Discuss Education with Andie Marcle

Thanks for your listening! Please feel free to leave your comments and/or opinions to [e-mail] Synopsis of Today's Topic: What is the biggest risk when improving education system? Financial barrier or our avarice for talents and our indifference to unequal opportunities? The main difference between people and things is that things are born the way they are, but people can be changed all the time. Today, talent becomes a label this world gives to it, and it is just another price tag. If we find a person only because he has been discovered as a talent, we are just trading, and there is no gratitude and responsibility. Therefore, speaking of education, we always idealize that education is the worthiest investment, but the truth is that the talents we see today are the survivors (not beneficiaries) of the current education system and the excellence we value today has becomes a filter (not a reference) that we never think of the difference between nothing and an opportunity. The best investment we think is only to pay for talents rather than do for them before they are called talents. The biggest risk of education reform is our greedy for the talents, that we treat them as commodities. That’s why sometimes change should start from us.
