THE TEACHING OF MATHS AND SCIENCE - Polls by Tun Mahathir

I believe many parents are interested to participate in the poll on whether you agree on the decision to teach maths & science in English.

I would predict that the poll end result will be biased to one side. The reason is very simple, those who vote online are from the cities and they will support the teaching in English(they support it). However, majority of the folks from the kampung or rural area have either limited access to internet or the use of internet among them are limited(they against it).

Personally I feel that the purpose of education is to make the students absorb and understand the subjects that they study. Therefore, the teaching using the respective mother tongue makes more sense. If the government wants to strengthen the English, pay more attention on teaching of English.

Hurry up if you want to vote, go to : http://chedet.co.cc/chedetblog/ (you can find the voting box on the right).
