關於自學Self education

When finishing the high school course, not every student has the chance or ability to go to college. Some students choose to seek a job, start their own business or pursue other interest. However, for some students who want to get further education, they choose self-education, self-education is no better than university studies. 
當完成高中課程的學習後，並不是每個學生有機會和有能力上大學。一些學生選擇找工作，開創自己的事業或者發展別的興趣。然而，對於一些想繼續學習的學生來說，他們選擇自學，自學並不比高校學習好。
On the one hand, self-education lacks of a well-defined structure. In the school, the teacher will make some plans for students’ studies; they plan the target, the fulfillment of expectation and assessment of the program. With these, students can know their own flaws, making progress gradually. While self-learners may lose themselves, they have no test, no homework and no exam; it is hard for them to know how to get improved.
一方面，自學缺乏系統性的安排。在學校，教師會給學生制定學習計劃，他們制定了學習目標，實現期望和進度的評估。有了這些，學生就會知道他們的不足，慢慢進步。然而自學者可能自我迷失，他們沒有測試，沒有作業和沒有考試，很難知道如何提高。
On the other hand, self-education doesn’t provide the environment which students can learn from each other. College provides students the stage to communicate with others, making friends; students can also have the chance to enhance the ability of team work and readership. Those abilities are very important for students, when they are finding a job, they have the advantages.
在另一方面，自學並不給學生提供可以彼此學習的環境。大學給學生提供了交流和交朋友的舞臺，學生也可以有機會增強團隊合作和領導能力。這些能力對於學生來說是很重要的，當他們找工作的時候，就很有優勢了。
Self-education is a way of gaining knowledge; I prefer to study in college, because I like to communicate with friends. Though self-education can’t take place for university studies, we can choose to learn elective courses in that way. 
自學是學到知識的一種方式，我比較喜歡在學校學習，因爲我喜歡和朋友交流。雖然自學並不能取代高校學習，我們可以在學習選修課時自學。
