Day 3 Journal

Prompt: Compare U.S. and China education; Compare aspects of historical impact to China and U.S. (6/9/2010)

The educational system between China and the U.S. are very different. While in the U.S, we have only five eight hour days of school per week and the summers are off. In China they have school six days per week for nine hours each day and they attend all year long. The Chinese system also has different activities than the US does. When it is time for their P.E., they go outside and just do exercises, while we do sports or cardio. They do not have most of the technology that we have in our class rooms, like projectors and computers. China’s history is well known by many people in China. Though, after I hear it, I can start to understand the history. How important it is to the people here. They like to preserve their history so they can show other people; and their race so they can have a better understanding for the future. In the US we don’t have as many areas dedicated to history as the Chinese do. Sure we have museums, but China keeps everything the way they first built it.
