(by BSP Scholars)"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In the spirit of providing a platform to voice their ideas and showcase their writing skills, BBS KJS presents to you <em>Opinion<\/em>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>By Clara Evangelyn<\/em> of JC2 Mendel<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the progresses we\u2019ve made in society, advancements in our current education system are yet to be found. Like a dystopian world, such system has our students run a perpetual cycle like lab rats on a wheel. Therefore, should schools continue in-classroom learning, or adapt a completely different \u2014and equally completely risky\u2014 alternative?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"328\" height=\"154\" src=\"https:\/\/zone.binabangsaschool.com\/enews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/images-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zone.binabangsaschool.com\/enews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/images-1.jpg 328w, https:\/\/zone.binabangsaschool.com\/enews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/images-1-300x141.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 328px) 100vw, 328px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In-classroom learning has dominated the current education system. Be it through standardized testing, graded assignments or hour-long lectures, 21st century teaching advocates more inactivity than engagement, with students mindlessly following the same, autonomous routine they have for 5 days a week, 38 weeks a year. That hence begs the question: what method of education might just be our game-changer, our diamond in the rough capable of rocking the way students are programmed to learn forever? The simple answer to that might just be the counterpart of our aforementioned topic, outdoor-classroom learning. Utilizing the aspects of<br>experimental practices, outdoor-classroom learning allows students to translate what they have learnt from behind a desk to real-world applications. For some, such a method of teaching could pave the way for better and long-lasting education. For others, it is merely a fantasy built to challenge the long-standing education system; to shake the foundation found from the Industrial Revolution. Perhaps the best question to ask ourselves is if we&#8217;re willing to put in the risk and change something that&#8217;s long been established for centuries, or stay trapped in a system that<br>could do more harm than good for future students, centuries more down the line<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-vivid-purple-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Note:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-background has-very-light-gray-color has-vivid-purple-background-color wp-block-paragraph\"><em>* The opinions expressed here are solely exclusive of the author(s) and due care has been exercised to avoid any form of plagiarism as much as possible.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-background has-very-light-gray-color has-vivid-purple-background-color wp-block-paragraph\"><em>* If you have an original write-up that you would like to share, why not be part of BBS Opinion?
