Students influenced by the Confucian tradition consider learning the most important thing in life, the purpose of life; study makes a person not only better but also more honest; learning is lifelong; knowledge that makes us different does not come naturally and the journey to find that knowledge requires determination, effort and self-awareness.
In contrast, Western students approach learning based on the following principles: curiosity about the outside world is a source of inspiration for learning; the spirit of constant questioning with the universe around us will lead to new knowledge; The human capacity for thinking is unparalleled and the ability to think rationally will guide our understanding of the world; each individual is an entity that participates in that discovery.
