"A Turn of the Phrase(s)" by Will Richardson matters because it talks about how:
"We need to move beyond from the idea that education is something that is provided for us and towards the idea that education is something we can create for ourselfs"(Stephen Downe).
Why this matters is because this idea is something that we all look past, we can still customize education to a students strong or favorite subjects. This matters to me because I personally belief student's should have more cuztimazation to our schedules. I don't like the idea that you may get into the class you want. This matters to education because it would show the students intrest earlier then when you write it on a college apllication sheet. It would give the college's the ability to track students as they progress through highschool instead of reeading what we do once we send our college apllication. This article matters to the world because many people have seen the struggles of students trying to get into college when there electives show no sign of what they are intrested. What if your intrested in Computer Automatied Desgin but you don't end up getting Tech Studies for a elective. The school board needs to re-think the idea of school has to be provided for us in order for us to learn.
