School or Skills?

[bubilas]

I would like to tell a story about my classmate who was a very smart and modest guy, and so while everyone was playing football, he was into programming. At the same time, he sometimes showed us his funny programs that he made.
And at school he had some problems with grades in all subjects except math and computer science. And the funny thing is that he was very afraid that he would not get into university. But when I saw him, many years later, it seemed that he was working as a programmer in a large successful company. And I think that this is a bright example of how skills decide a person's fate while education is not very important.

Knowledge is useful only when is used. Example with school subjects. Learned chemistry for 6 years in school. Cant remember when I used that knowledge. Learned physics at school for 6 years. Cant remember when I used formulas and calculated something (all the time we were calculating tasks). Geometry - learned that 8 years. Only used basics as perimeter/square when doing repairs at home. Trigonometry - either use calculator or calculate integers in mind to get average total. Overall school knowledge was useful for worldview, but even if I learned a lot of things at school, I still google and search on youtube for lots of things. I would better spend more time on sport lessons at school to be more healthy today, than waste time learning how to calculate somethin in mind or on the paper, when calculator is always with me in my mobile.

This is not only your friend story many around us working like this because they are always afraid of their education but keep working on their favorite give them good success as your friend done good on programming here I have few those have never been good in education, but they achieve their targets as they have done good on their skills.
Sadly in developing countries not work on peoples personal interest and how they need to be gone in practical world due to the worst education system but now many countries are working on this and having good results which are increasing their skills workers force which are helpful for them in long run.
Firstly need to work on mind then giving proper training in favorite skills always increase better results and also have good impact on person's life because skills are always important but with education its double enjoyment.

It is rightly said that school and college education introduce us to skills. Skills are a set that is well organized through our work or activities. Together education and skills make a business successful. Again many times it is seen that those who have higher education but have not been able to apply their skills properly through that education, of course, the opposite is also seen. So to achieve any goal, we must expand our thinking widely, only then will we be able to achieve our desired goals through our academic education and the education acquired through reality.

That’s one fact, Usher said, education is necessary but, might not be what empowers the youths and that’s true. Having to use skill as an excluding factor to education in the context that this thread is propagated doesn’t mean well for society. We need an educated laborer so, these educated labor could be able to come up with designs that could work where skills fail. Yea, skills can fail  and vice versa but, scientific methods is one that follows some patterns to its delivery. It often doesn’t end badly when it was well mapped out.

The exclusion of skills in education is a severe social issue. If we want to accelerate productive thinking and productivity, we have no alternative but skill-based education. There are many countries like ours where there is no medium or social interest in skill development besides formal education. Therefore, I believe that only if we can provide skill-based education in our society we will be able to witness development collectively.

School should be for the theory purpose because we know that theory is important first because of don't know nothing about our field then we will not be able to understand the point. There are many points which we can understand from our teachers and they could help us . Skills will make us valuable person is the society because people need work and if we will work then it will be good for them . There is video editing which is valuable skill and we could earn from that because there is high demand of that and all people like to see videos of different topics . Graphic designing is also good field and we could earn handsome from that .When we will join good group then we will be successful in our game .

By my assumptions, there are strong indications already that we are moving past an era where employers put educational qualifications at the fore front of their requirement for employment into certain positions, some employers now hold personal qualities such as skills possessed by the individual ahead of the school they went to and the degree they graduated with. First, I would like to ask, could this be a reflection of a failing educational system? My second question is that if you happen to be the employer here, which will you consider more, school or skills?

Well I wouldn't say it is entirely a sign of a failing educational system. I would just say that the world is moving a whole lot faster than the educational system.
The Educational system is still playing a huge role in the way people think and solve problem for example during the outbreak of one of the world deadliest virus which was the corona virus, it was the medical doctors that where consulted to contain the virus, and as you all know you require education to become a medical doctor.
Presently the job market has taken a drastic turn, employers now care about what you can do right now than what you studied years ago. So yeah if I was an employer who is currently hiring I would prioritize skills, because that is what gets the job done, but I would still value education as its foundation.

When both education and skills are present in a person, then his knowledge and work skills are advanced. Education helps people find different types of enlightened paths and skills teach them to implement them, through education, people can understand the difference between right and wrong and develop morality, and through skills, every person solves almost all the problems of his real life, if there is both education and skills, it is easy to get a job and it is also possible to start freelancing and business through this, if a person has his own skills, his confidence increases and his ability to make the right decisions increases. Education and skills help people to become respected individuals in society, and he can make various contributions to society and show the way to others. If there is education skills, it is possible to develop skilled citizens of the country through citizens.

But can you tell me, how many people have you met who have done what your friend did? In your class at that time, how many students and how many could do what that guy did? Because it’s not just about hard work; it’s also about talent, innate intelligence, and you need to know that not everyone has that hidden potential. As you said, he is very smart. So, if we are just an ordinary person, we do not have any outstanding strengths. We should try to study hard and get good results because that is the only way we can compete with them.

Each of us is different, different from IQ, EQ to living environment, personality...so don't compare and don't think that if they can do it, you can do it too or vice versa. We should know who we are, where we are, what we can do...don't compare and don't assume that what Elon and Mark Zuckerberg can do, we can do too.

What you have expressed is quite a good suggestion because in formal education, knowledge is still very limited by a certain curriculum so that things related to skills are not in formal education. That is why every person or child who is still in school must take education that has a skills base in order to improve their own quality while receiving formal education at a young age. I also quite agree if the state wants to provide education that has a skills base so that all people can become more independent and not too dependent on others in the employment sector.

In regarding into the question then this is something that doesnt need up to have that kind of choice on which education should be that in default. Just like on what you have said that this will be enhancing out when it comes to theory on which its important for you to be wary and able to learn it on school because later on at the time hat you do already that become independent then this is where you would be trying out to mold up your skills on which it will be that same goes into the learning that you do get from school. Instead on trying out to make up some differences in between then it will be just that best that you should be that versatile on different conditions in life that oyu might be able to encounter. Some people do think that education isnt important because some people who dont have a degree or didnt touch up school but still ending up on becoming successful. Well, these are things on which there's no way that we can be able to predict because there are tons of factors on which it would be needing up for you to consider about because success isnt something that could easily be obtained and if you arent that good on how to make up some plans and sticking up into those goals then you will be that easily get disrupted with tons of temptations around. School + Skills should be something that need up for you to consider rather than on thinking up on solely with that single option. Why you cant just that have two? Thrive out on achieving up on finishing school and then later on you do hone up on the skills on which you do have. Each person does have that own set of skills on which they can make use of it on day to day basis into their lives. There are just that those times or moments that you do become that easily feeling of giving up because of the hardship and challenges that you might be able to encounter and thats why its important that you should stood firm into the decisions that you had made out earlier.

The importance of schools also implementing skills-based learning so that when we finish school we also have skills that will make it easier for us to get a job after graduating from school. Currently, skills must be honed outside of school. However, schools and skills must exist for every young generation. Because school is a place to shape ourselves to be able to solve problems faced later and this is where we learn communication ethics. Indeed, not all subjects can be directly useful in the world of work, but work patterns and the influence of pressure in the process form habits. This is useful when entering the world of work and the higher the school, the more accustomed to these patterns so that later we will be stronger in facing the burdens in the world of work. Likewise with skills, because skills are something that is needed from a young age in planning a better future. So both are a must, therefore the best solution for every country is to add skills-based education to the school curriculum.

[Swordsoffreedom]

So both are a must, therefore the best solution for every country is to add skills-based education to the school curriculum.

Actually, the idea of ​​incorporating skills into the curriculum and combining them with knowledge is not new, but it is complex and not as simple as we think. Putting skills in schools means putting more pressure on students. They have to spend more time on studying and that can negatively affect their health as well as other activities in life.


Each student has their own interests, strengths and talents, which will make education difficult because it requires a lot of human resources to implement. Not to mention, that will make tuition fees increase very high, will parents accept and be satisfied with that?


Overall, this idea is not new but it is easier said than done and that is why only private schools, schools for the rich apply this idea while public schools do not.

My second question is that if you happen to be the employer here, which will you consider more, school or skills?

Here an interesting dilemma arises. It is important for any employer that their employees perform their job duties well. This is impossible without certain skills that are formed with experience. But quality skills can only be built on fundamental basic knowledge, which is obtained in educational settings (let's be honest, not in all of them). As an employer, I would not rush from one extreme to another and therefore would prefer an employee with education and skills. That is, after receiving an education, he must gain experience, where he will receive the necessary skills, which, together with the education received, will make him a true professional.

Education without skills is a dummy.
Skills without education - this can work up to a certain point, but one day the lack of theoretical knowledge will interfere with work processes.

Balance is important here, meaningful education (not like in the modern education system), on which a lot of time is not wasted, and skills - based on basic knowledge.

Are you referring to any Disciplinary skills? Or you meant the courses based skills?, actually the only one that's much needed in school is the practical skills on those courses and that would be the persons self development of productive structure after the education, for instance those that studied business management after they concluding there programs with adequate professional business Management skills they do not need to border themselves much for employment if they have the finance because they would want there skills to work for themselves, so actually this is what schools need but for Disciplinary skills it might not be necessary because you don't have to learn everything in school.

Overall, education and skill are two sides that cannot be separated from each other and believing indeed you have highest skill if lack education get difficulty how to find good job for right now moment. Its trues experienced in my country Indonesia what happening nowadays however your skill if lack with education level you get difficulty to find good job with higher payment salary.
First of all when applying for a job, requirements are needed with the level of education, the higher the education the easier it is to get a job plus having qualified skills. It is different if you have quite high skills but are not balanced with a little education level, it is difficult to get a decent job. So most important to remember, skill without education is nothing for right now and conversely education without skills make difficult for accepting at company, make it balance between your education and your skill.

In the end, the point that is quite important in this case is that we cannot choose one of the two because at a certain point in this case skills and education have their respective roles to support our future lives so that in the end if we really want to make a very good thing where we can support life in the future then in the end if we can then we better have to do both where education and skills are done.

Indeed, this is a little more difficult but at least this can support us to get a better life. Things like this can be forced but in the end if it is still possible then why not unless there are some urgent things that cannot make us do the same so it is possible to choose then it might be considered to choose one of education or skills but if we can still do both then do it because it can be a very good thing to support our future.

Education, dude, is still something that can be considered, and it can also be part of our success so that our skills can be developed stronger or faster in this regard.

Although of course our skills are still better because if we develop and use them correctly, they will surely be the bridge to achieving what we want in life. This was most of the time happen to those successful person

If it is said to be a failure it may not be entirely true, but everyone should hone their skills to make it easier for them to adapt. If education is good and the skills they have are sufficient, it will be much easier for everyone to get a job and I think both are very important. But if the question is categorized in general, then we need to first examine what kind of job sector we provide so that skill qualifications and diplomas can be a suitable reflection for people to work.

I know that almost most people might choose skills over school in giving jobs to others, because sometimes the skills that people have are not affiliated with schools. This depends on the needs of the job and if skills are prioritized, then there is nothing wrong with it, but it is much better when both are fulfilled in people.

All of the motherfuckers here say that education is important, BUT YOU ARE ALL TOO FUCKING STUPID TO REALIZE THAT BITCOIN DOES NOT EVEN HAVE A MINING ALGORITHM THAT IS DESIGNED TO ADVANCE SCIENCE! BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING POSITIVE ABOUT EDUCATION, HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT NOT BEING SUCH A STUPID FUCKING MORON?!?!?!?

Snip

You have been throwing insult on the group for long that as I'm quoting you I have to snip it. Can I ask you a simple question, I'm throwing back the challenge at you, do you know the mining algorithm you are claiming people on this thread doesn't have the knowledge, you obviously don't know any $shit, if you really do I'm very confident you wouldn't have time to be throwing shade and jab on people pouring their opinions on education and skills.

Bitcoin was never an innovation from beginning, it's a combination of different ideas from different people and Satoshi became creative about it to create something unique the world has never seen before. If you are that genius person who claim to be intelligently sound, you should have some papers and research people can refer to see the work you have done over the years or perhaps BIP_ that you have submitted to Bitcoin developers to improve Bitcoin.
