Finnish's education vs Spanish's education

 

     With the video that I have uploaded, I realized why Finland is the country with the best education system and therefore, the hard work that Spain has to do to be able to get a similar level.

     There, teachers have a lot of freedom about how to do their classes and what material or facility use, here we have to ask for permission if we want to change the usual classroom for another different space. Our educational system is based on the Traditional Method, totally rigid, with a passive role of the student in which error is not allowed, however in Finland the student is the protagonist of the teaching-learning process, expresses his/her needs, risks making mistakes and correcting his own productions. In addition, they give their classes in a fun way, with games and using the technologies (videos, comics, music…), so we need to leave the monotonous and boring classes aside, where the teacher imparts the lesson and the students ask questions and do hundreds of exercises, and introduce the technologies and new methods funnier, although personally I think that this, little by little, is taking place. For Finns is more important to learn to think than to memorize.  I question everyday if a note is so important as to get to define your future, and although I think that it is  horrible, our government has a different point of view. Finally, and not less important, on the contrary, I think that is where the biggest problem of this country is, is that in Finland teachers are very respected and valued for their profession, nevertheless in Spain the degree of education is so undervalued, up to the point of being attacked by students or parents of them, without understanding that although the education must start at home, is supplemented by the one they receive in school, and therefore by their teachers.
