At the end of last year, ReConnect China researcher Urmas Hõbepappel of University of Tartu Asia Centre had a great opportunity to meet students from classes 11 and 12 of the Tallinn French Lyceum. The lecture was focused on China-related security concerns vis-a-vis Estonia/Europe, followed by a long Q&A session.
The students participated in an experiment where the same lecture was presented to high school students (age 17-18) and MA students (age 22-25) at the Estonian Military Academy to gauge how well the same information is understood among different levels of education. The results were measured with Slido and show that both groups had similar levels of comprehension (on scale 1-5, 67% of high school students assessed their comprehension with 4 and 33% with 5).
