Importance Of Filipino Education In The Philippines

In the story, “A Place Where the Sea Remembers” by Sandra Benitez, every character faces major difficulties of some sort. From Marta being raped to Don Justo’s daughter dying, there are twists and turns around every corner. A topic the author brushes upon is education and where it lies in society. By getting an education, anyone can acquire more wealth and can be useful in day to day life. “A boy’s education is very important” (Benitez 73). There is also the population who can not simply afford to get an education. This is where Benitez’s message on education starts to form and the audience is faced with conflicting sides of education or staying to support. The author’s message about education is that it is essential and very beneficial to anyone, which is shown in the scenario with Ines and Rafael, Beto and the teacher, as well as Candelario’s comments on education.

Education, by definition, is the process of receiving systematic instruction, especially at a school or university. In Joseph Zobel’s, Black Shack Alley, we come across many different forms of education. Jose, the protagonist, moves from the plantation town, Petit-Bourg, to a more urbanized town, Forte-de-France. The education he receives in these two places differ because of the difference between the impoverished country environment and the wealthy town environment. Jose’s education from two very different places, a wealthy town and a poor country, is not limited to lessons learned in school, but expands to lessons learned from people around him.

Malala Yousafzai and Sherman Alexie are both representations of those who unfortunately do not experience the same and simple journey towards education as most of the world does. In their works, “He Named Me Malala” and “Superman and Me”, Malala and Alexie respectively share their unique experience with the aspect of education that is so common to us. Their journey is full of ups and down, pushes and pulls and successes and failures. It defines a significant part of who they were, are and have become later in life. Their journey while similar on the surface, also was very different when dug deeper. The difference between Malala and Sherman's path to education is that while Sherman had a choice to go to school, Malala did not have that privilidge, and the similarity between the two is that both of their fathers played a paramount role throughout their journey.

In many countries living in extremely poor conditions, not only is basic health an issue but also the lack of education. Although it is a necessity, “more than 72 million children of primary education age are not in school and 759 million adults are illiterate” (Rights to Education 1). The deprivation of education should be taken serious if a change is wanted. People need to become aware of how important education is and the benefit that it has. Douglas and Malala struggled to gain an education in order to resist control by others, which affected their lives in multiple ways; however, they were able to reveal the value of education to all.

After going through chapter one to chapter five of No Excuses University (Lopez 2013), I took note of the format which Lopez used for each chapter, a vital factor that makes each chapter easy to follow. To begin with, his writing style was diligent with respect to the way it mirrors a conversation between tow professionals that care about teaching and learning. Secondly, Lopez started every chapter with a fundamental concept section with the aim of frontloading the person who reads. Lastly, he made sure that no chapter was complete without a final section of Theory of Practice. It is but a transformational guide and not a book study as almost all sections begin with questions, which teams may deliberate upon and with step-by-step suggestions, which schools may act upon.

Malcolm X once said “Education is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepared for it today.” In the western world education plays a vital role in shaping our future; it determines if we will survive or fail in the world we created for ourselves. Our world is constantly changing and it requires a society that is well versed in understanding the problems deriving from cultural differences and tolerance of one another’s beliefs and perceptions. With the power of education we are able to deal with the problems of economic, government, religion and culture differences.

The significance of education cannot be stated enough, which is an investment to a better future. Getting an education is one of the most powerful things a person can ever obtain. It is crucial to the overall development of the individual and the society as a whole.When individuals do not have the option of getting an education due to the cost of the schools as well as the lack of schools itself. For those living in poverty it can be difficult to earn the same amount of education as other people who are considered middle or high class. The first time they are introduced to a formal education is in a school building. The school system lays out a foundation that develops a child 's mind, nurtures their gifts and teaches about responsibility. These key factors set up a child to become successful and soar high in life because they have learned the basis to society. Children from disadvantaged backgrounds are forced to abandon their education due to health problems related to malnutrition, or work to provide support for their family. In some third world countries the lack of education is scarce and not valued as much. “Education is critical for breaking the cycle of poverty and yet over half of the world 's schools lack access to safe water and sanitation facilities” (the water project, a good education. pg2). This quote is so important because the only way to combat poverty is to have knowledge to do so. So without that power you can’t elevate and break the chain of hardship.

In Crossing Border "Finding Our Voice: From Literacy to Literature” by Sergio Troncoso talked about education throughout the author Troncosco’s life. The genre that Troncosco used to explain education is personal education essay. His purpose of writing this essay is to inform the reader how much education mean and what it mean for his personal background. He is mainly mentioned education defined who he is and himself as a power of field he chooses. Further in Troncosco’s educational life, he has met many teachers, professors that encouraged and changed his life. He explained how his teacher inspired him to be proud of his heritage, encourages, reason why he earned scholarship and started to study at Harvard University. He defined education is a self-propelled human being, a lover of questions and a relentless seeker to answer.

When it come to “The Dreamer” by Junot Diaz and “The Cruel Country” by Judith Ortiz Cofer one woman want to stay and the other wants to go. When comparing these essays you see the similarities and the difference in each of the women and their lives. From their struggles to their dreams from their past to their present. These women have similar backgrounds but they also have different life experiences that made them who they became. Which in turn helped to shape their children into who the would later become.

Dear honorable chair and fellow delegates, this is the delegate of Peru. It is her privilege to be able to take part in the upcoming conference representing Peru, and she looks forward to working multilaterally with Member States in addressing various issues at today’s conference.

Education is vital to one’s life and well-being, however since education isn’t free so many kids around the world can’t take advantage of it simply because of their economic status. When people become educated, it allows them to develop different perspectives and would not only see an improvement in their life, but in society as a whole. There’s no doubt that education is the most important thing to enhance the lives of individuals. Without it, kids aren’t able to reach their full potential, causing citizens to experience major issues in life such as a low standard of living, ignorance, and among other things. Education should be free for everyone, regardless of their economic background, because every individual is important and should have the equal opportunity to better themselves.

Preparing the music teachers philosophically, psychologically and competently brought about many changes in the United States Education curriculum. While it is a fact that a music teacher must be equipped about music history, theory, literature, and the will to perform, it is also a necessity that they will give emphasis about the contributions of contemporary music and world music. Music have undergone decades of transition that greatly influenced the legality of music instruction. Bennett Reimer's 1971 clarified the relationship between aesthetic principles and music education and his subsequent monograph broadly influenced music teachers to legitimatize music instruction that was based on more deeply felt beliefs regarding the nature and importance of musical experience.

According to Dr. Jose Rizal “Ang kabataan ang siyang pag-asa ng bayan” that’s why education should be plan wisely. Having a good quality of education is having a powerful community; if people in the community are educated then economy will be better. If we want to have a better economy of coarse we should have knowledge and skillful graduates that industry needs. To meet the goal we must improve our education system and the key to that is to implement and support k-12

“We were all humans until, race disconnected us, religion separated us, politics divided us, and wealth classified us.”

In the Philippines, the 1987 Philippine Constitution declares that education is a right of every Filipino (Maligalig, 2010). Thus, the policies of the government on education have been primarily about education for all citizens. Being a right, this must benefit every member of the Philippine population regardless of their language and ethnicity. The right to education, however, must not be confined in the context of being able to go to school or having more areas and structures for schooling. The right to education is undermined and meaningless if teachers are under-trained, learning curricula and materials are irrelevant and learning environment is unsafe and not conducive (Mapa, 2013). In the case of the indigenous people, there are other aspects that can be added up to the context of an ideal education, specifically, tribal sovereignty. Such aspect comprises right of the people to self-government, self-education, and self-determination including the right to linguistic and cultural expression according to local languages and norms (Lomawaima, 2006).
