　　In a society such as the United states or Canada, which has many national, religious, and cultural differences, people highly value individualism—the differences among people. Teachers place a lot of importance on the qualities that make each student special. The educational systems in these countries show these values. Students do not memorize information. Instead, they work individually and find answers themselves. There is often discussion in the classroom. At an early age, students learn to form their own ideas and opinions.

　　In most Asian societies, by contrast, the people have the same language, history, and culture.

The teacher lectures, and the students listen. There is not much discussion. Instead, the students recite rules or information that they have memorized.
