The minister of education and science Levon Lazarian said today
that the educational system should become student-centered instead
of teacher-centered. The minister said we are losing our position
in the world in science and comprehensive changes should be made to
resist "downfall". He said the problems are more management related
rather than financial. The minister is concerned with education more
at the moment, particularly with 12-year school system which launches
this year. "I have the impression that we have taken the same 10 year
program and made it 12 years," also saying the junior and mid schools
are clear but there is no concept for high schools yet. By the start
of educational year everything will be ready, including textbooks,
the minister said. According to him, some parents have taken their
children to schools last year because they do not trust the new
system. He also said that 12-year school system is not bad and his
cousin will go to school this year, too.
