"Education Forum"

Before we can discuss the subject, we must first define what it is, what it should be and how it can become the tool for pushing all students forward into a life of preparedness.

Education Defined and Refined

I am sure that school was the first word that came to your mind when you saw the title of this forum. And though school is the main resource for gaining academic and vocational skills, there is more to education than learning how to read, write and calculate. And it is more than information gained strictly in an institution of learning (school, college). To be complete, education must include hands on job training within a work environment, gaining money management skills, family planning, character development and learning via other's life experiences (mentoring) to get an understanding of how to survive in the real world … for all students.

Education helps in not only finding and maintaining employment, but also in gaining self-confidence. Once gained, it is not easily taken away and provides a sense of accomplishment and desire to continue setting goals and achieving. One of the most important factors in getting the proper education is to determine as early as possible what your goals are in order to match coursework and training with objectives.


Reason Some Students Are Not Interested in School

The earlier a child is introduced to the purpose of education, given proper incentives for learning, explained the significance of doing well in school and given additional assistance, chances of having a successful school experience should be greatly increased. Statistics show that many children are often turned off to education during elementary and middle school ages for various reasons such as becoming bored, seeing no purpose for learning, would rather be playing and talking with friends, have a learning impairment, don’t understand the assignments, falling behind and not passing, don’t get along with other students and/or teachers and being suspended or expelled.
