Nowadays professionals, researchers and people in general think that
school is a way of “thought control” in adolescents brains of secondary school.
In the following essay I will develop “Up to what extend is education a way of “thought
control””.
On one hand, exist the issue of school as a way of “educate” ourselves
politically and religiously. In a way, every institution have like a preference
political or religious that favors their selves. In my opinion not particular
schools are deal directly with a side in political if not that the ones that
are more stuffed are the public and private universities that lead to political
benefits. However coming again over the school problematic we could say that
schools maybe teaches you or “control your brains” in a particular way to then make
you study in a university that is connected with that political view you receive
in school. That manage is completely wrong in the way that schools would have to
teaches you different views of politic or religious sides so as to let you
choose what you want.
On the other hand, there is an issue that nowadays is very common in
public and private schools that is students study only to pass the exam and not
to really learn about the subject because they have the pressure that if you don’t
pass that exam you didn’t pass the subject, so they only memorize the theme for
the exam without knowing then how to explain it, so in a way teachers control
our thought letting us know that if you didn’t pass it you will reprove the
subject. In my opinion I don’t think that exams will have to disappear but
maybe develop it with other strategy and as to make students reason and learn
something they wouldn’t forget never in life.
As a conclusion, I consider that is well known students thinking over
this problematic of the control that someone inadvertently could have on their
thoughts. And from that point know that they have to make their own “way of
ideas” and do not let yourself be influences by anyone.
