Changing the educational paradigm

Do you agree with the changes in the educational paradigm that Ken Robinson suggests? Do you think it is possible to make changes to the current system of education in your country? What do you think you would be able to do as an individual teacher in any process of changing the current educational paradigm?  Write up your reflections in your blog.


I think, we cannot change our education system. Actually, we changed it without making pilot scheme and I do not know it will fail or not. We changed our education system 4+4+4 but there are many problems such as students’ ages, fundamental problems, lacking of activities books and technological devices problems etc.  I think, none thought these type of problems deeply.  Actually, firstly, I want to change our curriculum. There should be exams OK. However, if there are exams, students should be educated in schools not dersanes. There should be instructive, informative activities, materials. Children should like them. They should want to participate the lesson.  Teachers, principals should think students’ needs individually. Children are our future. After a while, they start to think why children did not learn why they failed because you did not teach efficiently. You did not ask yourself what is missing in your theories materials or feedback. Teachers and principles should enable relax and flexible learning environment. In class, there are 40 students. Teachers want to teach but how they can manage 40 students in class. There are 40 different individuals. Students want to learn but there is not suitable environment. Actually, interested in many different individual needs and preparing activities for every single student are not easy in these classes. I think, being teacher is the most difficult job in the earth. More power to your elbow!!!

  1. We don't need to change our education system we have to change it we really have to... This is not about how many years you will go to school it is all about our ideas about educational system we are not raising robots. I totally agree with you students need to love that system they need to love learning and understand that being failure is not because of the students all the time....
