Soon it becomes more math and technology in school – and less student’s choice – Nyheter24

Is the favorite subject of mathematics? In this case, the government has come up with good news. If you prefer to avoid GO ON with numbers, it is no fun decision the government has taken.

It should be added 105 more hours in elementary school. And the time for that will come from the student’s choice. This presented the Minister of Education Gustav Fridolin at a press briefing on Tuesday.

– Math is one of those topics that Swedish students have the most difficulty for . It is the substance, which subjects all students reading, which most do not reach a passing grade in. If we look internationally in countries that are better at math so is more math one of the solutions, says Fridolin to Nyheter24 .

The time for 105 more hours of math will be taken from the student’s choice. According to the Minister of Education, it is a good idea because the student’s choice has not been good enough and the students have not been satisfied.

– When we evaluated the student’s choice, it is one of the substances that may be the worst result. In evaluations of students respond that they do not feel that it has the quality it should have. With fewer hours in the student’s choice, we hope it will have better conditions to have good content, he said.

From next summer also introduces more technology on the schedule. The Swedes are not sufficient good at technology, like the government. That is about to change to. In school, all students in elementary school to read at least 200 hours of technology.

The Agency has been tasked to develop a plan for IT in schools. Students will learn more programming, among other things, must include mathematics and technology.


The focus on technology in schools should also make it become a more equal gender balance when it comes to career choices in the future, writes Fridolin and Industry Mikael Damberg in an article.
