Answer 1

Maybe a paper about the difference between the education you get from your teachers and books in school, as compared to the education you get from observing other people in everyday life. Like, a teacher taught you how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide, but who taught you how to be an adult and be responsible, stick up for yourself, have respect for others, etc... I don't know. Good luck! Remember to use complete sentences and spell check.

Answer 2

First off, bad for you that you had to go back August 11th!

Second, what is the ******* essay about? What exactly is education?

Write this down.

"Education, in its most straightforward doctrine, is the passing of information of several different topics from a more experienced person specialized in a specific piece of information to a less experienced person. However, during the time and age of modern society where the value of one's education, or rather their discipline and hard work ethic, affects their overall salary in life, "education" is simply a asset that is needed for that purpose.

Aside from the teachings of ethics such as responsibility and social interaction-- skills that are needed in an environment of employment and business--, the information that the United States Educational Department tells its young minds to study, aside from the basics, is easily forgettable and irrelevant. In a time where money can be achieved in ways other than having to do through tax-funded learning institutions, the importance of the word "education" has been downgraded to just a word with a forgotten meaning, a doctrine that has not been studied in a long time."

That's all I wrote!

I'll probably fail if I wrote this!

LOL  

Answer 3

Think about what education means to you.  Knowing more than when you started.

What should be the goals of education?  What role should it play in the development of the human being?

Answer 4

talk about social education (interacting with people), physcial education (gym, sports, and such), skill education (art, cooking, sewing, and other electives), and academic education (basic academic subjects). Tell what kind of education you get with each of these, how they affect you, and why they are important to learn

but, remember, unless you have a terribly strict teacher, this either wont count, or count for very little, but it does make an impression on the teacher about what kind of student you are

Answer 5

The best thing to wrote an essay is to prepare an outline first that what you are going to write about make a list of ideas/topic then explain each item briefly. For example What exactly education is may have following outline

Formal definition  of education

Type of education i.e formal(schooling) or informal(self learning, distant leaning etc)

Eduaction method 50 years back

technology based education today etc
