Anna Araqelyan"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>What is the role of education in a person&#8217;s life, which people are considered<br>educated and why is it so necessary to get an education? These are questions that<br>concern each of us. Most people know that it is necessary:<br><strong>\u278a<\/strong> Get an education, but few know why. Education is one of the most important<br>spheres of social life, on the functioning of which it depends<br><strong>\u278a<\/strong> Mental, cultural and moral condition of the country, education is currently<br>the sector with the most beneficiaries. And thanks to that education<br>As a result of the received knowledge, discoveries are born, which<br><strong>\u278a<\/strong> Improve the lives of all of us. And with us, around us, there are<br>undiscovered Einsteins and Newtons living together, and we really have to<br>admit that especially now, in the modern world of man<br><strong>\u278a<\/strong> For the role of education is very big, which unfortunately few people<br>understand, especially when many other modern fields are developing in<br>parallel, which are more<br><strong>\u278a<\/strong> Are profitable, and therefore the more educated are capable of better quality<br>work and therefore will earn more than others.<br>Chinese businessman Jack Mann, one of the 100 most influential people, said:<br>&#8220;If we don&#8217;t change the way and the principles of education, then we will have a<br>problem, we can&#8217;t teach our children to compete with machines, they are smarter&#8221;,<br>but at the same time we must not forget that the creators of these machines are<br>people and one cannot disagree with Mai&#8217;s idea with the fact that we should invest<br>heavily in children from an early age, from kindergarten, school, and we should<br>teach children to be creative, that is, to be what machines cannot be and to do what<br>they cannot do, and we must instill in them other values, let&#8217;s teach critical<br>thinking, team work, care for people, environment, and certainly we can&#8217;t transfer<br>it with knowledge alone, and unlike machines, we humans have hearts, senses,<br>feelings, not chips.<br>And since ancient times, people have known that the most important thing is<br>school and education. And we have to agree that lately the school prepares a<br>different world of life, which most of the time does not even exist and, as a student,<br>speaking of the current education in Armenia about quality and education in<br>general, I cannot but mention that it is in a terrible state. And until now, this                                                               implemented changes have not had any impact on quality improvement in action.<br>Especially the post-Covid-19 changes unfortunately, they have not improved<br>either: the general learning process and everything has remained unchanged, again<br>children study unconsciously, under the pressure of their parents, for high grades,<br>students for the diploma, student environment, memories, not the field.<br>In order to become qualified and the best specialist, to contribute to the<br>development of the country, but what is done by the educators, they do nothing to<br>cooperate with the student, to make the curriculum more interesting, modern, so<br>that the student loves both the subject and subject: Few are given the honor of<br>being a teacher in general, because many become educators, having no other<br>choice, as a result, both the child and the &#8220;teacher&#8221; could not become the specialist<br>he dreamed of, because he dreamed of working in another field, and therefore, as a<br>result, we have the following picture.<br>And yes, our current education system can be said doesn\u2019t meet the requirements<br>of the current times, there are very few schools and very few teachers who can<br>regularly make the school process informal and that is the main reason that the<br>majority of young people prefer informal education, I myself recently mentioned<br>during my interview that I currently prefer non-formal education, because I learn<br>not only hard but also soft skills and knowledge, I have experience that is more<br>necessary for my future and work.<br>And unfortunately I didn&#8217;t find these through formal education, otherwise I<br>wouldn&#8217;t have invested extra time in volunteering, seminars and informal education<br>in general, and what we get through informal education we can&#8217;t find elsewhere,<br>but at the same time I understand my and the importance of higher education in the<br>life of the rest, but as a result, thanks to informal education, we self-educate,<br>develop, develop our personal growth, which will help us in the future more than<br>the lesson assigned by the teacher of that day, which has nothing to do with our<br>professional orientation. As a result, we have the following picture: currently there<br>are 55 universities in Armenia, 44 of which are located only in Yerevan, and many<br>young people are engaged in informal education in their region, they receive more<br>than what is given in schools, they stand out earlier and as a result, they work even<br>from their own homes and build their future, forgetting about higher education,<br>that&#8217;s why we have so few applicants now.<br>And those same young people save time, money and much more resources,<br>because as a result, they would not have received by entering the university the<br>knowledge and skills they need, whereas nowadays, thanks to online, free courses<br>and courses, you can get the knowledge they should have acquired in four years faster,                                                            and I must dare say that the mistake is on both sides; we are our young<br>people do not value education, even higher education, and universities do not<br>provide the relevant knowledge and experience so that applicants have the desire to<br>continue their education.<br>To realize that apart from the university, that knowledge, experience will not be<br>found anywhere.<br>And I can single out several reasons, according to which we currently have such a<br>low number of applicants, first I must single out that the university was associated<br>with a diploma, and the diploma was associated with a job, then I must mention<br>that it has become very easy to enter universities abroad , you can find knowledge<br>for free on the Internet, in many universities the professors still do not correspond<br>to the modern world and teaching the weather is very weak, although there are a<br>few exceptions and these problems are many, and in addition, among young<br>people, the university has already been devalued and many stereotypes have arisen,<br>which have an impact, because parallel to them, the correctness of the latter is<br>proved by the examples of those who live next to us.<br>And in the end, each of us should make education important in our lives, because if<br>we don&#8217;t have a good education, a good education system, we can&#8217;t have a good<br>country, and thanks to that education we have such a value system to realize our<br>country<br>The importance in our life and how much we will contribute to the betterment of<br>our future and our country, or by chance they say do not fight with hands, do not<br>educate with hands, and every investment made by us for our future is an<br>investment for the country, because education is the most powerful weapon, which<br>we can use to change the world and therefore ourselves and our country.<br>So we can safely say that without education it is impossible to live in the modern<br>world, although many may disagree, but nothing can replace properly delivered<br>education, even informal education, unfortunately, such a system does not work at<br>present in Armenia, but everything depends on us, if we have a high level of<br>consciousness and realize that we are the generation whose now everything is<br>concentrated in our hands and we will use the resources we have and provided to<br>us, then, be sure, we will have it the system that many countries would dream of,<br>everything depends only on us and our wishes. And if we want to change in our<br>country? The form and quality of education, then let&#8217;s first start with ourselves,<br>change ourselves, then our attitude towards the environment, do our work with                                                                         love and fill ourselves with faith in the future and that same let us also fill others<br>with faith. It all starts with us\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the role of education in a person&#8217;s life, which people are considerededucated and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3894,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","spay_email":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1,20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3880","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-1","category-20"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.0.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Problems of Higher Education in RA.
