Poverty and the Education Systems
People are said to be "living in poverty" when they do not have enough of what it takes to fulfill the basic human needs. Education is the best means of getting out of poverty. Are there people too poor to enjoy the benefits of the education system? Poverty affects education throughout the world in different ways. In my teaching assignment, I will be teaching about the multiple aspects of poverty as it relates to the educational system. In my initial first day, I will be discussing what poverty is and giving the definition as a broad overview of the topic. In my second day, I will be teaching about the factors of poverty. We will be discussing things like disease, apathy, dependence, dishonesty and ignorance. By the third day, we will be discussing poverty around the world and how poverty is defined differently and has different aspects in countries around the world. By the fourth day we will be discussing poverty in the school system and what that means in different areas of the world, as well as the ramifications of poverty with the education in a school system. Finally, we will be discussing how we can help with the problems associated with poverty in the educational system around the world.
People should care about this topic because it has such a major impact on the world. The educational system is meant to help people better themselves. Typically, the more educated a person is, the more opportunity for success that person has. Without education, the world is left with illiterate and unqualified people for jobs other than menial manual labor. People and countries that cannot keep pace with the educational systems of other countries will be left behind and likely have to deal with ongoing poverty with no means of changing the outcome of their lives. By understanding what poverty is, the factors involved with poverty, how poverty is defined around the world and how it affects the educational system, and finally, how we can help with the problems associated with poverty, we can actually make a difference in the world, and with the people affected by poverty. By carefully studying the causes, we will be better positioned to make changes that will positively affect the outcome and opportunity for millions and millions of people living in poverty, looking for a way out. Through strategic thinking, students will be able to develop a strategy to achieve their vision for the future of education systems in countries that live in poverty. Taking action today to fix these problems, will lead to a better future and a more educated society.
