Your education has many objectives but at the heart is the desire to give you the tools to shape our world for the better. In recent years there has been a lot of discussion centered around changing the face of education because the world you will enter as adults will be radically different from anything that your predecessors have seen.
Do you think that we have truly changed education? Are you experiencing a new type of learning?
Your task is to:
1. Use your knowledge of World History and decide which model (Socratic, Medieval-Guild, Renaissance, or truly Modern) best describes the type of education you experience on a day to day basis. You must explain your choice with at least two details/examples.
AND
2. You must describe whether or not you believe the educational system is serving you well. It does not matter which one you pick, there is no right/wrong answer only a supported or unsupported answer. Include supporting details or examples for why you believe the system is or is not working!
In order to gain full points you may NOT repeat an example someone else has already posted and your post must answer BOTH parts of the question! Each contribution must be your own original thoughts. If you take information, a quote, or a picture from a website to help explain something be sure to include a correct citation!
