Nowadays, the world in developing at a high speed, therefore, everyone, especially children, need to learn how to live in this fast changing day. The problem is which ability is more important, competition or cooperation? Personally, I believe both of them are essential skills in future life.
It seems that learning competition is more useful, for children will live in a competitive environment after they grow up. However, the time of proud of one hero has past. We also could neglect the importance of cooperate, after all, no matter how strong ability that a hero has, he or she in also different to beat up to power of one group. It is why “working with group” in one of basic requirements of many companies.
Of course, the future society ‘s rule is “Surival is the fittest”, so just becoming an expert of cooperation is far from enough. Stress from society and family impels children to involve in the cruel competition. Studies have shown that the children who living in competitive environment will knock their out to study courses and accomplish jobs. It is reasonable to believe that Competition, which is the one of strong power of future society developing, is the basis ability of young people. In this way, Competition will playing an important role in education, and even more powerful.
All in all, competition and cooperation must go hand in hand. The key point is keeps the balance between competition and cooperation during teaching. Only when you get this two ability that you walk faster on the way that leads to success.
