Educational system


People might wonder why I choose to blog about the educational system. It's because the educational system is one of the greatest issues which people hardly look into. We looked into the problem of volunteering, donating, recycling, unemployment, smoking, drugs..etc. but never realised that all those problems are connected to one thing : the EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM.

Whenever I log in twitter or face book the most common thing I read : why school? But the question which pops in my mind when I read this is : why not school?

I was one of those students who wanted to spend their whole time only in school, even though my old school had no student council, activities, enough field trips or a heard voice.All we learned since childhood was study, study & study. without any home works but study. However, in my new school I have nearly everything a student would ask for plus studying and a bunch of home works and quizzes . But I don't feel like going school anymore.

Now a second question pop-ed. I experienced being under pressure & under a stress free environment but I liked the environment where I had been under pressure because they were my family but I always nagged about not having any freedom or activities. I really coulldn't find any conclusion for this as to where the problem is.
The first thing I tried doing was asking people whether the problem was in the educational system, people using it or us the students?

If we are going to list the problems which our educational system has we might never finish. Even if we are going to list the problems with the Stakeholders ( a business student ) of all the schools we'll face the same problem of never finishing.

I can't blame people or the educational system either, but I know there is a solution for this & I have to fix it. I believe that change must start within me so that I can help other people change.

Sharing this issue is something I always wanted to do. But finding a solution is a thing I'll always seek into.

  1. Interesting blog post... imo, I think the problem is with each student and not the school. Each person has his own opinion. I personally enjoy going to school due to the social environment there as well as my need to finish my education (no shit). I don't think students have grasped the *importance* of education.

  3. Our generation is the generation our parents hoped to be in, I believe. They lacked, during their time, the facilities we have and the opportunity for a wider variety of subjects to study and explore.
    Therefore I feel like most of the pressure we are experiencing is due to their desires being pushed upon us. They bring all the good things they never had into our lives so that we can experience more; however, this bulk amount of development is pressuring.
    That is why we feel like we don't have a voice, because the educational system was not built by us, nor does it fit our way of thinking.
    I believe that is why most students do not enjoy school; there are other reasons, but this seems like a deep justification.

    Oh, and awesome blog (Y)
