Conventional schooling: problems and alternatives

Краткая выдержка из текста работы (Аннотация)

For every family the future of their kids is the most important question. Parents are ready to spend an enormous sum of money for the education of their children.

Choosing a school is of an exceptional importance. Because our decision will influence the march of events and will be a turning-point in the lives of our kids. That's why we have to choose the school where we would like our children to study and to what sphere of life we want to dedicate their lives very carefully. But what are the criterion for the good school? How not to mistake while choosing one? Schools have for many years set out their purposes, often in clear and helpful statements of aims and objectives.

Schools mission is to promote intellectual growth in students through a meaningful education. However, the possibility of schools to reach the set up targets depends on the approach they take to fulfill educational goals and reach high academic standards.

The reality nowadays shows that parents often give their preference to private schools, choosing the name of the school but not its teaching methods.

Conventional schooling presupposes traditional forms of educating students through a teacher-centered approach, relying on lecturing as a way of transmitting information and test examination system as a way of knowledge control. This type of schooling exists in Russia and Belarus.
