Abstract

When people discuss about obedience, it reminds us of Milgram experiment. Indeed, the author wants to learn more about relationship between students and teachers when people regard obedience in this situation. This paper discusses about different obedience rate between Chinese students and the US students in order to test the obedience to authority. By designing an in-class activity and post-experimental surveys. Indeed, it will show the obedience rate of different groups of students. The result indicates that students in different education systems will show out the significant difference of obedience rate. However, students who change from one education system to another one will not have significant difference in obedience rate. This may because of two factors. First, the different cultures play an important role. Second, the two distinctive education systems will form different students. By doing research about this field, we can learn more about the influence of different education systems to students. It will show out why some people prefer to study in the US. It may relate to the obedience rate in American education systems. According to the experiment in this work, students who study in the American have lower obedience rate, which may be better to students’ future life.
