The School System And True Education

Image
I have heard my friends and most people I have come in contact with here in school say categorically that they will not allow their children go for their university education without first having some sort of exposure at home for at least a year. looking at it critically, to an extent I actually agree with this ideology being someone who entered the university without actually knowing what to expect myself and now looking at the mistakes I made earlier in school which could have been adverted if I had the exposure I now have then, most of us came into the university with the mindset ''read, read and read'' but the truth is that this educating style actually limits you.        in all honesty, the saying "don't make the classroom your world instead the world your classroom" is very correct...if you focus only on what is being taught in the classroom you are limiting yourself to just one man's idea.To expand your horizon you need to go beyond the ordinar
