Education - A Student's Perspective
In our ECI 832 class we were asked to create a blog based on the following questions:
- Do schools really need to change? If so, in what ways?
- What sort of world are we preparing students for?
- What sort of education or education system will be needed to adequately prepare students for the world ahead?
- Is it possible to change our educational system, or is it more likely that the system will be replaced by other forms of education?
- What does citizenship look like in this future reality?
So asked my son Xander, who is a Grade 12 student with a semester to go in his high school career, what do you think about these questions? The results was a special edition of convos with vendi55.
