EDUCATION TODAY (2)

                                       



                                    In my previous blog i made mention of the views of people about education and i elaborated of the fact that at least 90% of today's people would have a good opinion about education being the key to everything but actually referring to school education. I also talked about the remaining 10% making a point out of the great inventors who were school dropouts but were able to achieve something great and their opinion towards school education about it not helping us to realize or explore the God given talents in us.


                                   Well in my opinion, i stand for both parties because i think that everyone knows his/her abilities and capacities, maybe what may workout for me might not be working out for you or someone else. School education in this case has also played her part in the lives of people in our world today, even in the ancient days there was education and which we can record that Moses(Servant of God in the bible) was a well educated person. As it is written in the scriptures

              ACTS 7:22,
                                  "Moses was educated in all wisdom
                                      of the eypptian and was powerful
                                            in speech and action."

 The word 'educated' in this passage of scripture proves the existence of education in the ancient days.



                                   And also with the others points of education in not allowing us to explore the talents we have is also correct because not everyone is good with the book type of education. A man named Howard Gardner who is an American developmental psychologist and a professor at Harvard University came up with a research called 'THE THEORY OF MULTIPLY INTELLIGENCES'. There are eight of these multiple intelligences in which he tried to explain the different ways or styles of learning, he understood that not everyone of us has the ability to study or learn in the school or book type of education. Since our ways of studying are different he proposed these theories(intelligences);


*Visual-Spatial intelligence
*Bodily-Kinesthetic intelligence
*Musical intelligence
*Interpersonal intelligence
*Intrapersonal intelligence
*Verbal-Linguistic intelligence
*Logical-Mathematical intelligence
*Naturalistic intelligence



  These theories shows that some of us are good at studying with touch, body movement, logical reasoning and etc. So let's not forget who we are and the better way we can acquire knowledge for ourselves.

EDUCATION TODAY

                                                                  W hen we talk about education in this our modern world or day, we mean a whole lot and not just about learning and becoming something or someone great in the future but also the side effects, whether it may be positive or negative. If you go out and ask people what education is, you might probably get the same answer from everyone, at least 90% would agree on the same thing about how education is good for the society and in this modern world. They will elaborate on how education is the key to everything in this world including success and knowledge, which is very true, but in their case they are referring to school education but we need to understand that the acquisition of knowledge and skill is not necessarily acquired at school but also at home, in our communities, friends and even our culture. Knowledge can be acquired everywhere. For the remaining 10%, i would not know their answers but some would try to use
