Education

UNESCO
We will delve into the purposes of education. Almost everything that takes place in schools is a social construct and/or an historical legacy designed to serve a purpose or purposes. Is the primary purpose of education to develop individuals and if so, in what ways? Is education primarily a state function designed to grow the economy and/or prepare citizens? Prepare them for what roles? Is the purpose of education to transform society or to preserve the status quo?

​How can we develop helpful standardized testing? What steps can educators and policymakers around the world take to improve education for everyone? How can we ensure that every child has access to education?
