Education

Although we do not realize it at the time, at least I didn’t… eduction is so important for our future career. I’m member of this focus group of the ROC, it’s the school our trainees come from. To be honest, the school struggles with kind of a bad reputation. The group I’m in is formed to improve the quality of education and give teachers more insight into the market. My personal experience are divers, on one hand we recognize the general complaints, but on the other hand, we did have some excellent trainees too. 

The stage we are in now, is that of advising about the new curriculum, we think the focus should be on the basics before going into subject-specific software. One thing that amazes me is the role of the student in all of this. Of course, most ‘kids’ are sixteen, but still, some of them surely can contribute to the way they would like to be taught. 

What i’ve come to appreciate is that I’ve had a good education, even though at the time I believed my teachers weren’t all that bright 😉 Off course, I already was a genius 😉 Looking back I think they did a fairly good job!
