Ideologies of Education Practice Reforms

One of the changes that can be implemented is the liberalization of the educational system

Since experience is typically passed from the teacher to the pupil, the educational structure must be liberated. Students must be given the opportunity to develop their educational process by adhering to the predetermined curriculum structure. Following a predetermined curriculum helps to improve students' skills in different dimensions and ensures that students memorize everything they are taught in the classroom. The educational system can be liberated by improving active learning and classwork attendance among students. Schools also have to adopt bureaucratic interdependence as a measure to improve their educational systems. Adoption of the bureaucratic interdependence is vital in ensuring that the learners have a grip on the ideas and knowledge that can help them face the real life challenges in the modern world (Freire, 2010). The school curriculum also has to be designed in such a way that students will be given an opportunity to study those subjects that they are good at (Dianeravitch, 2015). Students will also be given an opportunity to choose careers at the early stages of their educational levels and this will help them choose subjects that relate to their career choices. In so doing, this helps in ensuring that the students have a clear picture of their career choice as they move from one educational level to the other.

Role as a Potential Educator

As a potential educator, there are various measures that I can put in place to ensure that the above reforms are implemented and are applicable. One of the measures is engaging the stakeholders from the educational systems and reforms and explaining to them the benefits that will come along with the educational reforms. In so doing, I will help in ensuring that I bring to the attention of the stakeholders the need for reforms. I will also be on the frontline in explaining to the students about my reforms and how they can be of help to them. Another measure that can be put in place in ensuring that the reforms are implemented is advocating for the replacement of the current curriculum. The current curriculum, in most countries across the globe, is job-oriented. I will push for the implementation of a curriculum that helps in the enhancement of an individual’s skills and talents rather than pushing the students to a career path that is not of his interest or liking.

Reforms in a Social Context

The community has always been on the frontline in advocating for education for both the male and female gender. The society’s push for education will serve as a stepping stone for my quest for the educational support. I will look for educational elites from the society who will help me in the implementation of my curriculum restructuring processes as well as educational reforms. One year ago, I was selected by the regional educational board to help in raising awareness in my community on the essence of education. Using this position, I will ensure that I push for reforms in the educational systems that are currently embraced by the schools within the community. I will mobilize the teachers to join hand with me in ensuring that the restructuring process of the curriculum is a reality. A society that supports education will always be ready to accept educational reforms.
