The Role of Education in Building a Better World w/ Roger Parrot

from Apogee Strong · host Matt Beaudreau

We often hear the quote, “Education is Power”. This is true as education equips us with the weapon of knowledge to achieve our dreams and face any challenges in life. Sadly, people are willing to spend on education just to get small value. Students cannot see how critical it is to have education, the knowledge they can use to improve the world and their lives. The world is slowly becoming illiterate, as students don’t have the desire to read. And they use different methods to cheat, not knowing that they only fool themselves. Roger Parrot shares his life experiences, wisdom, and advice with future generations. Education is critical, but nowadays, people do not see how valuable it is. Students must understand how education can revolutionize their life to be prepared for the challenges in life, but they need to put in the effort to acquire it. Tune in as young leaders ask questions about life, personal growth, education, and more! Quotes: “College experience shouldn't be transformational. It should show that revolutionize your life to prepare you for great things. However, you've got to invest, ” – Roger Parrot “The downside of this generation is they don't read. And we are becoming an illiterate world, not just a country. People do not want to read. And when you don't read the words, you don't get the enrichment and insights, all the things that you could get out of it.” – Roger Parrot “I'm challenging my campus to ask students who you're cheating. If you use Chat GPT and use it for paper, you didn't cheat us, and we'll give you the grade. It didn't change anything. It didn't hurt us. All you're doing is cheating yourself.” – Roger Parrot Takeaways: Education is the only product that people purchase and are content to receive a low value for. On the other hand, if students demanded value for their education, the nature of higher education would change. This generation of students knows the importance of working as a team and helping each other out. The downside is that students now do not want to read, and the world is becoming illiterate. Students should love reading and realize the value of it to get pieces of knowledge that can help them in life. Students must understand that when they cheat, they only cheat themselves. As such, students need to take their studies seriously because, in the end, their lack of knowledge from cheating will have a huge impact on their life. Conclusion: A person's most powerful weapon should be education. It equips us with the knowledge we need to navigate this complex world. It prepares us for life's challenges. And it will be one of the means by which our dreams will be realized. Education is essential; everyone should have it and must enjoy it in order to get the most out of it.
