thousand years of hope: to make a free country; it
stands on Mount Zion and Jerusalem. "The referendum decided that their
national anthem does not have any party or party national thinking, so everyone
likes to sing and is proud of it, especially when it comes to national
celebrations and international competitions. When soldiers defend the country,
they will sing the national anthem to express gratitude, encouragement, or
condolences. This is often touching because they experienced the pain of the
Nazi Holocaust in World War II, which made them cherish the country's existence
and honor.
In contrast, our national anthem is the Kuomintang national
anthem, which is puzzling. Li Mingjing, a professor in the Department of
Sociology at National Taiwan University, sent a questionnaire to students in
his "Sociology of Music" course, asking them: "What song do they
want to permanently disappear from the earth." "Mature point" Li
Mingzong believes that both songs are both propaganda songs full of political
authority, so they are generally not liked by young people. They should be
related to the students' gradual reflection on military martial law history and
the desire for judicial reform in recent years.
