Role of Education for National Development

He went on to tell me that in his experience, education never ends. “Even if you go to college and get a PhD, you still learn new things every day.” After he went to all of his formal education, he got a job, got married, and had a kid. Then, the recession hit. In a way that made him seem distant, he said, “I was 49 years old, unemployed for the first time in my life, and had a kid to raise.” During this time, he learned more about the world than he ever did in

One shouldn’t claim themselves as educated based off their grades, what type of school they attend, or simply just the accumulated knowledge they obtain. Being educated involves the characteristics one obtains and how one uses those characteristics in the real world. One definite, exemplary aspect of education is one’s ability to think critically. To think critically, one must make reasoned judgements that are logical and well thought out. If one is a critical thinker, they will contemplate the reasons for and against doing something before making impulse decisions. By doing this, one makes decisions based on fair assessment, not the basis of their emotions and immediate thought. By exercising this in one’s everyday life, it shows more education

I’ve learned from my parents the most important things in life are God, and family first, and the value of a college degree. These lessons in life

My father was a military man, so he always had a plan. As a child, my father always encouraged me to never stop learning. “Learning is power,” he would tell me. He was tough on me. Learning was a way up “If you don’t understand something look it up, research it, but don’t give up. Education is hard, if it was easy we would all have degrees and diplomas” he would say. “Don’t try

Attaining an education, or simply learning, has always been a rather important component of my life. From an early age, I was captivated by the idea of knowledge; of discovering things I did not know existed; it slowly became my dream to learn as much as I possibly could. As I got older I also realized that a good education had a significantly high correlation with opportunities in respectable careers. I also began to understand that in addition to my hopes and dreams of getting an education, my parents also shared the same hopes and dreams for myself along with the hope that I would be able to establish a career for myself. It was truly evident as I continued to grow, with the guidance of my parents that I wished to dedicate my life to learning and to invest in an education.

During my senior year of high school, my father and I started to discuss my future plans and goals, and that’s when he changed my perception on the importance of education. He explained all the hardships he faced and shared with me stories of instances where he made avoidable mistakes due to his lack of higher education. Although he managed to turn his life around, he had no doubt that he would’ve been more successful if he was educated. My father inspired me to be the first in the family to complete a higher level education and take over the family business one day.

Schooling is one aspect that keeps appearing in each one of my adult life phase chapters. My parents were a huge influence on me continuing in education. My dad was the driving force since he would constantly tell me how important an education is to a person. He used himself as an example since he never even made it to the high school level. He always stated that having a high school and college degree will open doors and opportunities for people to be successful. Furthermore, I saw how hard he worked at his blue collar job for over 40 hours a week on a little bit above minimum wage. Thus, the drive for me was to be better than my father. That is one of the reasons I'm trying to obtain my doctoral degree.

When I was young, my father instilled in me the value of an education. Education is the tool for success. Without an education, you will hinder yourself in the opportunities to learn valuable skills.

Also, I had seen the troubles and the limitation that my mother and many other people, especially women around me encountered in their lives due to the lack of education. I don’t want myself to experience the same

John Korsmo, who wrote the article titled, “When Schooling Doesn’t Matter at Home”, tells his personal story of how his parents did not encourage his education. He says they actually often

There was never an emphasis on education in my household and unfortunately, I perpetuated that erroneous mentality throughout high school by emulating my atmosphere. Now that I am a prospective USC transfer to a prestigious business institution, I truly believe

“You have to study well and go to the college because you cannot do anything without a college degree”. Almost parents always mention that sentence to their children because they believe college is the only way to have a successful future. However, when we grow up and have many problems in life, we cannot attend to school or college for many reasons. So we have to build a successful future without college. That statement is not absolutely right because we have seen many people successful without a college degree like Abraham Lincoln, Pete Cashmore, Bill Gate…

As a child, my family always taught me that having an education is important. My dad works but doesn't get paid that much. He always tells me how he wishes he would have listened to his mom and continued his education instead of going to parties. I’m very fortunate that I have the opportunity

“I have never let schooling interfere with my education,” by Mark Twain. Mark Twain is differentiating between education one gets at school and education one gets from real life experiences. There are high chances that experience that a person gets from real world cannot get in school or college. A person cannot live his or her entire life with only knowing information or facts learned from school or college. A person also needs talent, skills, and real world experience to live. College is one of the good ways to get education and become successful in life, but I will not say that it is the only way because a person cannot go to college and achieve success too. There are reasons why one should not go to college, as college is very expensive, college wastes time and money, and college do not guarantee a job.

What’s the one thing that your parents always tell you? Get an education. We have heard it over and over again. You need a good education to get anywhere in this world. An education is the one thing my parents made sure that my brother and I had. They made sure we were at school on time everyday and ready to learn. My parents want me to have the best education that I can, but going to school in America is anything but the best.
