Posted by real
A series of numbers given in the exhibition themed on Tibetan Past and Present show the consistent progress in Tibetan education field: Tibet Autonomous Region is the first one to accomplish compulsory education with free-accommodation and free-tuition in urban and rural areas; 1,200-yuan assistance is provided for every pupil in per academic year, while every student in junior high school can receive 1,350 yuan; Up to now, 1,923 out of 10,000 persons are students at school.
These inspiring numbers are sharp contrast with Tibetan past: Accounting for over 95% of Tibetan total population, herders have only 2% enrollment. For 50 years, Tibetan education has developed with numbers of schools surging from zero to thousands and people's equal right to receive education.
Modern informationized education has been introduced into schools in Tibet along with improved teaching method and facilities.
"Internet is like a treasure box and long-distance education is amazing," said a pupil sitting in front of a computer.
In the clean and modern classrooms, students are dreaming that they can build a more beautiful Tibet in the near future.
