Excessive curiosity
is not exactly regarded as a virtue, and yet
a healthy inquisitiveness is a prerequisite
for success for quite a number of professions.
The education system in many countries today
is based on rote learning from the time a child
enters pre-school to the time he sits for his
final pre-tertiary school exams.
Children
are being schooled, but where is the actual
learning; the development of analytical
skills, creativity and curiosity and mental
development? One proven method for children
to develop these skills is by excelling
in the area of mental arithmetic. |
