How does university differ from school?
1. Study what you are interested: University education is your first step in controlling of your learning. Unlike school, where you learn particular subjects as they are compulsory, at university you can select a course, which suits your abilities and interests.
2. Student accountability: School is ‘teacher focused’ that means your teachers are responsible for the way that you study a subject. Thus, school teachers are professional in various ways to pass their knowledge to students effectively. On the other hand, university is ’student focused,’ because university students are responsible for deciding what is necessary of them and conducting it. A common proverb is that a lecturer is expert in his area who ‘teach his subject, not his students’.
