Importance Of Education In Education

“Every child has a different learning style and pace. Each child is unique, not only capable of learning, but also capable of succeeding.” First of all, what do you think this quote means? To me, this quote encourages kids to work harder in school. What if I told you that there might be another way to get kids to work harder in school? Well, now there is! If kids got paid for good grades, kids might work harder in class. But, should kids be paid for good grades? If you want to find out, I suggest you keep on reading.

The question of should girls and boys be taught separately is a question that is constantly being discussed and the answer is no, they shouldn't. An obvious reason for coed teaching would be the lack of gender equality in America already, separating girls and boys would just be back-tracking all the hard work that both men and women have for worked for to have equality between genders. Another reason would be if schools taught males separate from females, the learning would be unbalanced, an article called “Should boys and girls be taught separately in our schools?” written by former teacher and a researcher at education think tank LKMco Ellie Mulcahy, states that “In 2016, 76% of psychology and 73% of English A-level entries came from girls. On the flip side, more than nine in 10 young people taking computing A-level are boys.” Students should be provided the same education to produce a more unbiased society.

Very little is known about how many students went to these schools or the significance of the education given to students in these schools, but it is very certain that almost all of the teachers of these schools fled Iran after the Islamic revolution started and that others have been jailed or fired for not supporting the revolution. All of Iran’s schools are run by the government’s Ministry of Education and Training. Additionally, the political ruler of Iran, the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, didn’t restrict education for females as many Iranians feared he would, but he did proclaim sexual segregation on the Iranian school system; so now, all boys and girls are educated separately by their genders at all grade levels. All schooling is free, but students who wish to study at a college must be content with working for the government for an equal amount of time spent at the college. One field in which the shah improved greatly upon in Iran was in health care. Diseases like malaria, smallpox, amoebic dysentery, cholera, tuberculosis, typhoid fever, venereal disease , and other harmful infections that have run free through Iran since ancient times were finally being brought under control. During the 1960s, hospitals were constructed in many cities and a health organization composed of young physicians and trained secondary-school volunteers was created in 1964 and they set out to take basic medical care in mountain valleys and remote villages. By 1979, Iran had one doctor for

Knowledge is very valuable and we should all be able to obtain it. Today millions of children are unable to access education. Education shouldn’t be a privilege it should be a right all over the world. Children in developing countries are being denied an education. Due to the lack of resources and materials children are not able to attend school because they don’t have a building to learn in. According to Global Citizen, a classroom in Malawi there is 130 students per classroom in the 1st grade. It isn’t only the lack of classrooms but also the lack of basic facilities. Students aren’t able to learn properly if their classrooms are facing an extreme overcrowding. Trying to learn in a classroom with another 129 students can be quite difficult especially if your teacher isn’t able to get to every student in a day. Obtaining an education is not only about attending classes but it is also about being able to actually learn when you go to school.

As a future student of George Washington University, I am interested in this institution because I want to attend an institution where theory and research work together harmoniously. I would like to learn from professors whom are experts in their field and I can stretch also strengthen my academic experience. I want to learn how to expand my personal thinking in class while probing further into my research interests. Finally, I want to be able to network with professional experts while using my experience and opportunities from George Washington University to make a strong impact in the educational arena.

Education is very important to ensure a better quality of life for all children. It also makes people aware of opportunities available for them, and the rights that they deserve. It is the key which allows one to acquire skills to become more self-reliant, and ultimately succeed in their life. A country or a world without educated people is a hell of a mess, where no one shows respect in regard to anyone. The lack of education increases the gender gap; for many years, women were not allowed to attend school or obtain an education. It also increases the level of poverty leaving people no choice than becoming criminals, murderers, or thieves. Those acts do not happen only because people live in poverty, but also for the sake to project their anger on society. However, because of women’s importance in societies, their education should not be neglected otherwise those goals can never be achieved because women are at the center of education.

Teacher’s make a choice early on to chase the dream and not the dollar. It is not about the money that is to be made but rather about the minds that can be molded. A teacher goes through rigorous education requirements to prepare for the many roles a teacher must play. In today’s world, many students are falling through the cracks and teachers are facing tremendous difficulties leading them to leave, but I want to join the education field so I can take these students and guide them to the right track. I know that taking Sociology 101 will make me a better teacher.

ABSTRACT: The importance of planting local and religious cultural values in education is an effort to anticipate the rate of modernization characterized by sophistication in the field of communication, information, and transportation technologies bringing the countries of the world into the global network system to a new world civilization. If not anticipated by strengthening cultural and religious filters, then globalization will be detrimental to the existence of the nation's cultural values. This study examines the meaning of events and interactions of people, used orientation or theoretical perspective with phenomenological approach. The type of research used in this study is the type of qualitative research. While viewed from the place of research, this research belongs to the type of research library. The research results are: 1) The values of education that can be known from the local wisdom of rural society are as follows; a) The value of the Faith, namely the belief in the existence of God as the Lord of the universe The value of faith is also found in the philosophy of life that has been adhered to firmly; b) Value of Togetherness; c) The value of education that teaches hard work, abstinence, filial piety, obedience to the rules of religion, clean life, community life, and simple life; 2) The concept of educational development from

Despite the recent increase in access to education, the poor, socially disadvantaged, and people in remote areas are often deprived of basic education. When basic education is available, the poorest are not able to benefit from it because the direct costs and associated opportunity costs are too high for them Thus, the relationship between education and poverty reduction is as honest and linear as education is; it enables the person to participate in the development process, instilling the knowledge and skills needed to improve income earning capacity and thus quality of life. Furthermore, the education of girls and women helps to improve the number of other indicators of human development. The eradication of poverty requires access to quality education. Thus, education helps lay the foundation for the following pillars of poverty reduction: empowerment, human development and social development Education may increase inequality and poverty if the benefits of economic growth are not evenly distributed among people. If education is achieved and the gap between the poor and the rich is reduced and all of them enjoy fair education without discrimination in opportunities, it contributes to reducing the poverty crisis and increasing security and stability. That the right to education - like all human rights - is universal and inalienable, many conventions have been enshrined in international law, which places binding obligations on ratifying States. The right to a good education

I find pride and value in all my experiences regarding STEM. Though I have directed my focus more towards technology in my middle and high school years, my story began with mathematics. Growing up in an immigrant family, my parents were not always able to cross the language barrier and help develop my studies in language arts or social studies. Since math deals with numbers and function, it is the one subject without borders. I grew up memorizing the multiplication table at an early age and complaining when my parents quizzed me while going on walks or grocery shopping. Despite my constant whining, I obliged and looking back, I am thankful that my parents pushed me to learn basic math in my formative years. By the time I entered elementary school, math just clicked; whether it be from a natural inclination or from the early exposure, and I grew more confident and interested in my mathematical abilities.

If the purpose of school is to learn, why do we censor educational material? By removing parts of our history, knowledge, or real world experiences, students receive a distorted perception of educational subjects. The fact that society is trying to keep children pure for as long as possible is destroying advancement within society since that information supports not only academic knowledge, but knowledge regarding everyday life as well. Hiding the truth does not stop the tragic and graphic situations that occur everyday. I completely understand the necessity of basic rules regarding general disorder, however I do not think it is essential to prevent critical thinking as children transition into the real world. How are children supposed to be expected to understand independence, and how to think for themselves if their entire lives were filtered and spoon fed to them? Avoidance and censorship within schools promotes ignorance. For example, restrainment of teaching about the history of slavery in America, result in children to grow without understanding the struggle of acceptance that people of color face, or the significance of rallies and marches for black rights in current society. Or the watered down sex education prevents practically any knowledge that would be useful in modern day life. Currently, majority of what is taught in sex education is abstinence. Although beneficial knowledge, it is unrealistic to expect every child to follow that recommendation; especially

I’ve lived by the common adage that we are a product of our environment, the idea that exposures have the ability to shape our character and outcomes in life. Growing up in a rural environment with resources allocated to support agricultural development and a scarcity of resources to address the public health needs of my community inspired me to pursue higher education. As the country reaped the benefits of the agricultural industry, my community endured the costs from exposure to environmental toxins and pollutants that resulted from the agricultural industry’s use of chemical pesticides and over-irrigation of the land. Although the built environment positioned me to experience unfavorable outcomes, the adage served as a reminder that exposure to other environmental conditions could result in more favorable outcomes. My exposure of choice was education, exposing myself to education broke down environmental barriers and instilled a passion to address public health needs inherent to the environment. Self-education exposed me to the field of Nutrition and the idea that nutrients in food could serve as medication to cure, control and prevent diseases. With newfound knowledge of the field, I was able to disseminate nutrition education information to members of my community. Moreover, I recognized that I could not change environmental conditions and needed to pursue a structured education in the field of Nutrition to make a larger impact on the health of my community. Pursuing

Children not only look to their families for support, but also to their teachers. Teachers play a fundamental role in supporting students who have attracted disability labels. In fact, “any practice that enables individuals to examine their self-perceptions of their learning disability increases the likelihood of them gaining a more favourable perspective of their overall well-being” (Rothman & Cosden, 1995, p. 211). It seems as though including the student in the individualized educational program (IEP) process could help initiate these conversations. When students are included in, or even direct the IEP process, they are able to better recognize their strengths and what they need to do, or need from others to be successful (Seong, Wehmeyer, Palmer, & Little, 2015, p. 133). Students are then able to recognize their positive attributes rather than only the negative attributes associated with disability that they are so used to hearing (Rodis et al., 2001a, p. 18). When students, regardless of ability, recognize that they are supported by their teachers, success, and a more positive sense of self is likely to occur (Hutchinson, 2017, p. 282).

My motivation to teach is rooted in my love for social studies including the opportunities that are available to facilitate conversations that engage students in critically analyzing the past while making connections to the present. I majored in history at California State University, San Bernardino which provided me with a foundation in social studies that I have continued to build upon as an educator. Throughout my academic journey, I have explored various disciplines while trying to discover my niche. Ultimately, my journey kept bringing me back to social studies and reinforcing my love for the discipline that explored so many social issues and one that encompassed a diversity of thought and discussion through courses like psychology, sociology, political science, anthropology, geography, and so on. However, it is one thing to learn and develop your own content knowledge, but it is very different to transfer this knowledge to students. My background knowledge of social studies helped me in my journey at TC to begin to take what I already knew and apply it to teaching students. I believe that teachers should dedicate themselves to be lifelong learners so that they may better help students in the acquisition of new knowledge. TC has given me the tools upon which to continue to grow to begin this journey as an educator.

While the school district saw slim gains of 0.55 percentage point in ELA and 1.86 percentage points in math from 2016 to 2017 as measured through SBAC testing, our partner schools for the Full-Service Community Schools grant surpassed the districts gains in the same time period (gain of 4 percentage points in ELA and 2 percentage points in math). Alexandria Avenue Elementary and Virgil Middle experienced gains of 3 and 2 percentage points respectively in ELA from 2016 to 2017; while Lockwood Avenue Elementary and Alexandria Avenue Elementary experienced gains of 9 and 4 percentage points respectively in math from 2016 to 2017.
