Education has Change in Meaning

With this growth in national consciousness and national spirit among our people, we witness the corresponding rise of new conception of education!

In the old days, education was a matter of private concern, now it is a public function. The educated Filipino in the first place, should be distinguished not only by his knowledge of the past and of currents events in the world's progress but more especially by his knowledge of his race and his country, and his love of truths and ideals that our people have learned to cherish.

How has Education change?

With different ways of teaching progressing, one can't deny the fact that ones education process is then changed as well. It was not long ago when teachers could decide how to teach their students. Teachers would teach their students the same way they had been taught, or the way they saw best, however today, one would see a difference because there are more guidelines for teachers to follow. Some ideas are restricted and some have to be taught. If one was to ask all math teachers at one middle school, one would hear repeated answers of what they were teaching their students at a particular grade level. Students today have specific things they need to learn and teachers have less of an opportunity to branch out and teach their own way or add to the curriculum something they think may be important to add to a child's education.

Looking at the technology available to some teachers now, one would be surprised how much it changes their way of teaching. It makes teaching more hands on and active, unlike it's been headed towards previously. Education, seen as how and what students are taught, will constantly change every year because of the advances or beliefs of what's right or what's wrong.
