人生就是無止境的學習。從幼稚園開始﹐小學﹐中學﹐大學﹐我們便不停學習新的知識。到了出來社會做事﹐還是要繼續進修自我增價﹐才不會被社會淘汰。在返學工作以外﹐培養嗜好也是一種學習﹐只不過從學習考高分和賺錢的知識﹐換成了學習不實用但感興趣的好玩知識。在我們學習的時候﹐心中常常有一條問題﹐到底要學多少才算學識呢。其實學習可以從淺入深分為六個階段﹐我們能夠以此為標準﹐憮心自問到底學懂了多少﹐衡量距離學成之日還有多遠。… [...] 前言﹕這是一個叫「兩周一聚」的活動。是網友米雪兒發起。每月十五日﹑三十日﹐一班住在世界不同角落的香港人都會一起寫同一個題目。今天是第十六次相聚，由Sherry… [...] 社會上對補習天王天后一般帶有負面印象﹐有些教育學者和政府官員﹐更視補習風氣為洪水猛獸﹐認為他們誤導學生相信考試主宰人生﹐剝奪學生愉快學習的童年。我對補習社沒有特別好感﹐不過倒擁護香港一直以來行之有成的考試制度。今天路過補習天后梁賀琪的網誌﹐她是全港最大補習社遵理學校的創辦人﹐閱讀她寫的散文下﹐發現她與我對教育的看法有多相同觀點。我對補習社是好是壞還沒有定論﹐不過梁天后為補習界在我心中加了不少分。順帶一題﹐我人生最敬重的老師沈Sir現在也是教遵理。沈Sir未當補習天王前在我們中學教物理﹐我們一班40人考會考﹐竟然有26條A。他可超過半班學生拿A﹐真犀利。… [...] This term instead of taking a philosophy course, I am taking a economics course, game theory.
