Separate Ideas

Sir Ken Robinson and Pasi Sahlberg have two different ideas when it comes to education reform. Sir Robinson’s argument is that we are still trying to approach education just like we did in the past however, according to him we shouldn’t be doing that we should be approaching it in a way to better suit the students of the present day. On the other side of the argument we have Pasi Sahlberg. He argues that America focuses more on competition and payment rather than focusing on the individual as well as equity and equality. The conversation between the two would possibly be one of the most heated arguments between education reform. Sir Robinson values the way the education system is setup whereas Sahlberg’s suggestion is to focus more on the individual student. The argument would rise out of the fact that Sahlberg wants America to completely overhaul its way of education yet Sir Robinson only focuses on the way it operates and how students should be organized. They both want education reform. How they both want it are entirely different from each other in their own respective ways.
