Sounds great. Fortunately/Unfortunately with the way Mc & Ai are progressing, virtually any computer (that cost < $2k) will soon be able to score math (& English/Chinese) tests or exams up to 99% (or 90%) within 7 years. 😅

Thanks for a refreshing take on a pressing subject. If money and prestige is the goal of education it's a trend toward a stratified economy that regard low pad work as low class. When degrees become devalued and lead to low paid work because of over-supply of graduates it's time to re-evaluate the purpose of higher education. Our motivation to achieve should be powered by our talent and not by aspirations to be the envy of our neighbour. We will become a more harmonious and equal society when all work is respected as contributing to the prosperity of all

That’s indeed a bad title. The Chinese title of this video is more appropriate but cannot be translated into English directly.

The reason I did a video and still pushed for the ideals of the video. Which promotes a collective classless society which uses technology to automate as much as possible. To provide all basic needs and more at NO cost and expand it even beyond the basic. Is based on the point made in the later half of what is discussed in the video. I view life as having time and easy access to follow multiple dreams and aspirations. Not I want to be a star or famous, I want to be wealthy, I want power and control. These are superficial and cause the imbalance in a society. I want a society of haves and eliminate the have nots parts of society.

I think education is very important. But not for more money, fame, or any other superficial ideals..I think learning should be a central driver for the whole life span. I focus on education for critical thinking and imagination. Critical thinking is the most important criteria I think. And the only way to get to a comprehensive critical thinking. Is to learn about all things over a life time. And having easy access to learning in a collective who centers on providing basic needs and more. For the time to learn and keep learning. . . .

I agree completely. The way of the scholar is not to amass money, power, or status, but to enrichen oneself with knowledge, to learn how to use power and share its benefits, and to realize that status is a shallow and fickle measure. It is not to stand tall over others, but to use one's knowledge to help others stand up. The foundations of a good education - critical and creative thinking - prepare oneself for lifelong learning, which is essential in an accelerating society. Scientists, engineers, doctors, and even investment bankers don't work solely for money (and I would not hire anyone who did.) The main motivation is to put their education to its practical use - creating new technology, building infrastructure projects, keeping a community healthy, and financing all of the above in an efficient and effective manner. So it is frustrating to be underemployed, to be unable to use one's knowledge, but as someone who graduated later in life and didn't begin their career until their forties, the lack of education and being incapable of contributing more is even more frustrating. For every disgruntled graduate, there are far more disgruntled laborers stuck in less than mediocrity. The first few years out of college suck for everyone, even the 'best and the brightest', but all work provides experience (even if it is a negative example). It pays countless dividends in every aspect of life.

I am Asian but not Chinese citizen. Math was one of my favourite subjects in school and I actually don't understand the hatred of Math. The frustration, confuse to understand the questions and build the logic to get the answer was actually fun for me. And I can feel ultimate satisfaction when I able to get the answer 😅 And I had never even went for additional class in some "extra education school" I just did what my Math teacher gave and asked questions/ stupid questions to understand the question. And for me that is education (to understand, build logic, solve problems) if these people can't see what educatiok rewards them for working life. It shows that they have never learn

Me too, I had never gone for a single tuition class or needed to study textbooks to understand the standard syllabus. Even when the teacher was terrible and the lecture notes were terribly written, it was possible to decipher what it was teaching with a couple rounds of analytical studying. Although there was one asshole who not only was a terrible teacher and provided terrible lecture notes, he also set questions completely outside the syllabus, the whole class was groaning mentally during the exam, but luckily the faculty stepped in and overruled his marking, giving most people a B+ instead.

I do believe each society is trying to balance supply and demand. In my country (USA) we over produce lawyers, MBA's and bankers. So you end up with ads soliciting ppl for lawsuits everywhere you go. You get MBAs managing mcdonalds and chickfilas. You get finance degrees managing simple IRA and 401ks. And, those are the good ones, while many others simply do unrelated jobs. I assume it is the same with China in regards to STEM. I don't think it is wrong to chase a dream, esp when you are from a poor family, town, region. But I do believe as a society we need to create a parachute system to gently catch those who fail through no fault of their own in becoming that 1 out of 1000, top lawyer, top STEM engineer, top investment banker.

I really enjoy your videos and rhetorical style. The government needs to take a more active role in creating a Commons wherein there are jobs that are not bound to the market. Right now, the market controls land. There needs to be non-utilitarian uses for space.

Many never know this basic truth. To be able to master, write and read several thousands Chinese characters is itself a IQ and maths booster. So if you're trained in this way you are already start life at a level above most educational systems around the world.

👍👍👍 even back in 70s we too get full marks for maths, I'm a Chinese

dont think he has answered the question put in the title

enlightening, worth pondering!

Chinese students don't spend time on active shooter drills. It's difficult to care about math when you know you may be next to die at school.

When I was in China in 2009. I notice they started School at 6am. Got few hours break then back to School till 6 or 7pm. I was in a small town but all the students said that's how the school schedule was.

I think becoming a college student in 50 years ago is much more difficlut than today.

Chinese students are not only good at Math. They are at the top in the global PISA test scores in Math, Science and Reading. My country Singapore is number 2. Both China and Singapore are meritocratic societies. The US is a plutocracy with meritocratic aspects. The Chinese invented the examination system of selecting the creme de la creme scholars to take on leadership roles.

👍💯

So true, so true, a very good speech. Bravo

you got a good point

I think that a way of living for the future that will ease some of these tensions is a lifestyle both modern and agrarian. Often by the time people are truly successful they just want to retire and have a garden, spend time with their grandchildren etc. I think the people of the future can live in sustainable intimacy with nature without giving up modern comforts and prosperity and without so much competition

I hope to see a society where people value their education and put their best into it, but not to the point that it becomes cutthroat and destructive. Education should bring about BOTH character AND competence. That is, you get people who are exceptional best at their fields -- but who are also respectable, compassionate and aware of those around them -- rather than "I'm better than you, sucks to be you, thanks for being my footstool". If you're gaining competencies in areas that are over-saturated that end up damaging society as a whole, that needs a serious recalibration. At the same time, if the society isn't able to produce the level of necessary intellect for itself to function healthily (enough healthcare for its own population, for example), that needs serious recalibration too.

When I was in college the newspaper employment section was full of want adds for computer programmers with promises of disproportionatly high salaries. Later I found out that the companies that were advertising these jobs were employing only about one in a thousand of the graduates with those degrees. The rest were left unemployed with useless degrees. Government must protect us from these imbalances by letting the truth be known. Academic competition must be fair, healthy and honest. The aims carefully considered for the benefit of all,... otherwise you end up with represive states and bloody revolutions.

I am in South Africa and i passed maths very well under the cambridge GCE certification. To my surprise only when i came to electronics engineering thus the time i came to understand what i have been sturding in high school up to magnetic lavitation technology. From the basics of logics of algorithms of and gates nand gates in micro digitals. Our systems are not built up to recognise and spear heard us further on by such we end up branching off jus to put food on the table.

There are degrees and degrees. What is the point of learning useless degrees such as social studies, media studies etc. The brightest students should be encouraged to go for degrees in science and technology in the best Chinese universities. Students who are good with their hands should be encourage to do vocational studies so they can make things which people want to buy. I want to know how many physics or mathematics or engineers in China cannot find work.

Wow You are 100% correct What you said was what I had gone through. That was before 1957. Actually not everyone is a academic or scientists. Trade is workable to earn a living. I

i think education should be perceived as a form of nutrition. A particular spectrum of education is needed to aid in intellectual, moral healthy self-fulfilment and self-guidance. A certain band of education is needed to fulfil the requirements of providing material service for others (and receiving material gain). For the individual, the two may or may not overlap. The individual only knows .. once s/he educates him/herself.

The world would be a much worse place if there were no meritocracy.

There should be more technical schools instead of universities, societies require skilled plumbers, electricians, hairdressers to avoid the oversupply of university graduates.

The Chinese men got better hair in pre-90s.

They are not good at Mathematics but memorising them. On postgraduate levels, you will find many Chinese students quickly lose their grip on advance mathematics due to their lack of understanding in fundamental Mathematics.

hi. think to the answer of math problem, it is because math has an absolute answer of correct ro wrong while others are more subjective. Countries like China has a huge polulation cant not afford a exam allowing multiple answers to debate. So math is ideal for Chinese to compete their IQ absolutely. Same as other heavy populated nations. Westerns? They are just lucky to have sizable polulation. If they have billions of people, the solution will be the same.

Kris 也标题党了？😂 that said, I reckon China can do so much in recognising the value of vocational education and raising the social respect for blue collar workers. The collective obsession with higher education has created so much social anxiety and resulted in qualification oversupply and higher unemployment, while some industries suffer skill shortages

Too bad if people only get an education to make a lot of money. Much better to get an education in an area that is important to you and that you enjoy. That way it is possible to enjoy work and enjoy life.

.........just have to look at Math Olympiad over the years # 1 Team China #2 Team USA ( Chinese B team ) #3 Team Canada ( Chinese C team )

They practice more or they have parents that are good at maths, thats the reason

The promise of education as elucidated in this video focused too much on materialism. Education is a mechanism in which the mind is tooled. This can be in a formal or informal process. I don’t think the main issue is that there are too many being educated but a misappropriation by society how the educated can be applied. The video did make a good point that other forms of education such as vocational skills is improving. The universal dream theme is also a fallacy. In the future world of AI and robotics, it is a fool’s errand to continue to define success based on human economic value and throughput and productivity. This is where I hope China’s socialism experience come to play instead of following the West’s success formula.

excellent assay! But the title "why are Chinese kids so good at math?" has little connection to the essence of the assay. nevertheless, an excellent assay!

Even education itself is inequal. Kids in Beijing go to North Pole for their summer vacation, while kids in some northwest areas don't even have a proper road that connects their home and school. Kids from wealthy families can go aboard for a bachelor degree, while some families can't even afford tuition for normal Universities. This is simply inequality, and yes, it's only a matter of time that unrest happens. We all wonder why a socialist country ended up like this.

Meritocracy

Another choice is to be more entrepreneurial and start your own business. Don't just wait for someone else to employ you. Learn to think out of the box and be more creative, and explore what you can produce to sell to others. Even selling stuff around the world has to be customised to different countries' tastes and habits. Therefore go travel the world and gain more life experiences. A society usually has a structure of a pyramid, with the working labour class forming the largest stratum of society, with the bottom class being usually poor. When there are too many university graduates in society, there will be fewer people willing to do the essential manual labour. One can only have so many managers in the companies; unless they are expanding overseas and requiring more managers to be sent overseas. Another solution is for the country to develop more high-end, high-tech industries to employ these highly qualified graduates at the bottom level. As some have said here, the pursuit of knowledge should be driven more by one's passion instead of being mainly motivated to just beat the competition of your peers. Learning new things should be a lifelong process. Remember to learn to enjoy life too or life will become dull.

Update us: How is the military training and anti US propaganda is going on in primary schools?

And yet all the great progress in math at the highest levels for the past thousand years has been limited to Europeans and Indians. By the way if you know of any great mathematical treatise, theories etc from ancient China through the middle ages up to the present, please educate us on then8.

It has nothing to do with race. It has to do with the age you prep the child. If the child learned to focus on learning early in life (before the age of 8), the child is going to be a self-learner, and going to do well later in life.

I think you’re analysis of is slightly skewed by western didactic reasoning. The point of the high school exam is not just using meritocracy to stratify social classes, that’s the typical western winners ad losers thinking. In the relatively short years since the opening up, China has had to make light speed adaptations to create a moderately prosperous society. Many mistakes were made but many solutions were reimagined AND implemented. The reason is that Chinese socialism begins with the leadership filling the mandate of bettering the lives of its population. Unlike the Americans, Australia and UK, this political leader serves the oligarchs with the money and power to buy their favours. It’s why nothing gets done to better the lives of the majority while the elites keeps getting richer and more powerful. The student that stood up to contest that professors views may have been overly zealous but behind his words is the basic humanists confusions ideology Chinese people all fundamentally believe in. The win win ideals of “the rising tide raises all ships “ is steeped deep into our subconscious. As long as we hold onto our deep rooted values, the answers to nagging modern problems will find a solution. Unlike the west whose problems ever finds the will to be fixed, China will always find the solutions of inequality because there’s always a will to make it happen
