brain exercise is important!

This umpteenth time I met an educator or teacher who said that the philosophy of science is important. this morning, when a doctoral candidate was the presentation, I was invited to talk by a lecturer. he said "should not ngebahasnya simple. from the philosophy side only, can already be seen what should be discussed in his research. and all it can be seen also from our lives. "

when he heard this, I then asked him "why did not exist in the faculties of his courses this yes?". he only replied with a smile. whether it means anything, but apparently, the curriculum changes that have just done a while ago, still have not answered the main requirement for a candidate or a candidate manager researchers.

"You are expected to become a competent manager. soft skills you need to be trained. "said a department chairman in a different time. The same thing I asked, "why is not no courses that explore the thinking of the system?"

apparently, many teachers and educators have realized the importance of brain exercise, systems thinking and philosophy of science. but then, there nevertheless exist in the curriculum from primary school through graduate level, there is this subject, except in certain fields of study. the rest just dwell on the problem of technical ability, not on the ability of brain were comprehensively.

play-play is life these days, never separated from the formation of the brain. culture, the word that repeatedly mentioned, also born of the species if the brain works. so if you want to understand it, must understand the basic thinking.

may not seem strange to some who feel that, "a curriculum is to provide space for a capability. only students who are not qualified ". This is very counterproductive to the diverse learning from my interaction with various friends. there is tremendous potential of every individual, that it is an excess of individuals from other individuals. uniformity in building up capacity, are more likely to develop selective selection.

different from when I met with a group of students, who "never frustrated" because it did not go to school excellence. the ability of educators has encouraged these students develop creativity and achievement. is even, it could be better than winning the school output. "I was finishing up three comic" said one child. "I've finished a novel" says another child. "I became the champion in a race" said the other children.

brain gym would be better first enacted in every moment of every level of education. This will provide tremendous energy within the learning journey undertaken. curriculum change perspective, than just print the intellectual robot, into the curriculum to create is something that must be done immediately.

creativity, courage and sensitivity, some of the basic capital in building the character of a nation. and this can only happen if the leader has the capacity for it. if not, forget!
