亚洲的教育改革：什么有效以及为什么重要
每隔几年，一项新的教育改革就会成为头条新闻。芬兰取消了科目。新加坡取消考试。中国禁止私人辅导。 But which reforms actually work — and which are political theater?
亚洲的教育改革并不是一个单一的故事。 It ranges from massive structural overhauls (China reorganizing its entire private tutoring industry overnight) to incremental adjustments (Japan tweaking its curriculum every decade). The scale, speed, and stakes vary enormously by country.

尽管如此，渐进的进展是真实的。 More Korean universities now use holistic admissions than a decade ago. The government has invested heavily in vocational education alternatives to the university track. And a growing number of Korean families are choosing to 压力较小的地方。
印度：新教育政策
印度的 2020 年国家教育政策 (NEP) was the country's first major education overhaul in 34 years, and it's ambitious.关键要素包括：
新经济政策只是一个路线图，尚未成为现实。 Implementation varies wildly by state, and India's federated system means that education policy plays out differently in Kerala (97% literacy) than in Bihar (64% literacy). But the ambition and direction are clear: India is trying to build an education system that serves 250 million students while preparing them for a knowledge economy.
越南没有获得足够的信用。 In the 2018 PISA assessment, Vietnamese students outperformed those in the UK, the US, and Australia in science — despite Vietnam having a fraction of those countries' education budgets.
