Education is one of the most important pillars of society only after Family which is the first and most important. Central Asia Institute is doing a very noble work along with Greg by planting the seed in the kids that will make their society a prosperous one. Third world countries have always had this problem but most try to implement many resources in infrastructure instead of doing it in the system which in my personal opinion is what makes successful Greg’s approach.
Greg saw the way to make the experience of the people, particularly the students, more important and significative by providing the essential materials and including them in the process of the construction: A simple building, which in turn was made by the own villagers and that leads to a fuller appreciation of the importance of this structure as a mean to achieve a higher level of education in the population. He also gave the kids the necessary tools to learn in class, very archaic tools but at the end in a more metaphorical manner tools for their future (and for school).
Most institution have it the other way around, they thing that in order for a better education it is necessary to provide all students or habitants with the latest in technological advancements leaving behind an important aspect for a students development, the “personal level of involvement” that makes a statement of commitment and link between the teacher and the student, an example of common efforts to reach for the same goal and that stays in the kids minds for life.
I completely agree with you. In order to change a society for the best we need education. With education we can make better and informed decisions that influence our future and life.
ReplyDeleteSo lets continue studying to change the world.
I agree with what you have to say because much school now think that with technology we can learn more but in reality it does no good at all. For example, in math class my teacher never gives us paper work he always makes us do assignements online and that does not make sense. All he does is sit back and do nothing because if we need help the online system won't help only a teacher will. So I believe that teachers who are their to teach the kids one on one they will learn a lot.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your theory, what we need is education, because without education we can't get a good future. I think no one should be deprived of this privilege.
