I haven't read the readings yet, so I can't comment on them. I believe that education should play a big role in our society because, we live in a more technologically advanced time than ever before. The children in the school system now, will probably live to be 100 years old. They need to support themselves longer and have to have a lot more tools of education than previous generations, that means a lot of school/ learning. I think children in our school system need to learn as much as possible, and then it's still debatable if they'll stay current with the changing technology within their lifetimes.
My beliefs and values align fairly well with the overall societal function of education. Educarion maintains social order and I think that's important. It now teaches character and that's important. It keeps kids in school at the same time their parernts are working, and that's important as well.
I define my role within the system as a keeper of the system, I keep the children busy learning and hopefully they grow up to be procuctive citizens, within their society.
The students are the reason we do what we do. They are the future keepers of the world. They need the best education they can get to do the best they can at running the world when we no longer around to teach them.
My philosophy incorporations peope of all cultures because that is the world we live in now, All people can contribute and run our society.
