For a modern person, getting an education is one of the most important stages in life. It is easier for an intelligent person to live both literally and figuratively. But, in order to get a diploma, it is important to know what forms of education are now available and to understand which of them is most suitable for the current situation.
Learning stages
There are two main stages of human education, which are divided into several levels. Each step plays a very important role in the formation and formation of personality. The task of the educational process is to develop the mental and physical abilities of a person, instill good habits, discover the hidden potential for a particular occupation, help him develop his skills.
General education
The following stages of the educational process:
- Preschool education. It is very important for a little man, since it is in childhood that the foundation of a future personality is laid, skills are best developed, interest in various activities is inculcated, and hidden talents are also discovered.
- Primary school education (grades 1-4). This stage consolidates the skills acquired in kindergarten, and also develops new ones. It is no less important for a growing person than preschool education. In addition, it is in the elementary school that the child is socialized (if he did not go to kindergarten) and the rules of life in the team are instilled.
- Secondary general education (grades 5–9). At this time, there is a systematization and consolidation of all the knowledge gained in kindergarten and elementary school, as well as the assimilation of new ones. There is a gradual preparation for adulthood, children become more independent and no longer need parents as before.
- Secondary full education (grades 5-11). In grades 10 and 11, the material learned in high school is repeated, and preparations are being made for studying at a university. The character of a person is already practically formed, and before graduation from school you can observe a full-fledged personality with its unique habits and beliefs.
Professional education
Forms of general education are already known to us, now the turn of professional has come. His young people receive after graduation from school. Such an education is available for a person throughout his life. His goal is to give a person a profession, to instill in him the necessary qualities, abilities and skills for work, as well as additional knowledge. Therefore, the forms of obtaining professional education are numerous and diverse. This is necessary so that the student is guaranteed to be able to get the appropriate skills.
The learning process includes the following steps:
- Secondary vocational education. It can be obtained in specialized schools, colleges and technical schools.
- Higher professional education. It provides much more opportunities than the average, in addition, a person with a university diploma can do science and get a degree. People with a higher education than with a secondary specialized are more likely to take jobs, plus, during the course of studying at a university, such character traits as responsibility, discipline and punctuality develop in a person.
- Continuing education courses. This type of training takes less time than all its brothers. Real specialists are already getting it to deepen their skills and knowledge in order to become a true professional in their field.
Now you need to find out what forms of education and training exist in the Russian Federation.
Consider what the school offers in this regard?
How a child receives a certificate is determined by parents or legal representatives. If a citizen is an adult, then he has the right to choose the type of training for himself. It could be:
- Full-time;
- self-education (independent study at home);
- externship.
Full-time
Education on it is standard, as most students in Russia study. Full-time education involves attending school on a schedule established by the administration of the institution, listening to lessons, completing assignments and communicating with classmates. This type is the most favorable for the student, as he develops the communicative skills of the child, accustoms him to life in a team and communication with a variety of people.
But full-time education also has its drawbacks, which include a difficult regime for the baby. Not every child is able to force himself to go to bed at 9 o’clock in the evening, so that he can get to school at 6 o’clock in the morning. Most often, the mode is controlled by the mother. Keeping a schedule is also difficult for teens. In addition, the disadvantages of full-time forms include relationships with peers in the team. After all, they do not always add up as the child or his parents would like. A change of scenery is also a great stress for a student, and it is this factor that sometimes outweighs the rest in favor of home schooling or external studies, which will be discussed in the next paragraph.
Externate
There are various forms of obtaining education, but this particular method has the greatest legal regulation. The person who is trained in this way is external. This is a person who is mastering independently general educational programs. The student has the right to intermediate and final certification in secondary schools. In other words, to study according to the external studies program means to master all the disciplines independently, according to the schedule drawn up, and to come to the educational institution only to pass the exams, which is necessary to confirm the successful development of the school program.
To study in this way or not is everyone's personal choice. Parents and children will find a lot of pros and cons in this option. One way or another, this method is simply necessary in various situations, for example, for children with difficult life situations, when visiting an educational institution becomes impossible. In any case, externship as a form of education is very good and is necessary for many students.
Self-education (a form of family education)
This form of education is no different from externship, except that the student is not enrolled in any educational institution. Consequently, he cannot pass the necessary exams to confirm the mastery of all programs, because, in simple words, he does not officially study anywhere. His status as a student is not registered anywhere, which means that in the future he will not be able to enter any university. Different forms of education differ from this in their reliability and security. Studying in other forms, the future student receives a guarantee of the opportunity to enter an institute or university.
Methods for obtaining a university diploma and their description
Forms of education in the Russian Federation are diverse and numerous. Below we will consider each of them.
Full-time education
Full-time education at the university is almost no different from school. Already an adult, not a child, attends lectures at an institute or university, performs assignments, participates in seminars and periodically undergoes intermediate certification. At the same time, the student is officially registered as a student and can receive a state diploma upon graduation (provided that the institution has the right to issue such documents).
Part-time (evening) education
Forms of higher education include such classes.Unlike the previous type of training, where about 70% of the study time is allocated to classes with the teacher, there are much less hours for lectures. A week can be no more than 10 hours of listening to the material, and the rest of the time is intended for self-training. This form of education is called evening because classes at students begin after 18:00. Therefore, in this way, learning is ideal for those who have already found work. Classes for “evening students” are held in the same way as for “full-time students” - lectures, seminars, open events, etc.
Distance learning, or externship
Here, 70% of the time is devoted to self-training, and only 30% is allocated for attending lectures. Students, unlike their brothers, who visit the university every day, have a setup session, which they take in the first months after entering a university. Usually it is October-November. The correspondence form of education is ideal for those who work or sit with the child, as well as those who, due to some circumstances, could not enter the full-time department.
Distance learning
The distance learning system appeared not so long ago, but has already managed to take root in many universities. Its essence is that the student and teacher interact remotely with each other, exchanging tasks and completed work. Such communication is carried out mainly through the Internet. Using distance learning is much more convenient to get an education in absentia. After all, the LMS allows the student to receive assignments in a timely manner, and the teacher provides the convenience and speed of checking them. All components of standard education are preserved here - lectures, colloquiums, grades, etc.
Now you can see how rich and diverse the forms of education are. One has only to choose the most suitable and begin to prepare for entrance exams.
