Changing the educational paradigm


            Many American critics believe that the major problem with public education today is a lack of focus on results. Students aren’t expected to meet high standards, the argument goes, and the process of education takes precedence over analyzing education results in policy-making circles. I also agree that there many problems in public education, it restricts students to be educated in real meaning. Sir Ken Robinson is an internationally recognized leader in the development of creativity and innovation. His success changes in the educational paradigm. I agree with the changes in the educational paradigm that Ken Robinson suggests. Also, I think that it is possible to make changes to the current system of education in my country. I recognized that there are many organizations to do it in turkey, For example, some places which is like Açev, Public Education Centers have been opened in last ten years to make people conscious about changes in education of Turkey. These new things all show that Turkey is open for changes in education. I thing that I will help for changes in current education paradigm. I definitely support constructivism in education but the education system in the world is generally far from constructivism. Teachers have active role everywhere. However, I want students to be active. If a can be a teacher, I will firstly work to support changes in education paradigm according to the way of constructivism.
