Our Educational System has it all wrong.

<h1>Our Educational System has it all wrong.</h1>

<div align=justify>Before we can say what is wrong with our educational system, we should define the term.The purpose of the educational system is to:           Pass on Knowledge           Relate relevant issues to each other           Prepare individuals and groups for future situations The passing on of knowledge is one of the oldest civilized functions. The passing on of knowledge was originally done in the form of stories told when people got together. Once languages were written, then came libraries which were repositories for knowledge. The passion to record and relate all knowledge has remained a goal of scholars since the invention of libraries.There is no better example of that than the World Wide Web. It's original intended purpose was provide a central access site where all knowledge could be retained and for related items to be linked to each other. The need for cross transfer of information has long been recognized as a needed but thorny issue.The issue is thorny because of the difficulty in execution of a noble idea. As was mentioned earlier, large well organized enterprises have developed systems, involving SMEs (subject matter experts), which are specifically designed to enhance cross transfer of new ideas and concepts within and without their organizations. As in all such situations, this is not a perfect solution, but it is practical. The preparation of individuals and groups for future situations is the single most extensive function of our educational system This is as it should be. This preparation process has three components. The first is the educational system as a whole. The second component is technical education/training. The third component is vocational education/training. The functions identified as numbers two and three can arguably be included in the first category. Because thier more specialized characteristics, they have differences which need to be identified. The above classification was chosen as the way to do that. Our Educational System also has three distinct components. They are University Educational Systems, High School Educational Systems and Grade School Educational Systems. The University Educational System has several components. These are Graduate School, Undergraduate School and two year Associate Degree Programs. Graduate Schools are responsible for the preparation of scholars who will perpetuate the present customs. They are responsible for basic research in both general and technical areas. They are responsible for technical qualification and training and for general managerial training and qualifications. </div>
