...productivity... and these in turn rely on the education of our people. – Julia Gillard. The increase of low-income, low-skilled youth in the labor market, particularly in developing countries, is a major concern internationally. In some regions of the world, young people are nearly three times as likely as adults to be unemployed. They are also more likely to work in the informal labor market than adults, in low quality jobs that offer limited socio-economic security, training opportunities, and working conditions. This enormous unlocked potential represents a substantial loss of opportunity for both individuals and society. With increasing emphasis being given to work- and skills-based solutions to economic competition and poverty in the developing world, comes a renewed focus on technical and vocational education and training (TVET) as a means to expand opportunities for marginalized youth (Tripney, et. al., 2013). Enhancing the quality of basic education in the Philippines is urgent and critical. In line with this, one of the discussions of DepEd which incurred on October 2010 is to enhance the basic education program of the country in a way that is least disruptive to the current curriculum, most affordable to government and families, and aligned with international practice through the K-12 policy. The poor quality of basic education is reflected in the low achievement scores of Filipino students. Many students who finish basic education do not possess sufficient mastery of basic...

The Current Situation of Formal Education in the Philippines 0. Introduction Compared with other countries, the literacy rate in the Philippines is quite high . Moreover enrolment rate is 99. 9% in primary level and 77. 8% in secondary level, which is higher than Singapore and the highest in ASEAN countries (Figure 0-1). However while statistics on educational attainment may be high, the economic situation in the Philippines is still not so good. The Philippines has succeeded in expanding its education in quantit ative terms, but now they have to think about “Quality of education”.

...Educational return on Investment Many high school graduates as well as adults in the workforce today have many decisions to make about the need to continue their education. Since the unemployment rate for both educated as well as uneducated personnel has realized little decline, students struggle to find a balance between the value of continuing education and the cost associated with it. There are two conflicting arguments concerning educational return on investment; both sides over the presence or absence of a bachelor’s degree sides offer valid claims. It can be argued that a person’s success is not determined by merely obtaining a bachelor’s degree. A person will have to determine the definition of success as it relates to them. Some of the attributes that contribute to success are personal such as drive, determination, and creativity. There are many successful entrepreneurs who did not have a bachelor’s degree. Andrew Carnegie, famous industrialist and philanthropist, known for the Carnegie Institute of Technology and building 300 public libraries was a high school dropout. Coco Chanel, founder of the brand Chanel and Chanel No. 5 perfume does not have a college degree. Andrew Jackson became President of the United States at age 35 without a formal education. Dave Thomas, billionaire founder of Wendy’s dropped out of high school at age 15 (Toren, 2011). This proves that to attain recognition and be successful, we do not have to possess a bachelor’s degree. Also...

...Veterans Affairs, filled out the necessary paper work and my approval was granted. I said to myself, “This Tour Is OVER!!!” I had already started packing when suddenly I received an unsuspected notification that my wife of 15 years was medevac’d to Savannah, GA, with severe chest pain. At that very moment, my mind was in a state of emergency. I had to get home. Education was far from my mind, and prayer was in order. I realized this was going to be a long flight home. Arriving and running through the Dubai Airport as I have done many times before was a nightmare because it was Ramadan and there were long exiting passport lines. Still, I had to remain calm so that I could get to my seat without feeling challenged by the diverse cultures surrounding me. Finally in my seat, I made a phone call to my oldest daughter to see how my wife was doing and to speak to the doctor or nurse if they were available, but they were still in surgery. This flight was 16 hours long and I realized that worrying would do no one good so I eased my mind; and begin to think what I wanted to study in school. I realized that back in the state’s education would be the key to all successes therefore; if I was going to make a living without bullets flying over my head, then becoming literate in a choice of study would have to become a solid new mission and personal quest. The plane landed at my final destination and I quickly moved through the terminals to...

...Education: The Value of A College Education Name College Name Class Section Professor Date Why Is Important Value Of College Education? Many people have their own views on the value of a college education it is what many people now a day need for a better life. Education plays a major rule on how your life will be. Many believe that the education you receive will benefit you in many ways. I would have to agree with them. Personally I believe education determines the life you will have. Education allows you to be financially stable, have a better life style, an allow you to be a role model to many. First of all having an education allows you to be financially stable. Many people do not have education which causes the problems. For example, many families will struggle with many which lead to many problems. Furthermore, being financially stable gives you an advantage in this economy. It is known that being in financially stable home makes a family less likely to divorce. For the most part an average of 70% of the families are not financially stable, many of this have had an education. Meanwhile some of those who have an education may continue to struggle. For instance, many times they may not be able to find a job. When it comes down to it education benefits many people. In closing, being financially stable allows you to be stress free.

... return to school to get a degree. She attended the University of Phoenix where she received her bachelor’s degree. She knew it was going to be hard and challenging but she did not let that make me lose sight of why she was coming back to school in the first place. She attended previous colleges such as King’s College for their Medical Office Assistance program and ECPI College of Technology for their Network Administration Office Technology program. But even after completing those programs she felt it was not enough, she still felt just at entry level. Her level of professional competences such as problem solving, written and oral communication skills, research and collaboration were not strong. She believed that her previous education had not prepared me for what she wanted to do in life which is to become a human resources manager. Her first goal as a student at the University of Phoenix was to become a lifelong learner by keeping my knowledge adequately up to part with all the changes in her career field or goal.

...Academic Integrity in a cultural context What is Academic Integrity in a cultural context? According to the Oxford School Dictionary & Thesaurus Academic means something to do with education or studying, especially at a school or college or university. Integrity means telling something that is true. Cultural means the custom and traditions of a people. Context means the background to an event that helps to explain it. So we can deduce from these definitions that academic integrity in a cultural context refers to academic honesty as against the background of the customs and tradition of people in an academic world. Academic Integrity in Nigeria With three major ethnic group and over 150 sub ethnic group, I daresay Nigeria is a very rich country in terms of culture and diverse in terms of customs and traditions. From time immemorial information has been passed down from generations to generations orally. Words and proverbs were actually not attributed to a singular person but to an ethnic group, for instance, the Yoruba adage, the Igbo adage, the Hausa adage, the Bini adage and so on. As we advance over the years, we started attributing word or group of words as quotes to an individual and also books were written by individuals. It was in the bid to stop mass reproduction of books that copyright came into been. During my research on this topic, I found out that most of the research works and journals on academic integrity in Nigeria only focus on cheating, malpractice...

...The Concern of College Dropout rates in The United States RES/351 October 31, 2013 Dr. Albert Smothers The Concern of College Dropout rates in The United States The United States is known for spending a great deal of funds on higher education. However in recent years statistics have revealed a high rate of college students fail to obtain their bachelor’s degrees. Currently 42% of college enrolled students fail to complete their education for bachelor’s degrees. Both educators and economists see this as an issue that can impact the country economically and the overall quality of life (Dunn, W. 2013). Purpose of the Research The purpose of our organizations study is to determine the correlation between a student’s level of preparation for higher education and the national dropout rate of colleges in the United States. Specifically, this study will focus on students that attended four year universities with intentions of obtaining their bachelor’s degree, however, they ended up leaving school without this degree. Many people pursue college degrees to obtain specific disciplines and higher education in order to become successful and contributing members of society. However, many of these students are exposed for the first time to environments or challenges that college may present with no preparation or ability to adapt and complete their degree programs. Dropping out of college could potentially impact ones future income earnings and quality of life (Dunn, W. 2013). The...

...(International Monetary Fund, 2007). According to a 2011 Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OEDC) report, income inequality has widen over the two decades with the rich experiencing a faster income growth than the poor. Although globalization may boost economic development, it also poses a threat in causing an increase in income disparity which can be solved by improving access to education and promoting skills development. Reform to better access to education are likely to have a positive effect on income inequality. It allows the lower income workers and their children to have an access to education. Moreover, individual with a better and higher education is more likely to secure a good job with high income. A research by Alderson and Nielson (as cited in Wells, n.d., p.5) shows that an individual who receives higher education is better paid than those with only primary or no education at all. Therefore, increasing education access could improve income mobility and thus reduce income disparity. However, this solution does not guarantee equal access to education. In Singapore, it seems that the local universities are accepting more foreign students. This is evidence from the information gathered by a NUS Professor, Dr. Loy Hui Chieh, stating the percentage of foreign undergraduate intake from year 1999 to 2006 has rise above 20 per cent (as cited in Lur, 2011, para. 13). The intake of foreign students is upsetting the local students as they not only need to...

...Benjamin Franklin, one of America's founding fathers, once said "The only thing more expensive than education is ignorance." In America today one of the most valuable possessions a person can have is a college degree. On the contrary, a degree is simply a building block in life. College is a tool and education does not stop with a degree. Franklin also said, "Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning." I disagree with Megan McAndle's "Is College a Lousy Investment?" because I believe a person that has a college education with a degree has many more opportunities and advantages than a person without. America's workforce is one of the most powerful and competitive in the world and an education is essential. A credential represents the education received, but are the educated really educated? No. The educated are not educated until they learn to apply the education. A credential may look good on paper and look good at a job interview but if you cannot apply what you have learned, then yes, a credential is a zero-sum game. A wise man once said, "Never confuse motion with action." Anyone can go through the motions to acquire a degree, but the people who apply themselves best and have that drive within that makes them sacrifice anything to reach their goals will be the successful ones that obtain and retain jobs after college. Studies show that more than half of all recent graduates are unemployed or in jobs that...
