"Education is simply learning the language of the sheep"
what is your opinion of this statement?
by Education i am referring to the school/college curriculum
Answer:Possibly.
Having looked at the public education system of the United States from three viewpoints--student, parent, and teacher, I would have to concede that too often the quote is true.
However, if you can find a way to learn to read, you become responsible and capable of educating yourself.
Sadly, we are now into the second generation of lowest common denominator education. The teachers are now products of the system and all too often simply too dumb to secure any other job. In addition, for the most part administrators and education politicos are in the business of power, influence, money, and prestige. There are precious few among them who give two hoots about whether Susie can read, and none care if Johnny can think. I'm sure that will hit a nerve, but it's the unvarnished truth, and the US had better pay attention.
Frankly, I think the entire public education system of the US is so f****d up that it can't be fixed...at least not without a revolution. The US will lose its status as the leader of the Free World because the populace is no longer sufficiently educated to maintain the top position.
...I'm so depressed about this.
How Is Education In The United States Different From Education In Other Countries?
How is education in the United States different from education in other countries? Which country's education system do you like best?
Answer:Here, we make a futile and stupid attempt to educate everybody, whether they want an education or not. In other countries, they value education more, because if you don't pursue it, they stop educating you and you have to take a menial job and suffer. Parents don't want that for their children and they push them. Here, when someone doesn't want an education, we force them to stay in school with compulsory education and we give them the "No Child Left Behind" treatment. We keep their sorry butt in school and let them drag down the whole educational system. The parents don't have to take the responsibility to make their kid rise to challenges. As a result, our school systems and teachers are swamped with trying to produce even mediocre results from a population that has no reason to care or to try. Pick a developed country in the world, and its educational system will be better than ours, because here our lawyers have determined that we have to try to save people from themselves.
What Steps Should Government Take To Make Education Cheaper In India To Educate All?
As we have been witnessing daily that day by day education is becoming costlier affair in India and most of the aspirants discontinue their studies for want of money to be charged for higher education. This as I feel, leads to frustration and best students gets involved in some anti-social activities. Government can curb this if some concrete steps are taken in this directions. I would also you to kindly suggest some steps for the better education within the reach of every student.
Answer:This is interesting. There is a yahoo answers for India at the bottom of your screen.
I don't know how India handles education. But they should probably rely on taxes to finance education. They also should make education compulsory.
As for getting involved in "anti-social activities," there's not much one can do about that. The most radical and anti-social people I've encountered have been young college students. It's always the college students who are bold enough to start trouble and smart enough to question authority.

I am doing a career report and I want to be a golf player for the LPGA. What education is training needed to pursue this career? How many years of education, college you could attend and what type of degree do you earn?
Also, what are average salaries?
Thanks so much!!
Answer:Being a "Golf Professional" isn't necessarily the same as being a "Professional Golfer". Golf Pros generally work within the golf industry as instructors, Golf Course Managers/Director's of Golf etc. Professional Golfers play the game to make a living. To become a Golf Pro you need at the least to have a diploma in golf management from a community college. These courses teach everything from course maintenance to club repairs to running local tournaments to managing a golf course. To be a Professional Golfer you need the skill to play the game at it's highest level.

Questions:

Whats there pay ?
What it takes ?
Thank you for your time.
Answer:All you need is to be 21 years old and pass a background investigation. You at least need a High School diploma but since you graduate HS at 18(generally) you should spend those 2 years or so getting an A.S. in Justice Administration from a nearby Community College or better yet get a Bachelors or even a graduate degree so that you can be promoted easier. The average pay throughout the USA is $47,000 but in major cities pay is around $54,000 a year. It takes a lot of patience and good judgment to be a police officer. A lot of people aren't going to like you for the fact that you are a Law Enforcement Officer but don't take it personally.
