Be Good...
Not sure how many of us can still remember what we learnt in 'Hao Gong Ming" when we were in primary school. Did it really impact us? Hee..
I just had my first lesson on Teaching of Moral Education (I). Note: It's Part One. One more to come. MOE really think it HELPS the kids. But...looking at the kids now..I think we know the results.
I've always thought it's a waste of time. I've spent 2 modules on Moral Ed in Year One already. It's good in one sense..cos it's the most relaxing lesson, no need to think, just drink tea and listen to my tutor joke...then crap for reports. haha..
On a serious note, I'm still thinking how I can be teaching kids about morals and it's implications on the gospel. Sadly, our government knows that we have to keep on teaching kids to be good, upright, decent, filial, etc. so that they wil not be corrupted in their thinking, esp. in this age of globalization. The fact is Man is sinful, but this is in total contrast to what we have been teaching in school, that by default, Man is good. The challenge for me is to fulfill my job as a teacher, to teach what I'm required to and be wise to know when I can be bring in the gospel.
