We need an education system that will produce a new generation of students and graduates who value differences and possess questioning minds. TODAY, I would like to revisit our national education philosophy and propose some ideas and perspectives that might lead us to consider rewriting or changing the objectives altogether. The first is, of course, the idea of education that prepares children for this country and not for a global existence. I would like to propose two objectives as our nation’s education philosophy. I do think our national education philosophy has served its purpose well because it was constructed in a certain context of time and need – but I believe it has outgrown its purpose.
