This article is for a sound basic education system that will improve
learning in our schools.
Due to too many subjects that we offer in schools, these
has led to so many confusions, to
the African child, because our brains are memory storage for
any thing we see with our naked eye, or hear with our ears, just like micro
storage devices or better still memory cards that we use in our phones, it’s gigabyte
differs, some has 1gigabyte, 2gigabytes, to 8 gigabytes etc, which means that
it’s storage capacities are not the same, that is how human brains are, if you
check computer storage system, which is called random access memory (RAM). You
will also observe the same thing, some computer crashes are caused by its
multiple storage, meaning that the ram is carrying information’s that
supersedes its capacity and the good part of it on the side of the computer is
that it informs us on some occasions before they crash. That is also applicable
to human brain; most brains are not up to maximum capacity in terms of storing information’s.
Information’s
includes what we see, what we hear, what we learn, what we do etc, that is to
say, anything that comes across us are been captured as information’s,
including the subjects that we learn in schools. And the worse part of it is
that human brain does not give us crash warnings, that is why some students run
mad before graduation period, some starts misbehaving, some will become
unproductive, while some will try to correct it through forcing themselves to
do what they don’t like, or what is not regarded by law, i.e. the brain would
be scampering for what to hold up on, amongst the huge information’s stored in
it’s storage system upon these it crashes and becomes unproductive/useless, or
hold on any available evil activities within it’s reach, because it has
derailed or loosed it’s track and starts malfunctioning immediately, which is
termed as virus in the human storage system (BRAIN)
In our primary and secondary schools, we learn up to nine subjects in a week, leaving us with nothing
to concentrate on, for the sake of our storage system we are supposed to be
offering five subjects, from Monday to Friday, amounting to each subject per
day, and two service teachers for each subject to enable thorough teaching and
learning, and they should teach that child the importance of what he or she is
learning to enable such child build his or her thought around his or her area
of concentration for a better future for all of us, I would also prefer linking
two subjects making it to become one subject, for proper understanding.
As we have a lot of
schools including government and private schools throughout the country, we
should also make these schools to be efficiently productive by having their
particular area of teachings or teaching departments with proper standards,
i.e. those that concentrates in teaching three art subjects including English
Language and Mathematics, and those that teaches three science subjects
including English Language and Mathematics in a well organized and understandable
manner. We should try our best to correct this garbage in garbage out
information processing, if we keep on taking all these subjects at once that is
the way we will keep on loosing them on the go, because our memory storage can’t
create space on its own. As human beings increases in number so should we
create space for other brains to contain information’s too. Let’s make the
world a better place for all of us, for comments inbox me through my e-mail
