Future of education

While thinking about the future, I will concentrate on the education system. In 20 years, I would like for the education system to be changed to be more suited for that generation. The system that we are using currently is extremely outdated. Children in this day and age are changing rapidly and it is partly due to the environment that we live in. That is why the system must be changed at least every decade or so to be suited for that generation so they could reach their maximum potential.

Not only the achievements in various sciences are very important but psychological aspects as well. In the year 2040, there should be more attention drawn to learning about getting to know your emotions as well as other people’s emotions. As we all know, humans are social “animals” and I fear that because of rapidly evolving technologies and social media, people, especially young children, will start to lose the aspect of empathy toward themselves and others. So, to make the future better, there should be more attention drawn to the education system so that it would be relevant and effective for that generation.
