For my classes, I have to do a study on Singapore education and
how it has affected Singaporean culture and identity. To do this
study, I'm running a small survey here to get some results.
Please, if you feel you have some spare time, reply to my
survey!
Many thanks, Thomas.
Please answer these
questions:
What do you think the
Singaporean identity is?
How do you think this has
shaped Singapore into its status today?
How do you think schooling
has influenced it?
Did you enjoy
schooling?
In comparison to many other
schooling systems, the Singaporean system has a lot of testing and
exams. What is your opinion on this method? Do you think it has
helped you in future life?
On average, how much
studying did you do per evening/week?
(For former students) Was
this amount of studying necessary in hindsight?
(For current students) Do
you think this amount of studying is necessary?
Did you find testing
difficult?
Did you rarely or frequently
have difficulties with teachers? If you ever did, what were the
main reasons?
Do you have any compliments
as to how the education system works?
Do you have any criticism as
to how the education system works?
Do you think that this
education system is one of the major reasons Singapore is so
successful today?
