What to do?

court asked:


What are the arguments against gifted and talented education?
I am writing a pros and cons paper on gifted education for my writing class and I am having a hard time finding information against gifted and talented education. The one argument I have seen is that it takes funding away from other programs but I just can’t find any info to back it up. I would appreciate any help! Thanks!

Do you think teachers deserve more pay/encentives? Do you think that your country/state’s educational system needs improvement? What, in your opinion, could be done to improve education and the perception of teaching as a profession?

Do you think sex education should be a manditory class in High schools across America? Why or Why not? Could this possibly prevent accidental pregnancy and help the economy?

Main Research Question:
How can Design Education enable a design thinker to operate in the contemporary world, and not so much on any particular discipline? The practical application of design.

Sub Problems:
1.The human brain. How do we think? How do we learn? What exactly is education? How does information play a role in my knowledge? How do I construct a mental model? How does consilence play a role in learning?
2.Ideas. Where do they come from? Is design a matter of problem solving or is it more than this?
3.How does the environment in which we learn play a role in education? How does mental and physical space play a role in both education and everyday life? In what context do we learn, and in what context does design take place, are these different?
4.Why is creativity so important in learning? How can other aspects of design play a role in the teaching thereof? How can education maintain inspiration?
5.Sustainability. What does this mean on an educational level?
6.Past models of education versus current models. What are these? What processes are involved in the fuzzy front end of design, and why is it just that…the “fuzzy” front end?
7.What exactly is technology and how does it play a role in education? What is intellectual technology? What is the difference? Where does all this fit into education?
8.Synthesis, integration, multi-disciplinary. Why are these key words in design education? The jump between education and the real world? How can the system help students deal with this?

There are several options for a child’s education in today’s world. There are variations in curriculum, teaching methodologies, cultural values, goals of education. There are novel options available today such as unschooling and home schooling that were not as common earlier. What then is an ideal educational system for a child from school through undergraduate and graduation? Where is the best education system available in the world for each of these levels?

Have a GREAT day! asked:


I would just like some opinions on this. Can only rich people afford a quality education? Do you think there are any consequences of not supplying a quality education to the less affluent? Does everyone need to go to college to be affluent? Why or why not?

My six year old is insistent that we build a fully functioning Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, as seen in the cartoon on Playhouse Disney, complete with flying Toodles, in our back yard. He cried when I told him he’d have to wait til after college. He claims he’ll grow up to build robots and machines anyway. If his goal were to be hired by Disney World to build the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, what sort of education would he need?
OMG, he’s already got every kind of building toy you can imagine. Erector sets, legos, magnetix, wooden erector sets, gears, k’nex. I got him a mousetrap game last week. He played it once then used the parts to build something else! I don’t think there’s any question as to what he wants to do!

I’m American and I’m thinking of applying to a British college. But I have no clue how the education system works, like how do you go ‘through the ranks’. Like what are A levels? AS levels? If anyone could give me tips on how I should proceed to apply to a college for Musical Education I’d be extremely happy
