JOURNAL ENTRY 6

‘ 3 Idiots Eğitim Sistemindeki Bozukluk’ is not only funny but also a beneficial video that helps us realize teachers’  mistakes. First of all, the expression on the teacher’s face and his attitude towards the student is really disturbing. For example, he says that the student regards himself as more skillful than highly qualified teachers. However, the student does not seem as if he had such a claim. The teacher thinks that he is master and everybody should respect for him. In other words, nobody can be superior to him, but he does not realize that this makes him less respectable. Secondly, he is not aware of his mistake. Instead, he labels such issues philosophical things and nonsense. Moreover, he is trying to force the class to obey his rules by saying ‘Quiet!’. On the other hand, the student reflects his idea by using the right exercise. Today, we have ‘horse-race’ concept. All students in competition with each other. They want to be the best, and they lose their curiosity and enthusiasm for discovering new information. We put them under the pressure of being the best. Furthermore, I admire his bravery and ‘lion’ example which clarifies the distinction between well-trained and well-educated. Thirdly, ‘I do not teach you engineering but how it should be taught’ is one of the most significant sentences used in the video. It emphasizes that although we have educators who are expert in their fields, we do not have the ones who know what the right method is. To sum up, the video is both funny and beneficial since it sheds on light teachers’ mistakes while educating students by using a funny technique.
