Education is the key, School is the lock


  • Education is about inspiring one's mind not just filling their head: I am totally agree with this sentence because I am not the kind of student that is good remembering dates or numbers that are useless. I think that most of the subjects that I’ve done in my life, won’t be useful for me in the future. Teachers don’t have to put information in student’s head thinking that they are doing a good job. They have to inspire students mind and try to take out their opinions. I am student and I know that people have incredible things in their heads, awesome thoughts and own opinions about everything! That’s the reason that I like philosophy, it’s a kind of subject that makes you thing.  You don’t have to memorize when Franco did something or what’s the reaction between water and nickel for example.
     
  • Redefine, how you view education. Understand its true meaning. Education is not just about regurgitating facts from a book on someone else’s opinion on a subject to pass an exam: I think that in the first sentence I have already explained what my opinion about that is but it’s more o less the same. It’s easy to talk about how you have to view the education. I think that most of the things that I’m doing now won’t be useful for me in the future, like history, but I have to study, because I have to pass an exam, because I want to study in the university. But if I don’t do the first step, I can’t get my objective. I understand that I have to understand what I’m studying, but, I don’t really think that everybody will understand all the subjects. Because if you want to study INEF, for example, you want to understand how the body works, but you don’t want to understand why Colon went to America. So it’s difficult to explain that, because I know what he wants to transmit with this sentence, and if someday I have a child, I will say to him/her that they have to understand what they are studying, because that’s the way that you have to study, although I think that 80% of education of school consists in   regurgitating facts from a book on someone else’s opinion on a subject to pass an exam:
  • Looking at David Beckham is more than one way in this world to be an educated man: Nice example to finish this speech. Football players example it’s a good example to show that there are a lot of people that don’t have a degree or a master because they preferred to do something else when they were little. And this people aren’t uneducated, you only have to listen great football players that are great persons too, like Xavi Hernández, Steven Gerard or Frank Lampard. Football players are one of the most examples of people that had dropped out of school and they are educated and intelligent people. So finally we don’t have to judge people because they don’t have a degree, the batxillerat, or because someone is studying social o scientific batxillerat, because in most of the cases, people will surprise you.
