13. Questions for debate Pressure Education Pressure sometimes can motivate students to learn better and more. While others prefer a happy education. If you are the president of a school, what’s your choice for your students and why? Strict Childhood Education In many Asia countries, childhood education is really strict, for example, in Japan, in kindergarten they are taught to fold their jackets properly and always have tissue in one pocket and a handkerchief in the other. In grade school they learn to have three sharpened pencils in their desk- --not four, not two. Do you think strict childhood education is necessary? Out-school activities In many country like Germany or Norway, children don’t go to school afternoon to do activities or practice sports. Do you think it is a best system than in France for example? Do you think they learn equally than French children?
