Seriously speaking...I busted my first paper today... There are a lot to write, but the time constraint was a little too much... What does the system expect us to do in 2 hours? 4 essays, 5 structured which require explanation... It's so 'cool'... Maybe i should have been categorized in the 'slow learner' category... I did jot down my points in the paper but it just remained in the task paper, not the actual essay paper... Having two lecturers shouting at me to stop was, well, surprisingly did not embarrassed me... I continued for some time shortly after they shouted...That's me, i'm actually rebellious... Cause the fact is that, they allow us to start on our papers 10 minutes later, and asked us to pass it up so much earlier...
After this experience, i doubt that i'll get a very fantastic marks... it's way down below from what i've previously gotten...It's not that we did not revise, it is just that this system wants our brains to learn, memorizing, analyse and interpret it just like a computer... Computers think fast, or should i say they do not need thinking at all... They just show whatever information that we wanted in just one click... Our brains do not work in one click for sure... We need time... automacity or not, that's not the point... cause information that we learn could never come out as what they want us to do in such a short time... How are we supposed to give implicit and detailed answers in just a nick of time... That's why i hate this 'fast food' era... Everything we do needs to be instant, and efficient... But how to be efficient? we'll be if the questions are given to us earlier, that's if they want a detailed result...
We have the knowledge...but i guess that's why all the geniuses failed under this system...They drop out and yet could create wonders and success..if only they are given time just then in school or higher learning institutions... They want instant information and instant working power... Just look at some of the very advanced population, suicides are high... why? cause they can't work like a machine, and they think that they are inferiors because of that....
knowledge which couldn't be spilled out is indeed torturing... looking at all the blank lines helplessly as they are swept away... great system of operation we have nowadays... and it's an irony too, cause these papers test on our knowledge of how to enhance the younger generations' learning and acquisition of knowledge... How would they expect us to give very humanistic ways of learning and teaching strategies if we ourselves are victims of the non-humanistic situation? That's when the era when the creation and formation of a bunch of human machines come will they realise that they are making machines out of humans... Only the tough ones who knows how to be like a machine can survive... god bless them, cause they'll never know the meaning of understanding... the affective development would certainly be minimized... I thought that the core problem would have been solved as some have realised the insufficiency of time... but the system carries on with the main aim of eliminating the 'slow learners' and 'slow producers' even though they have intrinsic motivation...
I wonder what else does the world want from us? do they want to remove the time span from us as well? i salute the drop outs as they have intrinsic motivation to survive and succeed even though the system abandoned them... that's the freedom of having time all to ourselves which promotes inspiration... cause they DID survive without it...
