Personal Importance Of Education

Ever since 1840 American public schools have been running off of the same routine. Students are stuck in school sitting in a class, taking tests, or quizes, over and over again in the same exact routine. The creativity of children are being washed out of them and are being penalized for their unique differences. Education in schools are keeping children's minds wrapped up in a bubble to become a unified society. In the article “Against School” by John Gatto he expresses the boring environment in public schools. Gatto talks about how schooling shouldn’t be the answer for everything yet an education should.

The importance of education for all children, especially for those with special needs are limited with social and economic opportunities which is indisputable. When it comes down on improving our schooling system, we think “How can we improve the education program” without even considering how it affects our special needs kids and our program for them. Many challenges remain, including delays in providing services for children with disability, as well as regulatory and financial hindrances that complicate the program for all involved. Enhancing the system necessitates better ways of understanding and measuring both ends of the special education program, namely the services special education children need and receive, and the academic outcomes these students achieve. Which is why I decided to craft this issue into my mask for my multimodal project.

Education is a key factor of individual well-being, social progress, and inclusive growth. In the modern society, with increasing competitive pressure within individuals and countries, well-educated elites are needed. While more people realize the importance of education, in many countries, there are still a large quantity of problems with education such as education inequality and low quality education. In order to solve these problems, governments should restore more funds on education, since it can help eliminate the social inequality, bring more skilled workers, and raise the country's economical incomes.

Having an education is one of the most important things to have no matter where you are. My entire life I have envisioned myself as a teacher. When I was young I would line up my stuff animals and give them math problems to solve. As I grew older my passion never faded. In middle school I began volunteering as an assistant soccer coach where I would sit and help teach new skills, from there in high school I did my student internship at a local middle school. Not only did I have experience in these classes, I also was able to sit in my Mothers middle school math classes. So when I got to college I knew that I wanted to follow in my mom’s footsteps. Currently, being in my field study and middle education classes I have learned that becoming a teacher is one of the most rewarding and influential careers someone could choose. Middle school aged students are going through the transitional years of their lives. These students are changing provocatively, whether it be physical, intellectually morally, psychologically or socially, these changes will impact who they will be in the future. While students are going through these changes they need a role model in their lives to represent and guide them through these challenges. Each student is changing at different rates. Boys and girls are both beginning puberty at this point of their life, their bodies are changing rapidly physically, and new things are going on with their bodies that they have not experienced before. These changes

In today’s society getting an education is so important. Receiving an education is seen as a necessity that everyone should have. Now a day’s it’s almost impossible to get a job without having a college degree. Receiving a college degree is an honor and privilege, it’s also something that everyone should achieve but unfortunately not everyone is given this opportunity. Being given the opportunity to achieve a college degree is an exceptional thing that should not be taken for granted. Based on the statistics found in the source “If the World Were a Village”, it states what if only 7 out of 100 people received a college degree. These statistics show the privilege it is to receive a college degree.

During my childhood, my goal was to achieve my education because I knew that it was essential to success for not depending on others. Hence, having a diploma from college was my priority. What can people gain from having a college degree? Unfortunately, in 2013, my life turned in another way, my priority was not anylonger finishing my education, but taking care of my child. I was pregnant with my first child when I was 19 years old, and I stopped to go school and so that I can take care of him. It was certainly hard for me to choose between my education and my son. Nevertheless, I knew that sooner or later, I will have an opportunity to go back to study. It was my first year of my college when I dropped out of school, but my parents always pushed me to continue my education. When I think though about having a better life, I decided to go back to the college and make my dream successful. I knew that I will have more benefits by by returning to college.

The learning at school these days is not enough for the children because the education system fall around the concept of academics and that alone is not what the kids need. The monotonous teaching method used by the teachers at school does not motivate the children to concentrate in class. It is therefore very important for them to learn rather than just studying for the exams only. It is essential for these kids to master the concept and apply it throughout their lives. The students undergo a boring lecture and after that, they wonder about its relevance to the real world life. The teachers, therefore, are just there to make students go through chapter by chapter with the main aim of only making sure the students just pass the examinations. If the students are thought the values and the importance of the education then they would do much better in terms of performance and they will be in a position to apply the concept in the real-life situation and be able to come up with the solutions to problem-solving. The main aim of this essay is to discuss why the education is not enough.

As the daughter of Muslim immigrants, I grew up watching my parents work unpleasant jobs and long hours. Although my parents were not able to finish school and receive a high quality education, they continuously work hard to ensure that my siblings and I are being educated at the best schools. My mother always emphasizes the importance of education and taking advantage of the opportunities that arise with becoming educated. Since the very beginning, my parents have instilled in me, the love of learning and valuing the essence of education.

Now that we have outlined what Plato’s Pedagogy contains, I shall now proceed to ask myself if my education meets Socrates’s standards. The following information will cover any intentional or random education I received, the discrimination against specific materials in my life, and the role of fear and pain in my learning. Each section will loosely follow the age groups of which Socrates explained in his pedagogy. The age groups will include, 0-5 years, 5-10 years, 10-15 years, and 15 years of age to the present. The following information will also consider what Plato/Socrates would say about my education. Through Plato’s Republic and Pedagogy I have discovered the influence my education has on who I am, and who I am not.

The importance of education in the United States is stressed in words, by people who act like they want you to succeed, but do not push or motivate you to do so. My generation does want things handed to us without much effort having to be put in by us, but for most part if people push us to do things we will want to go above and beyond. I speak from my personal experience, but I know I am not the only person that can relate. People go to school just to receive a diploma or to get a degree, simply because it is instilled in us throughout our school years that if we don’t have a diploma or degree we won’t be able to get a job and be successful in life. McDonald’s will not even hire you without a high school diploma, so people do the bare minimum just to get that diploma. Students go to school to earn a grade, not to learn. I was one of those students that paid attention just so I could pass the test, then never bother to revisit what I learned.

Education, a necessity for many people to become successful later in life. When the option for education is taken away from a person, it is more difficult to progress in a career. Many people that aren’t allowed to go to school are not executing their full potential and no one would ever know if that person would have amounted to greatness that our country needed. There are many reasons that people are not allowed to go to school, it is commonly because of sex, race or where someone’s from. That’s is why, “The only way we can fight back is to excel” an article by D. Russakoff has multiple testimonies from Dreamers that can no longer do things they were once able to do. The only way I feel like I can relate to this is where I grew up and how much harder for people to get an education.

People all around the world are deprived of an education. Whether it is due to lack of resources, money, race, religious belief, or anything of that nature. Clearly, the UN states in their Human Rights document, that no person should be kept from an education because of race, gender, religious belief, or anything of the sorts. So why have people in lesser developed countries all over the world, been denied the privilege of education? Education is an essential part of human life, without it, the world would be filled with stupid people. With a world full of stupid people, the earth would be destroyed so fast, that no one could save it.

Public education began in the nineteenth century, now the majority of people have received some sort of public education. Whether someone has received a middle school education or a college education, any education will impact someone's life. Throughout educations existence, many people have come to believe there are many flaws with its methods, which is limiting students. However, public education helps to promote students to gain educational knowledge, the knowledge someone gains will positively affect their future.

Education is a necessary asset as it prepares children for adult life teaching them critical thinking skills as well as providing access to knowledge about the world they live in. Education imparts life tools, developing intellect as well as personal character, largely impacting many students lives, biasing their roles and lifestyles as adults. Black children suffer from an inadequate education as a result of an issue we legally eliminated sixty years ago, race. Since whites have been given the upper hand black children struggle for equal access to quality education. Over the years white influence has caused hardships that limit blacks from access to equal education. Black children are deprived of a quality education because of the lack of choice available to them caused by the restrictions associated with their race, lowering their likelihood to succeed. Being in this predicament ignites little belief and causes profuse sacrifices, resulting in defining freedom in a country where freedom is supposedly accessible to all, rather as something that is not complimentary but must be worked for.

A school is a system designed to provide a learning space for people under the influence of educational professionals. For centuries, education has played a major role in developing and changing the world. Therefore, children are obligated to go to school at a very young age to expose them to new skills, ideas, and knowledge. School is to provide the individual with the opportunity to further develop and learn their purpose in society. All around the world people are taught the same thing but feel unsatisfied and useless, are judged and labeled as a letter or number, yet for some people this system is beneficial for them.
