Education : The Foundation Of Education

Education can be considered the process of discovering something new that a person did not previously know. It is an essential part of life because it empowers people with knowledge, enables them to contribute to society, earn money, and become independent. Education is a process that starts when you are born.

When looking back at the 1950s and 1960s it is amazing to see how different the roles of women are, especially their occupation. In the 50s men were coming back from the war, and took their jobs back from the women who were doing them.Society told them that they needed husband and children to be acceptable, they were objects to men with little no rights. From then on it was difficult from a woman to have profession after that. If a woman wanted a profession she was something like an assistant, or secretary, something that was considered jobs that didn’t need an education. If a woman was unsure of pursuing a job the media of that time period didn't help, the media would often show pictures of women cooking and cleaning while looking happy. In the 1950s women were paid 71% less of what their male coworkers did. In the industry 6% of women were doctors, 3% were lawyers, 1% were engineers. Also in the 1950s women were fired after marriage or pregnancy, because women weren’t supposed to support

    Since all these changes happened back then it let women of the 21st century have options to do what they want. Now we attend school longer, we get the same education as

With proper education, it can help shape an individual's future; education is the foundation of the way of life today, it is needed and required everywhere in the world. Those who strive to be employed, make money, or do something great in the future has to rely on education to get them there. Education is mandatory to become an engineer, doctor, teacher, astronaut etc.; the skill required to be able to do any type of work is gained from learning the basics and having a clear understanding of it. An individual's success depends mainly on their talent and hardwork. Although we rely on education, we as well rely on that individual's strength, determination, and perseverance. Every individual are each a diamond in the rough and should be well taken care

women did not go to school to learn about how to figure out how to read and write and how to become owners of business, when they went to school they had to learn how to cook and clean properly. Byrn Mawr's and M. CareyThomas, in 1921 made a school for women that provided academic training, union-organizing skills, and lessons in participatory democracy that lasted for ten years.A lot of universities and colleges would not allow married women to attend because there was so few jobs some states passed laws to not allow women to work.Unlike men they had to graduate elementary school to be able to work.A 1992 report published by the American Association of University Women showed that gender bias against girls and women continues to pervade our educational system; teachers pay more attention to boys than to girls; textbooks ignore or stereotype women; and vocational education programs continue to channel women into traditionally female-dominated, low-wage

Education is one of the most effective ways to improve quality of life. Education is needed to expand knowledge. It makes one’s brain healthy and filled with knowledge and new material s/he may never knew before. It is needed to succeed, reach greater heights, and find a good job. Without education, a lot of people might be beggars.

Education is the very foundation in which we as individuals grow, and formulate the knowledge we gain through life into meaningful ways of adapting to the world.

Historically males have been the primary beneficiaries of education. It’s a man’s world, men are the creators of civilizations, laws and education in America. Men have created a system where they can be cater too in every way possible. Men usually have first pick of what they want to do with their life, they tend to have a choice whether to attend college. Woman before did not have much of a choice to attend college to seek a career, woman have usually gotten marry and raised kids. Conlin says “The gender gap also has roots in the expectation gap, in the 1970’s boys

Back in the old day's women wasn't taken seriously in school like men were. Adrienne Rich wrote in her essay Taking Women Students Seriously she wrote: " In teaching women, we have two choices: to lend our weight to the forces that indoctrinate women to passivity, self-depreciation, and a sense of powerlessness…" Which basically saying that women were put in a different category than men when it came to teaching them in school. Women and men do not receive an equal education because outside of the classroom women is perceived not as sovereign beings but as prey. (Adrienne Rich) Back in the old days, they didn't want women to be smart. Back in the 1960s women was not allowed to do a lot of things including things like vote, keep her job if she was

Did you know that in 1960, only 30% of college students were women? According to Stanworth, “Teachers often have boys more encouragement than girls to go to [college].” Women have been being treated unfairly and have been made to stay at home to do household chores instead of working. Another example of this behavior is in 1960, for every dollar that a working man made in 1960, a working woman made around 60 cents, and to continue on this topic women were usually not accepted into jobs because of their gender. Women were seen more as caregivers and were more likely to be interested in domestic matters while men were more likely to be more adventurous than girls, physically stronger, and had much more choices in the job world and real life.

Upon completion of my eight weeks as a scholar in EDUC 604: Foundations of Education, I have grown both as an individual and a teacher. EDUC 604, has fueled the fire of my hunger for being an educator and has been a light onto the path of how to become the best I can be. I am reminded of the bible verse “Let my teaching fall like rain and my words descend like dew, like showers on new grass, like abundant rain on tender plants,” (Deuteronomy 32:2, KJV, 2016). Reflecting on each experience, the successful as well as my failures has inspired me to continue to grow and endure from these challenges. Clearly seeing that the scholar and the teacher relationship works hand to hand because we each need each other to be complete. I have also gained

Education is needed for individuals to function in society. Without the proper tools, people would be a burden instead of an asset. To become an asset, individuals need to be exposed to those elements which would enrich their lives through knowledge. Knowledge in our society is basically learned through education. The basic knowledge each person should receive from an education is the three R’s; reading writing, and arithmetic. These mediums will enable a person to survive in today’s society.

Education is about teaching and learning for improving skills and knowledge. Education also means helping people to do, to learn and encouraging them to think what they learn. Education can give people knowledge of society, country, the world and many things else. From children to adult are supposed to have knowledge through education. More details, education helps and guide people from uneducated to knowledge.

Ever since I can remember, my parents have drilled this concept into my head that obtaining an education and becoming wealthy will lead you to a happier and better life. They would tell me things such as “ We both came to America because in doing so we hoped that the next generation (which is me) would have a better livelihood than we had at your age.” At that time, I believed everything that they told me because 1. I was a kid so I believed in anything they said and 2, they are adults so I thought that whatever they said must be true. If I were to become wealthy, I would not have to worry about falling behind on my bills, working overtime in order to make enough money to eat, and maintaining the livelihood of my family if I ever decide to have one. So ever since day one, my parents had pushed me into believing that if I were to become wealthy I would become happy and live a better life. They would always encourage me to do well in school because they hoped that the path to education will eventually lead to a successful life. But I never asked questions like why does being wealthy lead to a happy life? Or why is education the only way to becoming a successful person later in life? Education is not for everyone right? It was not until I got older that I realized that a certain someone that I met in my elementary school challenged my mindset of being wealthy will lead to a joyful life.

Education is one of the most important things for a society to prosper and be safe which forms the character and intelligence of the individuals around the world. Education makes one able to understand what is happening in the world logically and clearly. Education enables individuals to put their potential to use and make a difference in the future. It is essential for individuals to be educated in a way that they will expand their knowledge vastly. An ideal educational model is very difficult to achieve, and is often argued over by people in society.
