Education in Evolving by Morgan - July 2022 Scholarship Essay
As I look at how education has evolved over the years, it has its positive and negative aspects towards teachers, parents, staff and most importantly students. Now a days, technology has played a role within education; such as testing, resources to help study as well as teaching. Although I hope to see changes in education over the next 10 years such as a flip class room, access to textbooks online and studying resources.
A flip classroom that I realized has given me the opportunity to understand and study the different materials prior to coming to class. Given that, it helps prepare me for when class starts and it gives us the interaction with our teachers to understand it better. In other words, studying the material or looking over it prior to class gives the students the opportunity to have an idea before coming to class to ask questions and put it to use.
In addition to having a flip classroom, access to textbooks online gives us access to it wherever we go. Meaning, without carrying multiple textbooks where ever we go, we have access to it on our fingertips. This is also useful for children, since they always play games and watch tv on their ipads.
Furthermore, studying resources online can be accessible hopefully in the near future to help students study in various ways. For example quizlet, is a well known resource. I hope to see certain study resources are accessible for different age groups in the near future. Whether it is different books for different age groups that they can read online as well as quizzes to help test them after, or games pertaining to math or spelling.
In conclusion, education is evolving as we speak; especially with technology in the making. I hope to see changes where every student as well as teachers, staff and parents can have access to education online.
