Miller’s Point of View for Education
As a college student, I agree with Miller’s opinion about the fact that education should be learning itself rather than getting the grades and degrees required to achieve other goals. The hard part is not about getting this idea to students but rather to get them to change and adapt their views towards educations. Such task is indeed very difficult; however, if these students are greeted with real-life examples that support Miller’s idea then things

General Education Requirements: Revision for Success
General education requirements, or GERs, in universities are basically what the name implies, "General." These courses are too vague in terms of helping each student succeed. The requirements are suppose to help each student become more well-rounded but this is done by pounding useless information in students' minds within a short amount of time. Therefore, students are paying money to learn about things that they will forget the next semester. General education requirements need to

Educator
As a future educators of public school systems, it will be challenging to create and achieve a democratic society. Even more so creating equality of educational opportunity. Many public schools have become holding tanks for children rather than an institution of learning for students. Many teachers feel hopeless and helpless in changing this attitude of public schools. The main reason is the equality of funding between public school systems. A public school educator of a

Brown Vs. Board of Education
Years ago, children of different races could not go to school together in many places in the United States. School districts could legally segregate students into different schools according to the color of their skin. The law said these separate schools had to be equal. However, many schools for children of color were of lesser quality than the schools for white students. Separate schools for blacks and whites became a basic rule in southern society.

Affirmative Action in Higher Education
Introduction: Affirmative action in higher education should be abolished. College admissions should be based on what the admissions board is looking for, not what the government says should be required. In this paper, I will present evidence to support that position. At one time, affirmative action was a needed and legitimate policy. Segregation has existed way too much in the past and has left people out of jobs, out of certain areas of town, and

MAINSTREAMED EDUCATION The purpose and goal of my research on mainstreamed education is for people to better understand the topic of mainstreaming as well as the purpose it can serve in providing a child with new opportunities.

Mathematics, Education, and Music?
Mathematics, Education, and Music? This article is very interesting in bringing up points and ideas of mathematics that I had never thought of. Dr. Heinz Gotze states that Mathematics is much like music. After Beethoven would play, he goes on, people wouldn't say "Hey, what was the use of that?". People, however, constantly are trying to determine the purpose of mathematics. The truth is there is no set purpose. Math is not a well discussed

Moral Education of Children
Moral education has always been an issue in schools. Although the methodology and the content have changed over the past years, ways to implement and bring these theories into the classroom and internalize them within children is still one of the important research topics. Moral education is most successful when it is passive and indirect. We all know that our best and deepest moments of learning were when we actually didn’t know that we are

Effects of Gender on Education
This topic is also well discussed in many of the standard textbooks, but a bit unevenly and a bit oddly. Thus Haralambos and Holborn (1990), or Barnard and Burgess (1996) have good sections specifically on gender and educational achievement. However, rather strangely, the section on education is treated almost entirely as a sort of empirical matter and not linked very well to the other admirable sections on gender generally, or gender in the family or
