Expired Education

What is expired education?

To begin with, it is out-dated curriculum and methodology of teaching in academic institutions. It is a type of education that is deficient of modern day textbooks and technology. Expired education starts from the citadel of learning. If you want to fix it, fix the educational system. Obviously, this is true because leaders of nations whether politicians, scientists etc passed through their academic institutions. One contributory factor to leadership ineffectiveness is attributed to failure in their educational system. They were not able to acquire trainings that could be used to advance the destiny of their country. In other to move forward, the mantra of change must begin with academic institutions and students. Changing the educational system, updating the curriculum, relevance of the textbooks to modern day challenges and implementing appropriate technology are the essentials that matter. Students can be taught how to operate such advanced educational technologies. For instance, someone studying engineering should be able to manufacture while another studying computer be able to  produce a computer. Laxity and malpractices are the hallmark of expired education. I recommend students should be molded, helped to realize their dreams and become more productive. In order to put up a holistic education, use comparative education.  Check out what your counterparts are doing, think what they are thinking and compare it with the knowledge they acquired.
