1.why do critics of education of today say that discipline in school is too lax? The aim of discipline is to set limits restricting certain behaviors or attitudes that are seen harmful or against school policies, educational norms, school traditions, etc. This discipline will help a student develop his sense of responsibility and guide them to learn and care for the people around them and the world. However, critics of education today say that discipline in school is too lax because they feel that students nowadays are given more freedom than students from earlier years had. This freedom is not in itself wrong, what it forgot to foresee are the students' tendency to abuse such freedom and develop disruptive behaviors that would neither benefit the school and the community he is living in knowing that they could get away with whatever they do without facing the consequences of their action because they have the same laws that took away the school's tools that they used to have to deal with the students' disruptive behavior in school to back them up. With their hands bound, educators nowadays are often left confused as to how they should handle a situation where discipline should be imposed without landing a lawsuit or trending on social media as a violator of the rights of a child. 2. Why should schools of today return to basic and fundamentals? Schools of today should return to the basic and fundamental in order to be able to break down complex situations into simpler pieces, get a clearer view and understand how complex situations were generated and in the process, learn an approach school administrators and educators use to handle problem situations and become effective teachers inside the classroom. 3. Why do students of today complain that schools and colleges do not adequately prepare them for the world of work? Students feel that schools and colleges do not adequately prepare them for the world of work because of the following reasons: first, they feel that the lessons they learn inside the classroom are not enough or lack what they actually need to know in order to become competent workers, some students also feel that educators give more attention to students who excel in class and doesn't mind those who have hard times catching up with new lessons. They also feel that they are not exposed enough to actual activities that would give them the idea of how to do their job in the future 1. Why did sense realists insist that things should be studied before words? Sense realism was based on the fundamental belief that knowledge comes primarily through the senses and education was to be founded on a training in sense-perception and to be directed toward a new type of subject matter. Sense realists thus ensist that "things should be studied before words" because they believe that an individual should first acquire the idea rather than the form and understand the object before the word, or the word through the object. 2. What is "rote learning"? Why was it discouraged by sense realists? Rote learning is like a mechanical or unthinking routine or repetition of process in order to memorize certain ideas. This learning process is against the principles that sense realists believe in, whose general theory of education is based upon rationality, that the mind is geared and functioning while learning by using the common sense through experimentations, observation and other scientific processes because, in this way, an individual is able to discover reality on his own and learn new knowledge that would stay more than what "rote learned" ideas would do.

An Introduction to Philosophy of Education By R. Barrow and R. Woods2007 •
Too little, too late? The redesign of the school curriculum this fall is all dazzle, and no real content. Yes, it's nice to be able to show parents their children are enjoying themselves with new activities, but the substance inevitably still falls short of a true education. So many in the past few generations have been failed by schooling. Historically there was vigorous attention to teaching the basics. The instruction of language has been modernized and changed so much, it's a wonder anyone can express a complex thought either verbally or written. The value of a proper understanding in the rules of a language should come before anything else. Learning the rules of grammar, then practice in recognizing mistakes in those rules, are the basis of a complete classical education. Currently we have the 'common core' education curriculum across America and as well ensconced here in Canada, a system that tends to dumb down the students. But you will say the schools have to be this way since it's the best way we have to teach the children. A system which has failed at least the last two, and perhaps even five generations. Now the current education system is based on the Prussian Education System, which was designed to instill absolute obedience and uniformity in the pupils under the guise of education. It also forces all students to learn the same way, by being lectured, and tested. It rewards compliance and following orders, and punishes any questioning the instructor, and squelches independent thought. It has come to the point when an astute student who acts out in class (through boredom and lack of interest) will have their mind impaired by pharmaceuticals (Ritalin or other nervous system stimulants), to enable them to fit their round mind in the square hole of the education system. These drugs dull the mind, and force conformation on someone who thinks differently. This schooling system churns out graduates who are not prepared for the real world. An 18-year-old leaving school and entering the the work force barely has an idea what they want to do, let alone the knowledge to strike out on their own to tackle the wild world around them. Many have no idea how to do anything but menial labor, such as working at fast food restaurants, or retail without further costly training. The few that can afford to begin higher education are encouraged to choose a field of study, without much chance to see if it's something they'd like to do. In doing so, many are plunged into a life they don't enjoy, wishing they'd chosen differently. Many who go believe going to college or university will better their lives, end up in debt, with little hope of paying the debt down. Looking for work with a load of debt forces many into employment that is outside their field of study, and for lower wages than that which will support their dreams. Those who do not go into debt in the quest for higher education, but instead learn a trade, are usually in a better position both financially and employability. How did this all come about? We have to begin back when many of our great grandparents were in school. During the 19th century, many students were taught in small local schools. These one room classes had students of varying ages, but all were taught by someone who had to understand the curriculum. For instance, in one example from 1912, students are asked various questions that would stump most of today's graduates. A few questions follow from Grammar, Geography and Physiology. "William struck James." Change the Voice of the verb. Tell what you know of the Gulf Stream. How does the liver compare in size with other glands in the human body? Where is it located? What does it secrete.
