About the
“Ancient”child
In those times,the opinion of the
child was considered insignifacant.
The child had to listen,r he could
be beaten by his parents.
He didn’t have any rights,he had
just to listen his parents.
Modern Education
Nowadays,the education in EU is
superior.All is based on child skills,and
the work that he does.
If you are good on a subject or an
activity,that country will do all the
best for you to reach someone.
Technology is an another factor,it helps
theachers to teach better,and pupils to
learn better.
About the
“Modern”child
Beginning with the XX century,the child
started having rights.Now his opinion is
egal with a mature.
It is not allowed to beat your
child,because that is a violation of his
rights.
The future depends on him,nowadays,you
can be whoever you whoever you want.
Conclusion
My opinion is that the modern methods of
teaching are the best, because that
offers the oportunity of everyone to be
himself, that is why is called democracy.
After all, we can see numerous
exemples of countries that are great
because of their education, so when our
country decides to adopt one of them, I
think that we will be an amazing country.
Thank you!
