I think you guys are confusing technology with it's application. US owns technology, innovation & engineering. It does that by investing crazy billion dollars in her word class universities. Countries should emulate US high education systems. US=Universities.(Degrees) Now where German excel is it's famed vocational training and education (VET). Here millions of Germans out of high schools are taught practical skills and taken through apprenticeship. There is less focus on universities like you find in US and many other countries but on practical knowledge and skills.German=Technical/Vocational Colleges (Diplomas) UK excels in both primary and secondary education - with it's O & A -level highly regarded for imparting basic education skills. UK =Primary & Secondary education. And for China....Chinese just instill incredible work ethic on it's citizen - kids study for incredibly long - their parents work even longer and live in factory dorms. vaxx: 2 Likes |

rvp2018:i dont see why Vocational work can't be embedded as part of university program in Ghana, 10 polytechnic had been converted into technical university. the student literarilly learn vocational work along with research work. The past Ghana govt really work on this area. 1 Like |

I think that is a HUGE mistake.We did the same in Kenya and we are now trying to make ammends. Everyone was happy as every college became a prestigious university. . Universities are academic. Their focus is research. They won't have time vocational training - practical skills. In any case - you don't need a lot of university graduates - a lot of theoreticians - you need very few - maybe less than 10% of the people going through universities. You need 90% of rest studying vocational and technical hands on skills. I think we tend to copy the US systems without understanding it doesn't work for a developing country. vaxx: 1 Like |

vaxx: @bolded...free things are nice but they breed laziness & entitlement. It could get out of hand quickly. Ask South Africa. Watch out. I believe people should pay something, so they don't start thinking they're owed something just for being alive. Free stuff = no value = no sense of achievement. Nanny state. Sometimes I feel the government does this to keep the people depended on them. 1 Like |

XhosaNostra:Yah you talk sense! One of my big surprise when I landed in SA was seeing the huge quantity of food wastage. Many kids there are overfed. Your school feeding programs is superb in Africa.I even saw some teachers eating the same food which pupils were consuming. But in Tz,most of school feeding schemes are still not good enough. You will hardly see a teacher eating what pupils eat. That means our meals are not good enough. I can't say SAns are proud.You don't have much pride. I think the reason why most of the kids look down on meals is just the lack of proper upbringing and they are getting more than what they need 1 Like |

rvp2018:There is a high concentration amount of engineering and innovation that either started in Germany or was heavily influenced in Germany or by Germans . just think about rocketry, the automobile and several automotive technologies, even the American space program all have their roots in Germany. There is an unusual concentration of high technology and research in Germany, which you won't find in the US. obama was about rolling out german educational model for Americans before he ends up his tenure 3 Likes |

The motor engine has not changed since I don't know 18th century. Germans are NOT doing innovation like the US are doing. They are consuming and applying those innovations. You just need to see how many patents the US files. Only the Chinese are competing. Germans in early part of century were competing with US in innovation and tech - but not now. What German excels in is their incredible cottage industry that supports it's manufacturing giants - and that is built on VET (vocational education and training) - Germans are ready to roll their sleeves and get dirty. Obviously that is more sustainable systems than having a few bright people in Silicon Valley producing the next tech. And therefore US has no options but to soon or later embrace German model - and start getting dirty again. vaxx1: 1 Like |

vaxx1:German technologies were only adopted by d US in d second world War, even d vehicle diamler was said to invent were perfected in d US, Hitler had to send delegates to US auto factories before they could unveil their volkswagen beetle, even d beetle was stereotyped on US models (Chrysler, to be precise). US perfect every innovation they get from Germany. Germany is not a match for d US in terms of innovation n invention. Check the countries with most inventions in d world, I doubt if Germany will make top 3 while the US will sit comfortably on top. ![]() |

rvp2018:i have been banned, really don't know why. it is not a mistake, may be controlling and monitoring was not heavily effecient and effective. in Germany, there is techinical university called houschule and liberal and resarch university called universitat. The universitat focus on research oriented and provides a very theoretical knowledge on the subjects. while the houscule focused on practical knowledge or industry oriented studies. With a TU degree, you are eligible to pursue Doctorate Degree provided your grades and profile is strong while with FH degree, generally you can also pursue with your Doctorate Degree but only with some special profile and conditions. This is what Ghana just did. infact there is plan that every college of education will be turn to university. the barrier of segregation must be broken. 1 Like |

Kazikazi: What do they serve to the kids in Tanzanian schools? @bolded, maybe it's being spoiled then because even now, most kids ignore the food that's being given to them at school. They want to carry a lunchbox & pocket money. I was shocked to find out that some kids in primary school are given as much as R50 by their parents. In the early 2000s when I was in high school, I was given R10 until I finished school. Kids these days carry big money to school. Some even have the privilege of taking phones with them to school. The millennials are really having the time of their lives! |

theenchanter:just check vexnet. Germany isn't a small nation, only Israel and America will be leading Germany in innovation. generally. infact it will be in specific discipline like ICT but others i doubt. Few countries have contributed so much to science and technology as Germany. From physics and chemistry to cars and consumer products, Germany is a world leader in innovation, boasting leading universities and research institutes alongside major engineering, IT and manufacturing industries. For most of the 20th century, Germany had more Nobel Prizes in the sciences than any other nation, and today the raw output of German scientific research consistently ranks among the world's best. probably isreal and usa can leads Germany in this category. 2 Likes |

Sorry - sometimes these nigerians bots can be something - anyway we shall see the outcomes. I don't think you can mix universities with technical colleges. I hope we don't start see too many Ghanians with degrees who are jobless and can't fix a light bulb...and whose only hope is to emigrate like Nigerians - and end up washing toilets abroads. Kenya already has that problem - way too many unemployed graduates - majority who did humanities and business courses . The solution was drastic - Gok i think deliberately failed many high schools kid so can they never dream of getting to universities and have to think about vocational skills - and I think it's working. Enrollment in vocation colleges has risen to 180,000 - the target was 400,000 and eventually 3M in 5yrs. vaxx1: |
