Topic: It is easier to become an educated person now compared to the past. AG/DIS
Being an educated person is not easy in the world. Also It can be hard to get various knowledge to be educated ones nowadays. Thus, some people might think that it was easier to become an educated person in the past compared to the present. However, I strongly believe that it is easier to become an educated person now and there are two reasons for that. First, it is because of the computer. And second, it is due to the fact that the modern society is full of endless competition.
To explain, It took a lot of time to be educated or learn subjects by studying with books. However, it is different now. by advance in the computer, we are able to access to diverse contents pretty easily. For this reason, we can gain helpful information and solutions of questions efficiently and quickly. For example, When I was in a high school, i had to prepare for an upcoming math competition. I started to solve several questions in textbooks. However, it was hard to understand notion of equations. Thus, I searched for contents related to math questions in the studying community. Then I was able to find helpful explanation and fully understand the notion after a few minutes later. Moreover, extra contents in the community gave me diverse information about skills of solving questions. Thanks to that, I was able to win the first prize in the competition.
To begin with, as you know this world is full of severe competition. And one's ability can be clouded by other's abilites easily. For this reason we are needed to study harder and improve knowledge. Due to this social atmosphere, we become easily educated people in the society. It is a natural phenomenon these days. For example, when I was a college student, I had to study subjects and participate activites hard. Because it was not easy to be employed by companies and employers only needed students with high grades. Due to this point, I just had to do my best to earn my job as other people in the college did. I put efforts on everything I can including having seminars with professionals and participating company modeling competition. Through this intensive process, I just naturally gained my knowledge and experience. At the end, I got a job and became quite an educated person.
To sum up, I think that it is easier to become an educated person now compared to the past. First, it is because of the computer. And second, it is due to the fact that the modern society is full of endless competition.
