How can we ensure that young people understand the value of Education?


"Education is a progressive discovery of our ignorance (Will Durant (1885-1981) U.S. author and historian, lhup.edu)." Human existence without education is just like barren land (eduproblem, blogspot). "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world (Nelson Mandela, google quote)." "Education is what remains when we have forgotten all that we have been taught (George Savile, Marquis of Halifax English statesman and author, lhup.edu)." This is an ineradicable truth but unfortunately students of today are not able to avow the fame of education."Education is the great engine of personal development (Nelson Mandela, google quote)." Education is not restricted to the schools only. Education starts from the mother's lap. Childhood is the right time to inculcate the trait of kindness. Parents and family implant good manners and make responsible citizens out of their children. "Few things make the life of a parent more rewarding and sweet as SUCCESSFUL CHILDREN (Nelson Mandela, google quote)." Home is called first school of the children, but the formal education starts from the school (eduproblem, blogspot). A good education provides students with everything they need to excel their careers and in life.
"Childhood, after all, is the first precious coin that poverty steals from a child (Anthony Horowitz, google quotes)". In Asia, children can be easily found in different places doing labor jobs instead of getting education and raising their careers. Not everyone abstain from getting educated. Majority of young people in our country do not have such reforms to afford education, still many of them are interested to get knowledge and to fill up the cavities of desires which they have hidden deep inside them. To defeat the twilight of poverty and to get a glance of deluxe and comfortable life poor families have to labor no matter what. Children get dropped out of school to to start labor jobs to collect additional income for sustenance, grow up to be unskilled workers and also unable to provide for their children's education (sadaataid). Even if some parents are sending their descendants to schools still they have no benefit to it because neither the teachers due to shortage of professionalism nor the parents due to their ignorance are able to guide children for their empirical and as well as theoretical life (studysols). "Education … has produced a vast population able to read but unable to distinguish what is worth reading (G. M. Trevelyan British historian,lhup.edu)."



Country Ranking (out of 177 countries)
2005 2006 2007
Iran 99 96 94
Sri Lanka 93 93 99
Maldives 96 98 100
India 127 126 128
Pakistan 135 134 136


Pakistan was at the highest illiteracy rate as compared to India, Iran, Sri Lanka and Maldives from 2005-2007. Officially it is reported that half of Pakistan's population is illiterate. With such family backgrounds, inflation, poverty and child labor this rate is going to increase in coming years. Majority of the people forming the top controlling tier is almost unaware of technical mindsets and the new technologies that are being rapidly recognized and launched. Thus, this problem is causing our country to adopt the new technologies at a snail's speed (africaw).
“Young people are the inheritors of a changing world – its economic distributions, social positions, cultural identities and historical narratives. They need not be passive recipients of these things; with appropriate support and political will young people can be an active, positive force for development, locally, nationally and internationally (Amartya Sen, Peace and Democratic Society,179, jstor)”.
The educational system of Pakistan is among-st the least-developed in the world. The system is based on British colonial education system. In 1974 government of Pakistan passed an agenda to give free education to everyone but unfortunately government was unable to implement it. The National Assembly on Tuesday 2012 passed the Right to free and Compulsory Education Bill to ensure free and compulsory education to all children of age five to sixteen years as represented in the Article 25-A of the Constitution (dawn.com).
"The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling but rising every time we fall (Nelson Mandela, google quote)." India was also among-st the least-developed countries but now to eradicate it's name from the top illiterate countries list, India has put its Literacy Mission high on agenda with the government initiating a number of measures. Including the adoption of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education to achieve higher literacy rate in the country. The Human Resource Development Ministry has set a target of achieving 80% literacy for women by the end of the 11th Five Year Plan (newsite/erelease). “SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS Report of the Committee of Inquiry into the Education of Handicapped Children and Young People (cursos, tecmilenio, Mrs. H M Warnock, May 1976)”.
To improve literacy rates Government needs to advance the system of educational technology. Increasing the budget on educational technology can be a good start. The first priority should be researching the effectiveness of schools that the government can find out if the teaching methods should be revised. Government needs to provide financial support to the schools in villages. Throughout research is needed before advancing further into the plan and after ample information is gathered, the Department of Education can develop a nationwide plan to enhance the education system (teach-nology). The internet can also be used as a great tool to promote learning since it has such a wide range and software programs can be created especially for the goal of making academic lessons easier. (teach-nology). The children also need to be seen and treated as potential chattels and engaged in processes of dialogue and decision-making (Amartya Sen, Peace and Democratic Society, 180, jstor).

A quote ends before the parentheses -- "You lose" (Calvin Coolidge, at a dinner).

Yes, lots of misspellings, etc., some because of copy/paste and formatting problems. Google, for instance, should be capitalized.

"Children drop out of school to start labor jobs" -- what's a labor job? a job doing hard labor -- please describe with several examples.
