Two concepts to keep in mind when thinking about evaluating education should be the following: Who will evaluate our education. How will our education be evaluated. To the first, the principal participant should be ourselves. We should be the first to evaluate our education. To the second, careful consideration and open discussion should be combined in order to arrive at a clear and fair process by which our education ought to be evaluated. Keeping in mind these two concepts should allow us to have a better appreciation for our education, while gaining a greater understanding of the value we gain as an educated people.
It is of great importance that learners evaluate education so they, as students, may judge the value and worth of what has been learned and studied through the process of becoming educated, and thus having acquired knowledge. There are four steps which can be taken to achieve this, beginning with the creation of a scale to be used for rating the value of education.
This education scale value needs to take into consideration the length of time in education, the locations where education has taken place, and the knowledge which has been learned by being taught, or having experienced through our senses, feelings, and emotions. Third in the steps is to assess education by filtering it through the five A's (Availability, Amplitude, Accuracy, Accomplishments, Acknowledgements). Last, it is up to us to implement the process by executing the evaluation of education.
