Explain How Education Has Changed Over The Years

How Education has Changed Over Time Did you know that about 44% of people leave education as a profession before their first five years of teaching? Education has changed majorly over the years, some positive and some negative. The teaching career has changed overtime affecting the amount of teachers and subs, the individuals leaving the education careers, and how the material in education has changed.

Over the years education has changed, it has been noticed in the amount of subs and teachers. In recent years, there has been a decrease in the amount of people willing to substitute teaching. There has also been talk about public schools recruiting and compensating substitute teachers.There is also a lack of substitute teachers due to low pay
Technology has also been able to greatly expand the access to education for many. There are also more opportunities for communication and collaboration in education. Technology is powerful and can help support and change education. This is also helping to make good education possible for everyone. Even though there are many positive things about advancing technology in education, there are still negative things about it. For example, technology causes privacy and security concerns about student privacy in schools. There are also decreased social interactions that affect interpersonal skills and social emotional development. Technology has also caused distraction in the classroom. During my job shadow, I got to see and experience what it's like in the classroom. When asked why did you choose this job? Angie Mattson said “I feel like I've wanted to be a teacher my whole life. I never changed my mind about it since I was a little girl. I come from a long line of teachers, so maybe it was just in my blood”. I also asked her what the greatest challenge facing students was. Angie Mattson then stated that “Honestly, I think having 2 young kids with working parents is hard for kids. They don't get a lot of downtime at home, and it is hard on them. I also think technology takes the place of playing outside, or cooking with a parent, or being creative. I understand the problem. My kids have the technology too. It's tough for families in this day and age”. I also asked her if technology has helped or caused problems in education, Angie Mattson said, “It has helped me with my teaching! In first grade, I am in a unique situation where I can create engaging lessons and we can watch things in real time. I can also have a lesson shared by other teachers anywhere in the world. It's pretty amazing. I don't think I'd feel the same if my students carried around Chromebooks though. That adds a lot of headache
