The Big Mistake of "Learning"
How do you think about "learning"?
Is it "learning" to simply memorize a formula taught to you, or to have the teacher solve the problem and the student copy it down?
Certainly, the act of acquiring new knowledge and taking notes in a notebook is satisfying in that you have learned. However, I don't think it can be said that we have learned in the true sense of the word.
The thing is that,The accumulation of memorization and other patterned exercises, even if you are forced to memorize and solve them, are just individual events with no connection to each other.That is why.
in other words"I'm not learning to think for myself."This is what I mean. However
The cause of "learning the wrong way" is the school.
The thing is that,The reason why old-style classes are biased toward rote memorization is because they are more "lessons for exams" and "lessons for tests".
So, the mindset of "Let's get a good score!" is not about thinking, but about memorizing, and thereforeMore and more children are having difficulty in "thinking and acting on their own.This is why.
If your child has trouble thinking, he or she may be on the verge of falling into this negative cycle. So what can you do about it? That is.
"Communication with your child is key."
That's why we have decided to share some tips on how to raise children who can think and act on their own. So, we would like to share some tips on how to raise children who think and act on their own,Mr. Umeki, who is a practitioner of "Thinking Classrooms" and a teacher in Canadian public schools, will give a lecture for parents as a special guest lecturer.

About the workshop
A classroom where people naturally think is not something you can just say, "Come on, think.
The key is a preparatory exercise that makes you want to think more. In other words, through preparatory exercises, it is necessary to loosen up the rigid thinking that arithmetic and mathematics "have to be this way.
In the workshop, participants will work in groups of three on mathematically interesting problems that anyone can tackle. What skills will be acquired through the problems?
