Do you agree with the viewpoint that people are now easier to become educated than in the past.
21:22-21:52
It is undeniable that education is of great importance no matter during which period people live. In the long past, the noble hired private teachers to tutor their children, whereas nowadays parents are willing to do almost whatever they can to support the children's education. However, unlike the past, it is much easier for people today to receive education because of advanced technology, well educated parents as well as educational environment.
To begin with, modern education has developed to the point that almost everyone is accessible to education which is absolutely impossible for those who lived in the past. For instance, during the past, the poor who lived in the remote village did not attend school because it was too far and unaffordable as well. On the contrary, thanks to the advent of computer and the internet, people can get access to learning wherever they are and whenever they want. For instance, students can take online courses about astronomy at home in the deep night. Besides, apart from the computer, other facilities such as sophisticated telescopes enable people to pursue academic research in a more convenient way. It is not an exaggeration to say that if only they want, people today can be educated as easily as possible.
What's more, parents are better educated than their counterparts living decades ago. Most of them graduated from colleges and universities, it is a piece of cake for them to teach basic science to their children at home, which means they can perfectly assisted in the education of their children. Parents in the past often were skillful at a certain field such as carpenters, unlike craftsman, parents nowadays even master more than two foreign languages. For example, most children in China can speak English at the age of five due to the daily conversation with their parents in the second language which is definitely unachievable long ago.
Finally, the educational environment also plays a significant role in the easier availability of education. As the social develops, the attitude towards education changes considerably. People tended to drop out of school owing to various reasons, however, it seldom happens today. Governments allow larger proportion of financial support to education, charity organizations offers numerous amount of money to support the poor who cannot afford tuition fees. Also, various educational programs in the university are extremely attractive with highly progressive equipments and resources. The list will go on. In the main, education is much more achievable compared with the situation in the past.
In all, people pay highly attention on education all the time and it is especially apparent today. Because of the social development, people nowadays are enjoying better education environment resulting in further thriving in the future. |
