发帖数: 19398 | 1 Weiqi and Math From Singapore (zz)
My child has learned Weiqi for 4+ years. From my experience and what I obser
ved on other Weiqi kids, they have very good school performance, especially
in math.
I don't have any statistic analysis results for these Singapore Weiqi kids,
what I can show you are only some examples of these real kids. During last s
everal years, I have also collected information regarding why and how Weiqi
can improve children's intelligence, concentration, memory ability. I would
like to share it with everybody in the thread later on. Interestingly, all t
he principle learned during Weiqi training can be applied to children's dail
y life, you can image how strong a kid’s mental will be after trained to fa
ce so many failures and still willing to have continuous challenges.
As my daughter is in primary 5, so I am more familiar with these Weiqi kids
who are primary 6 and primary 5 now. I give you some examples:

I don’t have all the detailed information, this information were learned du
ring causal chat with parents. Weiqi lovers from NUS, NTU, RGS may also have
their own story, unfortunately I don’t have enough information. Maybe, in
future somebody should spend time to conduct a comparison research. But what
I can feel is most of the Weiqi trained kid are humble, intelligent, have s
trong memory and logic analysis ability, I will show you some research resul
ts to support my opinion and also some interesting facts about Weiqi.
I strongly suggest you introducing Weiqi to your kinds, don’t miss it and y
ou will not regret. Actually, it will never be too late to learned Weiqi. I
learned Weiqi in middle school, and if you visit Singapore Weiqi Association
, you can meet with Weiqi lover over 80 years old, still have very good memo
ry and strong analysis, calculating skills. I believe that it is Weiqi keep
them in good mental health. |
