IS EDUCATION CHANGING? In 50 past years education has changed a lot, although education has been funded by government, only few people were able to afford it. Recently, most people take advantage from it and the country has an economic growth due to the fact that there are well-prepared people. Firstly, 50 years ago people had very few places where they were able to study. As a consequence, people needed quite money to move to where there were available centres, so few people go on with their studies. Regarding new programs, it is a fact that today education has bilingual programs and students can study a subject teached in a different language. This provides the student a good knowledge about language skills but does the student acquire the content related to the subject? There are a lot of people against this type of program. Another point to consider is the changing method that teachers use. Fifty years ago, students learned by hearth mainly and teacher used the blackboard to teach some content. These days, they tend to use new technologies to show the students attractive content in an enjoyable way. This method is based on virtual demonstrations, quizzes, on line exercises in order to get the attention of the students. In conclusion, although the most important aim has always been the personal growth of the student, by and large education has changed a lot these days. We need to wait some years to see other changes because education has to adapt to this challenging society. How will it change? Obviously, time will give us an answer. Thanks for your correction
