My College "Education"

As only a recent college graduate, I do not have much say in how education was prior to 2002, but my experience has been quite eye opening. The past four years has made me wonder where America will rank in terms of new development in the future against other developing and developed countries. I say this because my education experience has been disappointing. Almost everywhere, students are not doing their homework. With the rapid development and availability of the internet, anybody can simply Google their homework problems. This process secretly hurts students because it does not train them to fully understand course material. In turn, an education without a solid understanding of the major does not prepare college students for the global workplace. This in turn may be the reason why top-ranked companies put entry level works through a rigorous training process. Though I have only recently witnessed this in the college arena, I certain similar happens are occurring in high school and even middle school. Schools need to coordinate with their teachers and possibly parents to cut down on Googling answers to insure proper education.
