Essays on Educational System

John Derbyshire, writer of Taki’s Magazine, in his July 2011 article titled “What Shall We Do with the Kids?” grappled on the issue that confronts public educational system in America. He mentioned how New York City officials took bold steps to remedy some of the problems besetting schools. He said that even without those measures to narrow the gap or prevent the differences in learning outcomes among students, American schools flare comparatively better than other schools worldwide (with some exceptions, of course).

Derbyshire taunted public officials who want to improve students’ learning performance through ...

The article ‘Administrators of Special and Gifted Education: Preparing them for the Challenge’ by Mulligan, Neal and Singleton can be considered as a timely and relevant piece that has long been ignored. The enactment of the Public Law 94-142 - Education of All Handicapped Children Act also known as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) in 1975 is a major milestone in the United States’ education system. However, the act that aims to rehabilitate and educate children with special needs and disabilities through government funding and resources has its gaps and inadequacies. One particular gap that was identified is ...

In “Idiot Nation,” Michael Moore discusses the condition of the education system in the United States, and what according to him is the reason behind its deterioration. According to Moore, Education in the United States is failing because there are not enough qualified teachers, and because of elected leaders. He believes that political leaders throughout the United States are not focused enough on improving the educational system. Moore finds it ironic that politicians complain about the America’s set-back in the educational aspect, when it is they who are refusing to finance education. According to Moore, there ...

What re some myths about family life in the U.S.?

One of the biggest myths about family life in the U.S. was the myth about the stable and harmonious families that was famously depicted in 1950, even up to some 21st century films wherein the father and every member of the family enjoys their life as a part of that family. The father works hard to provide for his family, while the mother simply does the household chores. According to Eitzen et al. (2009), most husband-wife relationships were empty and in reality, members of the society lived under single-parent family banners with step-parents taking care of them. Divorce was not ...

The Relationship between Curriculum and Instruction

A common misconception is that the curriculum dictates exactly what and when a child is taught. In reality, and in more recent revisions of the curriculum, it actually shapes and influences what a child must learn in order to help them become a functioning member of society. For many, the curriculum is merely a selection of standards by which we must measure our nation’s children’s progress – instruction is the methods implemented to carry out those lessons. Therefore, the relationship between curriculum and instruction must be close but still kept as fluid as possible. It is clear that these two aspects of ...

Sex-segregated schools have gained interest in recent times due to the underachievement of many students. Educators nowadays are concerned about the issue of how to reform and organize the modern system of education in the USA in order it to work more efficiently. Many researchers posit that single-sex classes may have a positive effect on both males and females educational performances. The question whether girls and boys should be taught separately is quite ambiguous, meanwhile, the number of sex-segregated classes in the schools of the United States continues to grow. With the rapid spread of this educational practice, the issue ...

According to United Nations report (UNDP 7) on urbanization trends around the world, urban population has surpassed rural population between the years 2000 to 2005 and will continue to do so.

Introduction

Inequality in education is cruel and unjust it persists and cuts deep along individual and community memories.

Modern education standards are critical in fulfilling this gap and providing equal opportunity for all learners in life. Education plays a crucial role in modeling the learners from different backgrounds in order to create tomorrow’s socially just society.

Introduction

Each and every education system in the world is designed to suit the explicit desires of the ruling class and regimes. Evidently, there are nations whose major goals that shape their education towards the pious person. This scenario could be the opposite for other nations whose main goal of education is geared to war-like informed individuals and graduates. Other governments concentrate their systems to produce the industrious man who loves quality in all dimensions that is, taste, character and knowledge.

Introduction

According to Burns (99), learning is comparatively permanent change in behavior, whereby behavior is the observable activity as well as internal processes such as attitudes, thinking and emotions. Burns holds that learning may not show itself in observable behavior immediately the educational program has happened. Learning occurs in different settings such as at home, during play, at work or more commonly, at school. In formal settings, learning takes place in a classroom, library or laboratory. Teachers facilitate learning on different levels. On the other hand, apprenticeship is a combination of training on the job and related classroom instruction through the supervision ...

A meritocracy is a society and economy that focuses on rewarding efforts and capability and does not base on the status of the family. Sources have confirmed that individual capabilities are often inherited. Educational accomplishment is usually affected by family setups, which correlates with both effort and ability. American citizens, for instance, have equated a meritocracy with equality and opportunity together with a forgiving, open, and publicly funded schools meant for everyone. In USA, education is considered a great equalizer and generator of a just meritocracy (Arrow, Bowles & Durlauf 81). Based on the argument of functionalists, educational systems in present day industrial societies are ...

- Introduction Alain Badiou is a French philosopher, born in 1937 to a war-ravaged France. Throughout the years, he has written a number of important texts; the two most important of these texts were Being and Event and Logics of Worlds. As philosophical texts, they caused a great deal of noise and discussion in the philosophical community. Badiou has addressed a number of important philosophical concepts in these texts, including the concepts of truth and being-- the latter of which became the subject of one of his most important texts, Being and Event. To discuss his views on these subjects, Badiou often ...

Introduction

In studying the status of world education, it is inevitable to compare the educational systems of countries around the world primarily because by comparison, it helps in the understanding of the relationship and disparities between two contrasting systems. By doing so, one could not help but wonder how most eastern countries lag behind in terms of proficiency and skills. It is a widely accepted notion that there is indeed a huge gap or disparity between the education systems of the western countries as compared to the eastern countries. This huge difference is undeniable reflected in the common assumption that people who ...

Before, the United States Supreme Court had ruled in the Swann v. Charlotte-Meckenburg Board of Education (1970) that bussing was an appropriate remedy to the ensuing racial imbalance problems in the school system. The aftermath of this ruling was to see schools in the United States integrating students from different races and social economic backgrounds so that each person in the country could get equal opportunity in education. This decision is related to the earlier ruling in the Green v. County School Board, in which the court had ruled that freedom of choice plan was insufficient to ensure that ...

There are a number of benefits to implementing a year-round school calendar, particularly through high school. For younger children, the importance of having a year-round calendar comes in their retention of knowledge. A three-month summer break is devastating for most children in terms of recall; teachers must spend most of the beginning of the next year reviewing the information that students were supposed to have learned previously. This wastes time, and puts students whose families did not review any academic concepts with them over the summer at a distinct disadvantage (Scholastic.com). The more this gap widens between children who have reviewed material and ...

New Orleans has been known for the revamping nature in the academic system. The charter system is being embraced at an alarming rate.

The United States of education system offers a real field of choices for America and students in a global world. A lot of schools, programs, and locations both publicly and privately institutionalized crops and thrives in major states. It shares much of its structures with both the British and German education system.

The East Asian educational system has garnered praise and attention for its scores in international rankings. This has led Western countries to question and re-evaluate its teaching methods to emulate this model in hopes of improving its test scores. While the U.S. outspends more money per student, the academic success of East Asian students may attribute their academic success to social, cultural and educational factors. In this essay, I will attempt to answer what factors lead to the academic success of South Korean, Japanese and Chinese students. East Asian students may be viewed as more successful in their ...

Abstract:

As a society we are constantly connected to our technology, as it touches most aspects of our daily lives. People are using new forms of technology to “envision and create new things in new ways, learn new things in new ways, and communicate in new ways with new people.”(Groff, Haas, Klopfer, and Osterweil, 2009) Smartphones and tablets have replaced the traditional learning methods once undisputable in schools with their efficiency and capabilities; their useful applications and visual stimuli. Though the real-world applications are applicable to everyone in the educational system, especially to students with behavioural disorders. We need to ...

As the effectiveness model obliges results and destinations to be characterized it just takes after that our perspective of certificates, skills, and different approaches to diminish a human into a capacity would take after. The reasoning runs so profound inside the understanding of instruction hypothesis that I end up a bit at a misfortune actually considering an alternative. Words like effectiveness have an extremely contemporary esteem in my calling, typically referred to from scholars, for example, Richard Clark. Expressed most essentially, why utilize any type of media that is more costly than one that accomplishes the same targets? For business, military and numerous ...

Education in the U.S.A.

Introduction

The academic market in the USA was relatively inactive during the first half of the last century. It has been shown that enrolments were low when compared to what was expected in the recent decades. The state appropriations to public universities are also passive. At the same time, the private foundations and corporations must have to expand the culture of supporting the institutions of higher learning. The rising cost of higher education has been one of the causes why enrolment turn out is low. Thesis Statement: The biggest problem in the educational system in ...

This course gave me an excellent overview of education and really highlighted the challenges and rewards of teaching. The field-based experiences and classroom observations gave me the opportunity to see real life educational environments. The legal and practical aspects of the educational system, such as common core standards and certification were really helpful. I now understand the importance of diversity, cooperation, the nature of the teacher-pupil relationship, and the structure and organization of the schools.

Introduction

Ghana, a West African nation and former British Colony, is the first sub-Saharan African country to gain independence from European colonial rule.

Dear Mr. Mann,

Recently it has come to my attention that the education of our country’s young men has fallen to the Europeans. While I respect the venerated educational institutions of Europe, I believe that the Republic would benefit greatly from citizens educated within our own country. As you well know, “the principle of patriotism stands in need of the reinforcement of prejudice, and it is well known that our strongest prejudices in favour of our country are formed in the first one and twenty years of our lives.” This need to reinforce strong prejudices (which will in turn strengthen the Republic) ...

W.E.B DuBois, the souls of the black voice

It was also a time when black men gained access to education and sought to become empowered.

Ross Perot as a Leader

Many see the 61-year-old Texas billionaire Ross Perot as the saving grace to a nation of high unemployment, low literacy, and inept national leadership. With a credibility of $3 billion net worth, people hoped that he would run the government as efficiently as he had run his own businesses. In 1962, he founded Electronic Data Systems Corp with $1,000. He later sold it to General Motors for $ 2.5 billion and a seat on GM’s board. However, GM bought back his stake due to clashes with the chairman. Later, Hewlett-Packard acquired the company. He made another billion-dollar company called the Perot ...

The traditional and conventional method of teaching by lecturing is outdated. The modern teaching as a concept develops around the need of integrating the freedom into the educational system in order to make the experience enjoyable for students. The old methods will cause the students to experience boredom, and, therefore, they may lose their interest in the educational career. The online teaching requires teachers to allow students to more liberty to do what they want to do. Otherwise, they will not learn. The modern teaching does not revolve around the teacher, but it does so around the students. The time ...

Paulo Reglus N. Freire was a renowned Brazilian philosopher and educator whose contributions and ideologies on issues relating to educational instruction laid the foundation for the current instructional concept called critical pedagogy. Freire is known to have clamorously attacked the common routines in classroom where students were often given a passive role storing information during the process of education. This undesirable mode of instruction is called banking education. This paper seeks to analyze Paulo Freire's article titled The “Banking” Concept of Education from a student and well-informed reader’s perspective with a view of appraising Freire's contentions in the article before proceeding to ...

1. In my opinion, the Social Disorganization is the best for explaining crime and the criminal behavior, because in my opinion most of the crimes occur because of the disorganized communities, in which there are no behavioral and social traditions, and this pave the way to the creation of the criminal traditions, which is then passed to the youth generation. So, a society with the disorganized social structure provides a land for the criminal activities through the cultural transmission of the criminal values, and lack of the behavioral control mechanism. Further, this theory can be considered as best for describing the ...

“Effective Pre K and Kindergarten teachers understand children’s cognitive development and promote cognitive skills.” In Jean Piaget’s theory of development, that stage that deals with pre-k and kindergarten is called the “Sensorimotor Stage.” This stage lasts from birth until two years of age. As a baby, children do not understand about the world. For example, when something is out of a child’s sight they assume it no longer exists. It takes a while for children to realize things and people have a life outside of the child’s vision. Also during this stage a child’s motor skills begin developing according ...
