Education and social science

Education 

The Japanese education is well known for how demanding it is. and of course thanks to that system is how Japan has become one of the most important producers of technology in the world.

 

The Japanese education system consists in four stages. First, six year of primary school; second, three years of middle school; third, three years of high school and at last four years of university.

 

The Japanese culture has a strong impact in the school system. In the internet it is  easy to found a lot of pictures laughing about this situation. It is important to say that not only the people in Japan have this necessity of having perfect grades. But also the Japanese immigrants in other countries as well.

 ..

Japanese people are known for their Excellency in most of the areas that they study. But this has a problem. A lot of students suffer from a lot of pressure. This is due not just to the pressure put by their parent, but also due to the amount of subjects that they have every year.

In high school the attendance is voluntary. Well, that just is half true. mainly because of the same pressure put by their parents and the society. so it’s simple, it may be legal to do something, but it doesn’t mean that you should do it.

Well, the Japanese school year start in April and ends in March of the next year. Also, is divided in three parts: Summer, winter and spring. And, each one of them is followed by vacation. Nowadays almost all school has class from Monday to Friday. Except  for some private school that have class on Saturday also.

Things change from country to country. Here in Chile if a student (I am not talking about everybody) could just pay and get a degree they would do it.  A six day school week sounds like hell, in Japan a lot of students are asking to have a six day school week.

The upper education can be a two year junior college or a four year university.

Social Science

The mass in japan is moved by the relatively new phenomenon that now also moves the world that is called technology. Now, there are plenty of contests and conventions where people show all their inventions and technology advances to renew announce and exchange plenty information that can be useful to continue innovating and keep improving that technology.
 .

Al these events that take place in japan are coordinated by a society call “the robotics society of japan” their principal mission is to spread information about the ubication, the date and the hour of every contest or academic exposition made in japan. This society was established in January 28 of 1983.

 .

As I said the principal objective of these expositions is to show the final product of a entire investigation, that means, in every aspect of the science. the people that usually goes to these conventions in first instance goes because it causes curiosity to see what new it is shown, but deeply, other people see that conventions as an inspirational supplement of ideas to get new inventions.   
.

Historically those technology advances was made to facilitate humans life and to reach more activities in less time, that makes japan one of the most productive country in the world, because their automatized activities permit them to keep doing new things and progressing in many different aspects of the habitual life what makes a substantial progress not only in japan, but all around the world      
.
The main feature of the technology is to cause curiosity about what comes in the future. And that curiosity itself is the thirst of the human in keep going and leave the past behind.
