A reform is always done to correct a particular widespread fault in a certain system. It may also mean adopting new means and methods in order to accelerate the improvement of the current system. With the current pace of things, new technologies and formed habits are expected to radically change in a matter of years.
Talks about education reform are not new to the academe. Some members still prefer maintaining the traditional method of education, but other cry for changes. The present setup of education in many countries calls for students to go to universities and colleges and attend classes where professors impart their wisdom. Currently, there is nothing wrong with the setup, as this still fit the current system of things. One event, however, will happen for sure in the near or far future – a worldwide reform of the education system.
The call for reform is not without basis. There are significant issues that are being address to determine whether an education reform is needed. One of these issues is the use of the computer and the Internet as tools for learning. It is being debated whether the advent of this technology and it rapid improvement would render physical schools useless. In the future, students may not need to go to school, that is physically. Although, some institutions offer home education though the Internet, the academe has yet to see what a full implementation of an improved system could do.
The lack of funding, infrastructure and teaching materials are also pushing for the reform of the educational system. If an education reform is initiated and implement is first world country, others may follow, depending on its degree of success. The world just hopes that any reform would be for the benefit the educational system.
Thank you and God bless.
