Comparing Education: Past and Present Methods

Education: Past and Present

We live in an age where education has become a really important aspect of society. From a young age, everyone tries to teach us the best education and the best morals. Therefore, our parents are continuously searching for the best method to teach us what things we must or must not do in each situation. But is current education better than the old form of education, as nowadays teachers demand a lot of things from children?

A Look Back at Education Twenty Years Ago

Let us take a look at twenty years ago, when school and high school were completely different from the current school. The students saw the teachers as the most important figures in school, and they had great respect for them. But in reality, the teachers have to take care of and respect the students. For the reason that if the teacher tells off the student, the parents will scold the teachers.

Modern Education: A More Dynamic Approach

It is worth considering that modern education is more dynamic than the old style. The lessons are much more recreational, the books have different games for better and faster education. In addition, the students have to live together with their classmates, or they have to do different activities that they can find in real life. But we do not know if this system is more efficient than the older system.

The Merits of the Old Education System

On the other hand, I firmly believe that the old system is better than the new system. As a result, we can see that the older generation solves problems faster, and we are able to find different solutions for the same things. For the reason that the teachers never did our work, we had to solve our problems without their aid. Furthermore, we had to do lots of homework and study the lesson for the following day, whilst the younger generation does not do this.

Combining the Best of Both Worlds

As far as I am concerned, I can see different educational methods and systems, but the most important is that we could create the best educational method, mixing the old and the new methods. As a result, we will get a huge system where the main thing is an excellent education that has enjoyable and educational things. Consequently, the children's education will be of the best quality.
