In the first stop of the second season of
, Zhou Yijun came to Singapore, a developed country in Southeast Asia. Under the predominantly Chinese population structure and "high-pressure" social policies, most families, schools and even the entire society in Singapore have the shadow of typical "East Asian education". Due to the lack of natural resources, the government can only invest in people. Paying attention to teacher training means educating people fundamentally. In Singapore, teachers are the most diligent lifelong learners. What they learn is not "what to teach", but "how to keep improving". Students also face competition from an early age. Schools generally end very early in order to allow children to have more experience. Time to go to extracurricular tutoring. Singapore, which has repeatedly topped the world in PISA exams, also represents the highest competitive pressure on Asia’s education model. "The fear of losing" has been engraved in the genes of every Singaporean.
As a high-quality content jointly created by Youku Documentary and Zhou Yijun, the second season of "Childhood in a Foreign Country" not only hopes to truly present educational concepts in different cultural backgrounds in content, but also hopes to inspire Chinese parents through a series of observations and visits. Reflection on education can alleviate one's own anxiety in the parenting process to a certain extent. "Our generation will be different from our predecessors in terms of values and education methods, and we must find a new language to communicate with the next generation." Therefore, while critically looking at the past education system, we also want to understand the new How will the system be established? This documentary takes us to find multiple possibilities for education by presenting diverse educational methods.
Education is a country’s definition of citizens and a culture’s understanding of people. Its importance is self-evident, but what kind of education do our children need? There is no unified answer in itself. After appreciating different education models abroad, we found that culture, economy and social forms all affect a country's education level; mature education will eventually feed back the country's economic and even cultural progress. The second season of "Childhood in a Foreign Country" not only focuses on the education system, but also inspires the audience to think about more issues such as gender, war, fairness, etc. by observing the culture and history of society, making education not only a matter of concern to parents, but also a matter of concern to parents. Become a proposition for everyone throughout their lives.
