唔… 「真矢是犧牲了自己，讓小孩子踏過自己而成長的」，為何我會想不到呢？究竟成長了的小孩子是會想改變畸形不平社會的人，還是循著現今模式生活的人？若是後者，在我眼中還是失敗喔…

EcoGeek – Smart Meters: A Review <http://www.ecogeek.org/content/view/160/1/>
I always want to have such kind of meter to meter the home energy usage. It frustrates me so much that I find it difficult or even impossible to find out the actual power consumption of electric appliances. I think manufactures have the responsibility to imprint the data on the product brochure, as well as manual for consumers’ reference.

作者鬧香港既老師鬧得好過癮。
不如俾佢做老師啦。
雖然，報紙報出黎果堆反應，連我都覺得反思。
但反思不是香港的特色嗎﹖

方兄不必勞氣，佢同佢班 blog 友未必有料去教，但佢地有咁既睇法未必無因。
他們都是已經出來社會工作的人，受過十多年的教育，為甚麼大都一面倒的支持阿久津老師的教育理念 (模式就仍有待商榷)。明顯地就是他們覺得現今的教育存在很大的問題，小孩子越來越難教，越來越沒教養。當他們看到這套教集，見到劇中的小孩子在阿久津老師面前耍不出花樣，就像看到教育改革的一線曙光，下意識就認同了這一套。
事實上，教學需要用心，一步步地帶領小孩子成長。阿久津老師的手法我不完全認同，但我很想知道這套劇集完結時小孩子們會成長到什麼地步。我在想，若果阿久津老師刻意使扮成一個可憎的人物 (丑角)，並營造可怕的課堂環境，目的是讓他們推翻自己 (世俗) ，而她的行為又沒有嚴重的傷害他們，我想或許這個做法也未嘗不可。須知道做任何事都會有傷害，只要傷害是輕微且短期，而得到的是長期的好處，那應該是可以接受的。
當然，劇集終歸是劇集，那些手法在現實中應該要作出不少修訂才能使用。但這是正確的方向是錯不了。
另外，聽了那麼多大人和教育工作者的意見，我真的很想知道小孩友和家長是怎麼看。缺少了主角的觀點，分析就不全面了。

小朋友唔聽教，根本唔係教育改革既問題，係家教有問題。
如果令學生覺得課堂「可怕」，那絕對不是良好的教學。

家教無疑係有極之大的問題，但學校、教員缺乏有效 (具威嚇性，如︰體罰、體力勞動，總之係學生怕做的事) 的手段去訓導學生，絕對不容忽視。
做功課、測驗、考試都可怕，那為何又不廢除？答案就是它們都對學生學習有幫助 (雖然我有懷疑)。今時不同往日，現今小孩不怕面對師長、家長、外人，試問一般手段又怎能馴服頑劣之童？家長旨意學校，但學校一責怪他們的寶貝又要企出來維護他們。那我想既然家長無能，不如學校狠心點，至少對學生長遠有好處。
教師放低身段與學生做朋友更可行，我甚至認為這兼師兼友是新一代的教育。缺點就是要花上很多的時間和精神，要做得好，非小班教學不可。

Many people feel the same way – the energy industry is still shrowded in mystery as to their pricing methods despite decades of ‘progressive’ government policies and privatisation in the UK (and soon cross-EU). I’ll be posting a DIY electricity meter schematic on my website in the near future so check back if you are handy with a soldering iron!

Thank you, Dave. I’m looking forward to your DIY meter because I can’t find the distributer and retailer of electrisave (centameter) in my location – Hong Kong.

Muhammed, you should find Dave at phicons.com. I’m afraid I’m unable to offer you anything on this. But you may have interest in these.
