In this world, every system has pros and cons so that it’s necessary to be under persistent development all the time, and we all aware of the developing revolutions which involved in every system in this world to reduce its negative sides, which begs the question is the education system also developed enough especially that we are using in the collage?.
Going to collage became a traditional act for all those interest the science. Truth to be told colleges has positive side and this era it’s considered the most popular source of general science. Every student have ability to study the faculty he interests in specific terms with different education scores. It is basically based to choose the student what will be the future according with his interests. The well prepared curriculum is designed to direct students with different hobbies, attitudes, interests and also going to work in different environments in order to manage successfully their future life.
In the college atmosphere student will be able to learn useful lessons about the life rather than those he gets from the teachers, meeting with different faces enforces to learn the student powerful communication skills. Working on the college schedule may teach the student to manage his time, where all are “busy, busy time, between class, studying, extracurricular, relaxation and socializing, it might seem that there are just not enough hours in the day. Saying that time manage is a handy skill would be a big understatement. The ability to properly map out your time and navigate a busy schedule is imperative” Wignall.
When we want to compare between a college graduated person and ungraduated in job opportunities we will get that we have to consider the difference sides and important points that can make a big difference between the two, like difference in faculties and specializations, the more experience they gained of the work and other factors that specifies work opportunities and amount of the salaries, but in generally it has no one shred of doubt that the college certificate makes difference in the labor market, because it became the key of jobs world in some cases, “getting a college degree is a pretty good idea. Indeed, if you’re someone who can get into college, going is practically a no-brainer. Those who go to college make more money and have more opportunities than those who don’t” Indiviglio.
Although all colleges are not same, for example according to many aspects in private institutions, community or public colleges, all defer in stigmas, quality of education, socialization e.c.t , and any student may can get confuse the pest avenue to advance his education, writing about stigmas and facts of community college, Lewis says “with the increasing demand for a higher education degree, coupled with the increased cost of both public and private four year institutions, community college has become an intriguing and advantageous academic avenue for students to consider when making their decision about advancing their education”.
Colleges have numerous stigmas that differ in its’ assessment among researchers in the teaching systems, and these stigmas are often discussed by critics of the current educational system in the world. The method of differentiation between the students or what known as examinations is not based on scientific outcome of the student, but almost tests, the natural strength of his memory, “encourage cramming rather than true and applicable knowledge; a game of chance and skill; standard of making not uniform; personal moods and approach of the examiners may effect objectivity; one year’s efforts tested in just two-three hours” Soumya. Using same method of communication with different talents gathered in one classroom is absolutely causes misunderstanding ideas to get across, in another word that is like dealing all students as if they are inventors, in that way most of them lose the opportunity of innovation and also the opportunity of gaining acquires of labor market requirements. This increases unemployment problems between graduates around the world for lack of practical experience and also innovation talents.
There is special way that we can eliminate some of the college stigmas and that is experiential learning “more colleges have embraced experiential learning, which refers to activities that let students apply the skills they’ve learned in the classroom in a real-world setting. While these opportunities have typically taken the form of study abroad, co-ops and internships, more colleges are experimenting with immersive approaches that go a step beyond such programs” Schwartz.
Experiential learning that can gain students from the collages can boost their work skills which is a significant way to make real science refer form science fiction “Recent research backs the idea, students who have internships related to their classroom learning or who complete long term projects are more likely to feel engaged with their work upon graduation. And experiential learning is associated with a deeper understanding of course material and the ability to work well with others” Schwartz.
