The Importance Of Education In Education

Many students of color often fall victim to learning in under budgeted schools, or when they do seek to receive a great education, they are put in places where they feel like they do not belong. In the TED talk titled “How students of color confront imposter syndrome,” speaker Dena Simmons presents the issue of the “price” that many students pay for learning while not white. Simmons successfully presents her argument by using powerful, emotionally-engaging personal stories, adding subtle statistics to back up her claims, and brings it home by showcasing how her experiences lead to a career in teaching, which aids in establishes her credentials.

Freud believes there is three parts of a person's personality, the Id, Ego and Superego. The Id is the portion of the brain that is based on a “pleasure principle”, meaning that this is the part that controls a person’s craving and wants. There is also the Ego which is based on the “reality principle”, meaning this is the section of your brain telling you how it really is and saying you can’t have something based on the present situation. Lastly, there is the Superego which is based on “moral principle”, meaning that you can’t have something your Id wants because it is morally wrong. Henry Turner was living a fairly normal life, till one day his Id took over and he wanted some cigarettes and when he went to purchase them something unexpected happened. A man was trying to rob him, but Henry wouldn’t give up his money and tried running away and got shot twice. He was able to live through, but when he came back, he wasn’t able to be himself, he couldn’t walk, talk or remember anything about him or his life. He went through extensive training and rehab to be able to retain the walking and talking part that he had forgotten. While in rehab,

I entered education with the intent to use my life to make a difference for my city, state and country. I was flagged early in my elementary education as student that was struggling academically. My parents were fortunate enough to be financially able to send me to a specialist working in a private school. I spent much of my time from grade three to eight in a special education setting where I made great strides academically. Upon entering high school I returned to a public high school, tested out of my IEP and entered the advanced track.

Your grades represent who you are. ‘Get into a good university’, your parents are always asking. What happened to the other 5 percent? Become a lawyer or a doctor, that is all that matters.

We are in a point of education that change is inevitable. In the essays written by YoY o ma and by Graemer Wood a common position the both seemed to have was that education needs to be changed be it the way we approach teaching or learning. If we can improve the techniques then we are able to create a more successful life for future generations. The goal of education is to teach and to improve society as well as education. However, to improve an area one must work in that area and change the stability of that area such as how wood and Ma discuss.

Teachers are overloaded and overwhelmed with the daily, weekly, monthly, and annual progress monitoring requirements placed upon them by their departments of education and schools alike. With the constant forms and reports necessary to document their efforts and effectiveness, many are on the verge of burn out and disillusionment with the dream of truly being educators. Reaching out to a coworker who is worn and tattered by the regularly increasing demands for greater performance and one more mandatory curricular addition is an act of mercy and love. This is love for our fellow man and love for the futures of the youngsters placed within that teachers’ realm of authority.

Experience and Education Empowering To be empowered is to be more confident in, and more aware of oneself. To be empowered is to have a more complete understanding of what one must accomplish in order to live more fully. It is to grow in self-knowledge. It is to grow in self-awareness.

According to Mrs. Weaver, and Mrs. Smith, schools are adjusted according to state and district assessment results by a grading card. The purpose of the North Carolina evaluation instrument is to allow education officials to be able to assess teacher abilities to teach by North Carolina standards. Furthermore, to provide the framework to determine how effective teachers are educating their students and allow teachers and education officials to step in and make adjustments if needed. Teachers can have the opportunity to monitor that own performance and make adjustments. Finally, she states that the, in a nutshell, the purpose of the evaluation process is to measure classroom performance and measure the teacher’s reflection basis for teacher improvement as well as a guide for teacher’s professional development. Professional development for teachers is a process in which they gradually obtain knowledge and skills to improve their teaching abilities. Mrs. Smith stated that she loves teaching and obtaining knowledge because graduation day is the best day in a student’s life.

In the classroom, teachers lack the training to effectively teach a foster child. To be able to promote educational stability for the child, it is paramount that the teacher is in communication with the foster parents. In an article by National Center Brief, the authors list the appropriate responsibilities of a teacher when caring for a foster child (7,8). The list includes having monthly meetings with the child’s foster parents, caseworkers, and principal to catch each other up on how the child is doing and how they can better plan the child’s educational future. One of the ways teachers can better aid children in the foster care system is by looking at their educational assessment prior to being in foster care.

As a current educator, we need to be prepared to create plans, which will assist students, as well include our vision of working as an educator. These programs purported to “enhance students’ social competencies and behavior,” strengthen students’ emotional literacy”, “promote conflict resolution nan inter-group understanding,” “reduce anti-social behavior” and “promote [students’] positive relationships with their teachers and peers” (Seider, 2012, p. 219). A person can do many things, but a person needs to choose, are they going to be positive or negative choices. So, when we show children to see the importance of equality, they can have made decisions with diverse thoughts in their visions. After all, children have the rights to a valuable, educational, and most importantly, equality lessons, regardless of the community our students have or are exposed to. If we want to create schools where all students can be challenged and stimulated, and where their talents can be cultivated, we need a different paradigm to guide our schools (Blankstein, Noguera, & Kelly, 2016). Currently I teach students from ages three years old to five years old, in some cases we have students that are kindergarten age, they stay with us during the summer prior to school starting, as we are a year around preschool program. We teach the child's self\-help skills, writing skills, gross and fine motor skills, and language skills. Thought-out the day we have a daily schedule. Equity in the classroom to

The American system of high school has prevailed for years despite being an ailment in contemporary society. Society is not perfect and will never be, nonetheless, future generations can be prepared to face it and change it through education. However, there are two main flaws of the classic American high school system that obstruct the proper development of students: it doesn’t adequately prepare them for their futures and there is an unhealthy relationship between sports and academics.

Schools are not Teaching what is Necessary for Students to Succeed Outside of the Classroom

The essence of being well educated is foremost the biggest issue in this world today in order to succeed as much as you can in society. “The difficulty understanding societal issues lowers the level of community involvement and civic participation” (Green, & Riddell, 2007). In a household worrying about the economic adversity is big when it comes to one being illiterate, particularly when that person is the main supplier. One cause is generational spread of literacy. What this is saying is, “Children have a higher chance of being illiterate if brought up in a household of parents who are as well illiterate.” These families usually don’t have a greater supply of materials in the home related to school, because it isn’t something important to the family. These are the parents who feel that their children can make it just the same way as they did without the proper education. Parents cannot educate the children, due to not knowing what to teach them because they didn’t get any schooling. Maybe these same people didn’t get any teaching from their own parents. Being in the education field myself, I know that we as parents should be our child’s first teacher. Growing up with parents who are educated, shows children how to succeed in this world. These are the same people who when they get older in age isn’t able to read properly their prescriptions. “As consumers, adults with low literacy struggle to obtain health services, buy groceries, take medications, and pay bills, among

In education it has become clear that there is one main problem that has a serious effect on our nation as a whole, and that is the achievement gap. This problem is obvious in college admission rates, graduation rates, suspension rates and test scores. Five years ago I was able to be a part of a team at a middle school that allowed us to sit down and discuss the issues facing our students at our medium sized K-12 charter school. This focus team eventually led to my role as a leader on our PBIS Implementation Team.
