Almost there! This is gonna be our penultimate blog post. You have to write about some changes that could be made to your study programme. Keep in mind as you write:
Education has to be taken in a comprehensive way. That is to say, there should be a considerable number of people taking an active role in it -and by active role I also mean being responsible for it. But we have forgotten something important: education is what we give ourselves to bring up a more cohesive society. Therefore, we should be concerned with what quality education should really mean to every one. I dare say this is key to understand why we, as teachers, parents, and stakeholders, have failed. We haven't brought to the foreground what really should matter: people. Yes! People. We have focused on people's wallets instead. So, why should we care about having a better education if we are just thinking of it as if it were a car we can buy?
- The curriculum (The subjects you have to study)
- Workload and length of studies
- Faculty facilities (buildings and infrastructure)
- Use of technology
- Teaching methods
- Or any other ideas you deem necessary

Back in the day, I would have liked to be much more prepared to face my study programme. I think I would have had a thoroughly different attitude towards what I studied; my teachers/professors; and, obviously, my classmates. However, I feel the need to say that I am thankful for what I got because I wouldn't be most certainly the person I am now without it. You know that there's always something to complain about or someone to blame for. But before we do so, let's consider the following:

We have given ourselves meaningless education: too many subjects, never-ending dull hours in class, buildings in a poor state of repair, teachers that do not meet standards, and so on. So, yes, I would have liked to be much more prepared to face my study programme... and this living in the end. I then say "big changes can also make big differences". 3D-printed Jesus, I'm lonely!
P.D. I had a different idea for this post, but I think I let myself be carried away.
I think that long ago, education is not about people, instead their money and this has to change.
ResponderEliminarThe actual education needs a lot of changes and sadly we are all part of the sistem.
ResponderEliminarthere are many factors that nowadays in education have been left aside, while this the money factor will not be a significant change
