Quality Education, what is it?

Written By: Ramos, Justine Francis

         Quality education encompasses not only the cognitive academic type but stretches out to intellectual, emotional intelligence, creativity, and other social skills. It must enable each individual to strive freely to meet life's challenges and make concrete input to society. Going through what I underwent gives me an experience that the most vital acquisition took place in those schools where teachers involved the children in real life issues and exercises and cooperation in a group and instruction aligned to support the various needs. Resources-material as well as digital-based are required to create an inclusive and exciting learning environment.

However, important issues are still present. Poorly funded schools, out-of-date curricula, large class sizes, and the digital divide limit the real potential of quality education for all. Educators often are burdened by a lack of resources, low levels of professional development, and intensively demanding workloads, forcing them to operate in conditions that limit their ability to innovate or help students whose diverse needs the educators do not address. This means disengaged learners, low educational outcomes, and lack of practical skills, unprepared for real-world challenges.

Promotion of quality education is fundamental to societal development. Education can lift people out of poverty, help increase participation in civic affairs, and enhance health outcomes. It has been proved around the world that investments in education, such as girls' education, drive straightforward social and economic benefits through increased growth in economies to reduce child mortality. A well-educated population is established to spur and steer sustainable development by leading innovation.

This has recently become technology: the increasing reliance in the growth of education, in showing excitement with multimedia presentation and real-time access to information for students. The other side to this is that it will worsen the educational inequality due to uneven availability of digital resources. There is also a potential impact on the development of social and communication skills.

I would promote quality education by promoting equitable access to it, teachers' development, and innovative teaching practices that incorporate technology to the advantage of all learners. It fosters community engagement in creating an empowered and more inclusive educational environment.
