Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time. If corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people's. In the same way, children learn all the other things they learn to do without being taught - to talk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle - compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, let alone correct them. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.

If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can't find the way to get the right answer. Let's end all this nonsense of grades, exams, and marks. Let us throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons must someday learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.

Let them get on with this job in the way that seems most sensible to them, with our help as school teachers if they ask for it. The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the rest of one's life is nonsense in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours. Anxious parents and teachers say, "But suppose they fail to learn something essential, some¬thing they will need to get on in the world?" Don't worry! If it is essential, they will go out into the world and learn it.

What does the author think is the best way for children to learn things?

Cậu bé chú ý hàng nghìn lần mỗi ngày sự khác biệt giữa ngôn ngữ mình sử dụng và ngôn ngữ mà những người xung quanh mình sử dụng. Từng chút một, cậu bé tạo ra những thay đổi cần thiết để làm cho ngôn ngữ của mình giống như những người khác. Cũng như vậy, trẻ em học tất cả những thứ khác mà chúng học được mà không được dạy - nói, chạy, leo trèo, huýt sáo, đạp xe - so sánh sự thể hiện của chúng với những người giỏi hơn và dần dần tạo ra những thay đổi cần thiết. Nhưng ở trường chúng ta không bao giờ cho trẻ một cơ hội để tìm ra những sai lầm của mình cho chính mình, hãy để trẻ tự mình sửa chúng. Chúng ta làm tất cả cho cậu bé. Chúng ta hành động như thể chúng ta nghĩ rằng cậu bé sẽ không bao giờ nhận ra sai lầm trừ khi nó được chỉ ra cho cậu, hoặc sửa sai trừ khi cậu bé bị bắt phải làm. Chẳng bao lâu nữa cậu bé sẽ trở nên lệ thuộc vào giáo viên. Hãy để cho trẻ tự làm. Hãy để cậu bé tự tìm ra, với sự giúp đỡ của những đứa trẻ khác nếu cậu muốn, từ đó có nghĩa là gì, câu trả lời cho vấn đề đó là gì, cho dù đó có phải là một cách hay để nói hay làm điều này hay không.

Nếu nó là một vấn đề phải đưa ra câu trả lời đúng, như một câu hỏi trong toán học hoặc khoa học, hãy đưa cho cậu bé cuốn sách có lời giải. Hãy để cậu bé tự sửa lại bài tập của mình. Tại sao giáo viên lại nên lãng phí thời gian cho công việc thường ngày như vậy? Công việc của chúng ta là giúp đỡ đứa trẻ khi cậu bé nói với chúng ta rằng cậu không thể tìm ra cách để có được câu trả lời đúng. Hãy kết thúc tất cả những điều vô nghĩa về điểm số và những kỳ thi. Chúng ta hãy vứt bỏ tất cả những điều đó, và để cho trẻ em học hỏi những gì mà tất cả những người có học thức phải học một ngày nào đó, cách đo lường sự hiểu biết của chính mình, làm thế nào để biết những gì họ biết hoặc không biết.

Hãy để chúng tiếp tục công việc này theo cách có vẻ hợp lý nhất với họ, với sự giúp đỡ của chúng ta với tư cách là giáo viên ở trường học nếu chúng yêu cầu. Ý tưởng rằng có một cơ thể kiến thức để được học ở trường và sử dụng cho phần còn lại của cuộc đời một là vô nghĩa trong một thế giới phức tạp và thay đổi nhanh chóng như của chúng ta. Các bậc cha mẹ và giáo viên lo lắng nói, “Nhưng giả sử chúng không học được điều gì đó thiết yếu, những điều mà chúng cần để thành công trong thế giới này?” Đừng lo lắng! Nếu nó quan trọng, chúng sẽ đi ra ngoài thế giới và học nó.
