My Views On Education Is Not Just A Right

While reading I found a statement where the author says, “little wonder that business majors outnumber liberal-arts majors in the U.S. by two-to-one, and the trend is even more focused programs targeted to niches in the labor market.” I completely agree with that statement, because it takes jobs, businesses of all kinds, and people to keep jobs going and available in this world. When you analyze things even further and put it all on paper, it takes people to be a CPA, a financial broker, a stock broker, to be an accountant, a banker, and an investor or giver to keep the world functioning properly and keep businesses from going under because of financial problems. The author also makes a great statement, “many parents and students don’t realize that even top schools differ greatly in their ability to get students out the door to graduation on time.” I completely agree with that statement as well, because it all depends on how much the student wants to and is willing to learn. I found it interesting when the author compares a private school with a public school, because some people would never take the time to do that. A lot of people think a private school is better education for their children. The author mentions in the passage that one of his colleagues did some very detailed research and found that a private school has a lot more to offer students once they graduate, rather than one a public school does. I will completely agree with that. When I think of a public school, I think of very good education. “An expensive, private school may end up cheaper if a student doesn’t have to be there as long.” I find this statement very true, because when reading about private schools they are a lot stricter on their education and how they do things. Private schools don’t want students

Education is not defined by knowledge, but rather by how one uses it to improve. As stated by Angela Lee Duckworth, “In all those very different contexts, one characteristic emerged as a significant predictor of success. It was grit.” This is an effective statement because we think that a person’s success is defined by their college degree, but people have never thought beyond the fact that someone without a college degree is more educated than someone who had graduated from college. People who learned from observations and make creation from scratch were more likely to make a difference even when they do not have a high school and/or college degrees. Those who went to school and earned A’s for their schoolworks would be less likely to make a difference because their passion is to get good grades rather than learning new ideas. The motivation to be smarter

Education should not only be looked at as attending college and passing exams to succeed in school. Nevertheless, it should be seen as the complete development of one's personality, intellectual development, and moral evolution. The system tells everyone to learn the same material, even if the students are bored and even if they’re sleeping during class. In the article “Against School”, John Taylor Gatto states, “teachers didn’t seem to know much about their subject and clearly weren’t interested in learning” (Gatto). This shows the teachers and the students disconnect from the context because either it’s irrelevant or not being taught in inspiring ways. I believe an educated person should at least have some background knowledge for a job

Through personal experience I have learned that an education does truly help you succeed in life. Growing up I have had a good education system and been able to push myself to learn. However, I have met some people who have not been as lucky as me. Around eight years ago, I was twelve years

The better the education a person has, the more successful they will be. Even having a basic education can bring you far. If people didn?t take education seriously, the country would not be the country we would be today. We would have corruption throughout the nation and our technology would be outdated. We would have not had any advances in medicines or cures to many of the diseases that are curable today. The stability in the government would not be balanced, and the economy would sink into depression. Everything considered the country would be in turmoil and misery.

Education is a very valuable thing, something everyone should be able to receive and not to fight to receive a great education. No matter the race, religion,

Education is a privilege. This remains true, even as I sit in one of the most grueling lectures of my life and ask myself questions like, "When am I ever going to use this in real life?" or "Can it be lunch already?" We often believe that education is a right. However, when something is not accessible to all, it is a privilege, not a right.

Growing up, I never thought of education as a privilege. Now I know how lucky and how blessed I am I had the benefit of a good education at a private school and college. Furthermore I now have the opportunity to study in Melbourne, something hard to do if you do not have the resources. Although education is free in most countries, a lot of children stop studying when they can to find a job to help the family.

Having education doesn 't automatically make you intelligent, nor does it measure your competency. However, in today 's society, having a degree is very important for getting a good job and making money, but it does not mean that earning a degree makes you knowledgeable. In the article Importance of Education states, “Education plays a vital role in your success in the personal growth. The more you have knowledge the more you grow” (Importance of Education). If schools are supposed to help are personal growth through school. Then why do so many student lose interest in finding who they want to become or question why they are here in the first place. In the documentary movie War on Kids, Morgan Emrich a public school teacher states, “they’re taught to hate reading by being forced to read stuff that they don 't want to. It 's really rare for a kid in school to be able to choose a book that they want to read and read it” (War on Kids). As students we get force to learn what is require in order to go from one grade to another. We also get tested to see the school academic level or need to pass a standardized test in order to graduate.

Education in America is important way for people to be successful, and part of being successful is the key part of the American Character. First piece of evidence is a website that speaks on how the American society is shifting from a high school degree with a college degree in terms of how successful ratings and job requirements. The article is called “Americans View Higher Education as Key to American Dream” and is written by Allison Rizzolo.It was written six-teen years ago proves that it is not so long ago that this information was put together. Being that it is easy to connect how important in this day in age the importance of education and how if a person does not have a high enough education level they will not be very successful.

Our country is a democratic one. It is supposed to be a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Education plays a large role in that. Many believe that in democratic societies a free education is each citizen’s right. Others see education as a privilege, one that must be earned. The fact that education is key in making political, social, and economic decisions which help our government to stay true to its basis, and the fact that without at least some level of education, citizens can not get jobs and provide for the families prove that education should be considered a right in the United States.

Education is a very important aspect of the lives of all people all over the world. What we learn, not just in the classroom, shapes who we are. We take our education everywhere we go. We use it when talking to our buddies about sports or music, we use it while solving a math problem, we use our education while debating with our family whether or not we should watch TV or go to the movies. Our education is the foundation of who we are, since every decision we make and every thought we think is dependent on what we know. Imagine how different the world would be if everyone craved learning to such a degree that at lunch tables all over the world the topic of conversation isn't who likes who, or how drunk

There are different types of education that a student may receive in today’s society. The choices are narrowed down into two main categories, public and private school. Many people in today’s society believe it’s better to send their children to private schools rather than public schools. To most parents deciding which school system will be better is based on curriculum, class size, and most of all cost. It’s not an easy choice for parents to decide, but many parents feel their child is worth receiving the best education offered.

From previous experience, I feel as though private schools provide a better education. I do not feel it is fair to families, or children themselves, that the cost for an opportunity to gain more knowledge at a faster pace is not available to everyone who would like to take advantage of it. As a child, I was attending a catholic school up until the fifth grade. Once my mother and I moved to Maryland, we lived closer to a public school. At this time my mother was single and did’nt have the funds to send me to a private/catholic school. When I was in catholic school, I had a lot more homework and it was a bit of a challenge. Once I started going to public school everything that was being taught was a review for me. I continued going to public school until I graduated and the work never seemed vigorous enough for it to benefit me or prepare me for college. From my personal experience, I feel as though a private school education is necessary for children to be prepared for college,

Imagine growing up not having a formal education. Determining if good education is a right or a privilege is a very debated topic in the United States. Not only could an informal education harm the student, but it could impair their future. Therefore, acquiring a degree is essential for ninety percent of jobs on the market today. Having a good education should be a right in order to enroll into college, obtain a degree, and have a brighter future.
