Passion Class

hould a student in the Passion class be asked to critique Education? Should a student in a passion class be asked to look into themselves?

When the Passion class begins at Chabot, students taking the class should definitely be asked to look into themselves. By doing so, the student can pinpoint what needs change in their lives. Students will be able to move on to the next page of their lives by fixing or changing something. A person cannot get anywhere without changing their everyday life. Change is good and change is always going to happen whether or not we like it. It's up to the person what they choose to do when a situation comes up. They either adapt to the change or let the change control them. Some students or people in general forget that we are all humans and all have practically the same capabilities. We just don't choose to do certain things, like explore. Exploring into your own life can sometimes be tough because of all events that occurred. For others it may be easy because of all the victories. Then again, it's up to the person to choose how they see their life: victorious or not.

Students in the Passion class should be asked to critique education, but not right away. Students should explore their lives before being asked that question.There are many reasons why it's important to ask that question.

First of all, asking the students to critique education will give the student to really think about what they want when it comes to their education. Asking that question will have students think deeply about the educational system's flaws and benefits. They will get to share their thoughts and feelings about having and education. Students have different ideas and values regarding education.

Secondly, not only will the students get to share their perspective on education, teachers will get to hear it. Students tend to think that teachers don't care about their students. Students think that teachers are just their to work and get paid. Maybe some teachers are like that, but some teachers really want to know what's on the mind and what's preventing their students from learning with full potential. Teachers usually don't have time to ask these kinds of questions because they only have limited time with the students. Teachers must follow the school's guidelines or else they'll have to go hunting for a new teaching position. They are hired to teach a specific subject and for that subject only.

Asking students to critique education can change so many lives in the future generations of education. Asking this question can provide the answers to the problems of education in our country.
