今天给孩子报名上学,登记的老师问是"REGULAR"还是"COGITO"?只好拿点材料走了,看了看也不清楚两者区别.另外听说还有AC,IB等等PROGRAM,这些都是什么意思?
! x: E$ P" Q) Q! i' Z' v9 r另外,天主教学校好吗?

/ q+ K6 D u2 ^( l4 s简单看了一下，大概是和普通学校不同的教育方式，强化听说读写，教学大纲的要求更高些，更学术些。9 L- Q9 g8 H. N+ k" A
Cogito is an alternative program for children Grades K to 9. As enrollment continues to grow Cogito is approved to continue to Grade 12. This Edmonton Public Schools program has been in successful operation since 1995.
$ ?% R1 T( S3 a7 o, iThe program is designed for the student who is willing to work to achieve a high level of academic excellence, in a knowledge-based program, and an atmosphere of structured and sequenced learning. Critical thinking is stressed. Students work in an environment that encourages self-discipline.

+ o0 }! B+ y% p我觉得挺符合中国家长对孩子的期望，但是有些西方家长不在乎，他们更希望孩获得学习的乐趣，而不是学习的深度。所以不同的期望，不同的选择而已。$ _7 B2 E' j% F+ r% `6 q

我个人不愿意送孩子教会学校，我觉得教会学校是一种强灌 |
