What is different between education in the past and education in the now?

Answer 1

A couple of differences are:

increased knowledge

increasing complexity and quality of materials

There are more. For example, the issues involved with student behavior are totally different now than they were in the past. 50 years ago, the most common behavior problems were talking and Chewing Gum in class. Students respected their teachers and obeyed them and the rules. If they didn't respect the teacher, they at least showed them respect. There was an occasional physical fight, but nothing that was not handled quickly and effectively. Standing in corners, missing recess and spanking were acceptable punishments. Now, behavioral issues can involve almost anything from showing teachers disrespect to the most dreaded of all, school shootings.

Schools were smaller back then, so parents usually knew the teachers. Curriculum was focused on academic subjects like reading, writing, arithmetic, science, etc. Formal sex education was nonexistent in schools. Prayer was allowed without questioning that it was "unconstitutional." In fact, when schools were first organized, the McGuffy Readers that were used contained scriptures from The Bible. "Zero Tolerance" was unheard of in the past.

The school year was shorter back then. The year started after Labor Day and ended the last of May. There were no choices for lunch. We ate the one meal that was prepared or just did not eat. There were no vending machines in schools.

There are no doubt more differences, but that is a few of them.
