I have to work hard every single day to maintain my path to success. I’ve also learned ways to manage my time and I learned to be more independent, not to rely on others and go with my first instinct, instead of others. One of the valuable things to me that I’ve learned this semester is not to worry too much about the future and take things slow and calm as they come. Beginning today, I already have an idea of what goals and what I would like to accomplish next year. One of my goals is to maintain good grades, which means I will be studying more often and putting even more effort into my school work next year.
Kids think that they can just save the money they would spend on college and start working to make more. They think they will earn more in the long run, but students with a degree make more money than they kids working. College will only help us students for our future by preparing us to manage time and get our work done. College will teach students how to do the work right the first time with no re-dues or make-ups. In the workforce you have one shot to do it right and keep producing more for your company.
The unemployment rate was at about 9.5 percent to 9.7 percent in the beginning of 2010 up until December and then it started to slightly decline. It got down to 8.8 percent but then rose over 9 percent again by May of 2011 and has stayed around that percentage. This may be a sign that jobs are being created and hopefully the unemployment rate will experience another decrease during 2011. The unemployment rates by age showed that the 16-19 age group is having the worst time with unemployment. The unemployment rates for 16-19 year olds has stayed pretty steadily around 25 percent since the beginning of 2010 until the present and has never been below 24.5 percent.
Students who need extra intellectual attention, whether it addresses their difficulties or their talents, shouldn't have to wait for summer to receive it; that would be "no good." YRS allows students' special needs to be addressed throughout the entire year, rather than after it. The chance for acceleration, extended learning, or enrichment shouldn't have to wait nine months; giving talented students the chance to stretch their minds year-round is a wonderful opportunity. On the other end of the spectrum, students who are lacking in subjects, need academic tutoring, or need to "catch up" can receive assistance as a supplement to their regular education during year-round school. Many year-round schools provide enrichment or
The new vocationalism scheme was introduced around 1979. The students would attend college for one or two days a week to study for vocational qualifications that were not available at school. Most schools used this to re-engage disaffected young people. Although schemes have helped working class students it has also helped middle class and so it has not helped reduce social inequality but instead give students more choice over there education. Vocational education has helped some students and provided people with more qualifications so they have a better chance of getting a job but they have not reduced social inequality.
Community College Many students struggle to choose between attending a community college and a university upon completion of a high school. Now a day’s a large number of high school graduates attend community college for a variety of reasons. In fact students search for the college which is best for their career goal and improves quality of life. Community colleges are the fastest growing institutions for high school graduates. Students choose to got community college because they benefit from the reduced tuition, they have the ability to transfer to a university, and they obtain a training provide for a future career.
The employees require labor to work more than 15-30 hours per week. Etzioni says, “There is just no way such amounts of work will not interfere with school work, especially homework”. I might think that his judgment is too ectreme. Everyone is different. If the students know how to manage their time efficiently, the work would not be a problem.
Another group of students who benefit from choosing the two-year path is those who want to pursue a vocational or technical education. Practically all careers that will provide meaningful work both financially and psychologically require more education than a high school diploma. If a studentâs financial situation requires working while going to school, a community college will offer more flexibility when scheduling courses. Students who truly are unsure about attending college can benefit by experimenting with higher education at the community college level. Still other students plan eventual transfer to a four-year college but may not be financially,
Two-years are better than four Is a four-year “college experience – a rite of passage” as Perlstein wrote? Or is Addison correct in her belief that a two-year college is a “priceless springboard for students who want to learn?” While attending a two-year college the experience has shown me that I can learn quickly and can advance my education with the knowledge learned at a two-year college. Too many students seem to quit a four-year school, in debt and with a lower chance of obtaining adequate employment. Many of these students may have felt they were wasting their time in a four-year program. In contrast, going to a two-year college before a four-year university maybe a wiser choice, educationally and financially.
Community Colleges After high school students attend college to further their education. The major step challenges you to choose between a university and community college. According to the College Board, four out of ten graduating high school students start their college careers at a community college. Over one thousand six hundred community colleges serve eleven million students. (Advantages on Fastweb, 2012) I believe community colleges create easier ways to extend your education.
