Introduction
Summary
On the same side, Trewby also made a huge emphasis on the Conflict. According to
Trewby this said conflicts arises when corruption and inequality exists both
harmoniously. In some instances, arising rebellions threat the future foreign
investments, the deprived ones made out by corruption and equality posts great threat
into our economic stability of our country. Likely as said, private institutions are
needed to power up governmental programs such as the theory of free education to
all. But because of the conflict that raises, our chances of foreign support is
detrimental.
Critique
It has been in the very verge of argument that the quality of education in our
country must be prioritize. Ever since globalization takes the world in a sweep, it is in
our hands, the government and the administration to upgrade the skills of the people
as the modern world does. Thus; lately, our government is making signs of progress in
combating the inevitable becoming tougher world of competition especially in the
quality of education. But, is it really necessary to keep up with the changing trends
despite of having much and more crucial problems currently existing in the country?
Is it a need to keep up with the change even though we aren’t built to fight it? In
particular, are we ready for the change that new educational policies being embrace in
our educational system despite from all the corruptions in the country, existing
inequality amongst our citizens, conflicts and violence, unemployed/ underemployed?
Is this time the appropriate and best time to welcome change? We are built to change
and for change but; we and those who are in the position should also put in mind that
Philippines is still a developing country, struggling with a number of challenging
issues. –This would quietly mean that our country is vulnerable. Trewby’s mentioned
major developing problems faced by the Philippines today (Corruption, Inequality,
Conflicts, Underemployed/ Unemployed) are an eye opener. –An eye opener to those
people who are in the position to influence, make the decision for the goodness of the
fellowmen. –A fact that would remind us that rapid and radical change is not good to
every situation, that one solution may not be applicable to another.
The way how Trewby attacks and relate how developing problems existing in
the country to our education has made a broader view to what has to come in this
change we are currently facing right now. We all know that implementing new
educational policies in the Philippines has been a struggle from the fact that it hardly
stresses our economical status.
Conclusion
Trewby’s study about the developing issues in our country and how it impact
and how education impacts it was commendably able to let me see through the light.
He emphasized the recurring issues that we, as Filipinos can’t unseen, unheard and
deny. Trewby though he isn’t a Filipino citizen, was able to merge important pieces of
information and able to create a very resourceful and informative reading material.
Although there are some of the parts where he wasn’t able to cover, yet he made a
I believe that Trewby could have explain better the developing issues if he
also tackled the implementation of such educational policies in the educational system
in regards to the teacher themselves and the monitoring of the implemented programs.
If he did, then it would tough up to the much broad sphere in education. In that extent,
globalization of education will be tackled and more interest can be put into.
Policy Implication
There are pros and cons into this educational reform. (1) it is an advantage to
the new generations who can access such grant of educational reform through which
their skills are more inclined to what they want to do in their lives. New generations
who can access these reforms can better lead the profession they really want.(2) the
strands offered are also inclined to the global market and graduates will possess
competencies and skills relevant to the job market. Thirdly, Graduates will be
prepared for higher education and will be able to earn higher wages. Also the
additional years of schooling has a positive overall impact in the society. Studies
show by then, Philippine education system will be at par with the international
standard. This only means that a better educated society provides a sound foundation
for a long-term socioeconomic development. On the other hand, disadvantages do
exist upon it. (1) Parents have to shell out more money (for transportation and food)
for education of their children. (2) The government has more on its plates when it
comes to allocation of funds, insufficient funds are hard to face. (3) Institutions
should first fix what has to needed to be fixed before engaging into new and different
We all know that all things in this world has its pros and cons, advantages and
disadvantages; the only thing we all have to remember is that no matter how
advantages weigh than disadvantages or vice versa, we all have to remind ourselves to
make a decision not only for ourselves but for the goodness of the people we are
living with. New educational reforms must be taken seriously by the people who have
the power to decide for which there lies many things to consider. Let us be reminded
that authorities are the ones who have the capability to decide but the people will
endure either the reward or consequences made by the authorities. Implementing such
reforms in education strains not only our economy but also the children who are
subjected on it and the families who want the best education for their children. It
should be a lesson that it is not that bad to go with the change and trends but let us be
reminded of the accompanying consequences it has.
