Most Powerful Tool on the Universe

   Education is the most powerful tool in life where the human is what they are today by the development of the mind from the powerful tool Education” with the experiences in life which is flexible, available free in Sri Lanka unlike many countries, powerful and could be converted to the development and also destruction of the humanity if misused. Education is not only what you learn from schools by books based on the education systems but what you learn and acquire from home, environment and leaders of the society culture and religions. It is a combination of practical experience, tests, experiences, research, critical thinking and collection of data by books today and by elders learned and other means in the past. In the past in our part of the world education is held in highest esteem where ‘ Kings ‘ sent future leaders to ‘’Disapamok’’- famous and leading teachers in the past of high reputes where  Kings sent children for education who are versatile  teachers who taught everything is life under one roof and teachers such as ‘Aristotal’  has the group of students arrived far away and the standard of education had been so high that  their teachings are used even in current education modules and systems  despite the developments of modern education techniques and knowledge. We are on the door steps of ‘’Artificial Intelligence’’ and about to start the era of artificial and machine intelligence in place of human intelligence which is supreme as mentioned by ‘Dhammapada’  which cannot be cloned. With artificial intelligence on education developments and tests on innovations to make the life easier for the future. Governments are planning to explore the university resources on the most powerful tool on scientific advancements towards more developed and advanced universe headed by mother earth. Education is not confined to schools’ technical colleges or Universities, though they are centers of education with libraries and laboratories  Villages in Sri Lanka in the past Ayurvada medicine which is historical and to be considered scientific  is taught by ‘’Vedamahattaya’’ through  trainees or family members over  thousands of years proved to be effective over generations  followed by other trades and teachers and ‘Pirivana education  conduct in  temples conducted education  using varied techniques, and education treated with the highest esteem by the community as passport to power and success.

Knowledge includes reading writing and skills

It is mentioned that knowledge includes reading, writing, and skills including critical thinking developed by educationists and thinkers thousands of years ago in order to  prevent injustices, Human and other rights enjoyed by the animal kingdom including human of all ages, are part of education recognized by UNESCO with guidelines to protect the han race, and the world preserving the heritage, environment, and education is considered the passport to development and future to be as a foundation for the unknown future to restructure. Education is preparing for tomorrow with the young generation  is prepared today to the next generation by spending a fair portion of the national economy carefully and scientifically developing and arming and aiming the next generation with knowledge in the right direction with right teachers and right curriculum giving power and authority to those in charge of education to be used n the right direction. In fact it is the most difficult task to find the right teachers, right  education and right political and conceptual leadership in the most complex and demanding society with high expectations, by the citizen learned vis internet freely available and in Sri Lanka with the density of 110% mobile penetration which is a double-edged sward to the community mostly the children open to be misused when there is no supervision. This is rereleased in the west and now restrictions are introduced on the young on the use of the mobiles and internet.

The teaching techniques in some universities in Sri Lanka currently is dictating prepared lectures   to students is a failed system where the student solely depend on the lectures and research  based knowledge depending on lecturers turn to be faikers in the society expecting governments to providing employment and unfortunately based on subjects chosedd they can fit in to be teachers clerks but not productive cotizend in the development of the nation. In Israela every citizen is an innovater or entrapraner with basic education and due to the successful education schemes and modules they excels in life elevation the nation though small a world poer and exporter of fruits and vegetables with shortage of water they make on desalination of sea water, which is s a part of education

Centes of Education

Education is centralized in many centers including Universities, Libraries technical institutions and homes where parents structure the education at early age to be improved by the teachers who are professionally qualified for the job.  

Education and Education Reforms in a country

Education and reforms are a part of the same coin and reforms are a necessity in any nation as knowledge is changing fast for good at a rapid pace of any country through the young generation developing the knowledge with modern technology, they are conversant with which is inevitable in the modern developed and complicated soci and entrtapraner oety with high density of penetration of IT and access to internet freely  to every member of the family, yet the young has to be handled carefully as it is easily inflammable for good and bad with minimum diversions especially when they are computer and IT conversant as taking place today, thereby some countries have denied access of internet and Mobily to a certain section of young and even the food pattern is carefully monitored. Restrictions are made on food to prevent junk food and not to operate junk food shops in the vicinity of educational institutes.

Modules and Educational reforms in Sri Lanka

There appear to be differences of opinion on modules – that is the future proposals of teaching techniques to students by experts on education with policy directions of the governance after extensive researches and dialogues with policy decisions as to how the nation will be structured to face the future challenges with future leaders who will take over rains in the near future. Thee are schools of thoughts that the governance and officials entrusted with the job has not done a proper research and amassment thereby the student was about have access to a site which encourages certain sexual orientations directly of indirectly which is illegal and immoral. There appear to be no arbitrators as both sides have stuct to guns on the openion which has lead to unpleasant everybody with stalling the reform process for which Millon shave been already spent from the government funds which are not easily available.

New Trends in the West to be careful on future generation to be traditional and cultured with the family

Bad news from the west on young of crime and mass shootings by Yong and crime connected to sex. Module that is been introduced is imported from Uuiten Kingdom which is not being used in the school curriculum which has modelled carefully after extensive research by Educationists in Europe, which is scientific  and employment oriented with advanced social backgrounds giving emphasis to misleading the students on misuse and overuse of mobile and computers, which are gradually restricted to the students in including food habits with  Junk full  curtailed in the school diet and banning Junk food stalls near schools in UK and Europe. This shows how carefully the children are protected in other parts of the world especially in Europe.

Controversial Link on finding New Friends on similar orientations which is withdrawn due to mass agitation against

Controversial Link

The controversial link about to be introduced in the English Modul in Sri Lanka the governance states said to be a coup by some senior members of the education ministry/department who are under interdiction on allegation of a coup and malpractices on inserting a controversial module into the English curriculum in a module form to   6^th standard  stuents  in Sri Lanka  which is a serious allegation in deed has no place in the parallel module in UK of meeting friends online. It is stated the link is removed but all the rest is removed is not a solution as it is a requirement to revisit and re research the project depeloped after spending millions of rupees by the Education ministry/department.

As mentioned before our future generation should be properly groomed, trained and educated to take over the future on behalf of the citizen and education reforms is the machinery for the grouming process and all possible precautions should be taken. One complaint is that no pepper, plan, research, or preparation has been taken and it appears nobody is aware of the  real experts and planners of the operation except one government office who is picked up by the team f investigators as one who has proposed the inappropriate sex link on sexual orientation of similsr sex which is accepted by some countries when Sri Lanka has made it a criminal offence.

Powerful but may be a dangerous and destructive tool if misused

It may be a lethal tool if misplaced and go to the hans of destructive minds and it is the very reason that the natin and governance has to be careful in education policies and eforms the other countries are extremely careful about.

Education and educated in Sri Lanka

Literary rate is high and the world recognized Sri Lanka is an educated nation with educated citizens excels worldwide due to free education nnd the efforts of all parents to educate the future leaders with the power known as education. Edutain plays a main role in other sectors such as econiomy, development, crime prevention, forwign elation and all areas needs education and educated to deal with based on good education Sri  Lanka is  rich and competent with the educated young who are eerily Waiting and parents are spending the last cent investing on education on the children  which is a good and sensible invest on the children and the entire nation we love somuch and aspire to be the best in all areas with the help of proper education to all including young an for a bright future os our blessed nation for  situated in the best destination not exploited unfortunately as the education in this area too have not been exploited by the governances.

Solution to the Issue

It is appropriate to give new directions to the same group entructed the project to revisit and prepare a home grown muddle instead of the one imported bodily from United Kingdom and go beck to Dr C W W Kannangara principles applied in central colleges thay have been proved sacksful and give the right place to English to practical and spoken English rather than grammer only as English educaton was modelled by British was to teach grammar as they are conversant of spoken and practical English. Passport to success on Education today is English as academics and professionals switch to after school and university education reaching international level. Even  in the legal field though courts are functioning in Sinhala ans Tamil the Supreme Court Judgment are still deleverd in English, with all reference materials are only in English. Therefore special emphasis should be given to Englich as a link, academic, higher and professional medium

No limits or boundaries

Artificial intelligence has no limits of boundaries as it is ever grgrowing due to experiments and developments that are taking evewry second in all fields, mostly on medicine as it eals on the body and mind. Therefore nations allocate countless funds of funds for education as the return of the proceeds of eucatio too is countless. There fore countries do not hesitate to spend on education knowing the future benefits and returns are defenit to the world in all spheres. Parents invest on educating children as it is the best investion that will definitely could reap the harvest with pleasure and benefits to the family an the country.

English education especially spoken English as a powerful tool in education

AI and modern techniques on Education

Artificial Intelligence is mesne knowledge that is created by the power of education of the human being still unable to overpower the natural power of the brain by mechanizes giving considerable positive results such as digitalization improved Robots, and many inventions in place of human brain and human labor srill AI is unable to override. It will take lot more time to create a cat or a dog to identify with the senses and instinct in the body. Scientists work round the clock to achieve the objects and we have to patiently wait for the future to decide. Now developments are many on Uber unmanned circuses on digitalization and other miraculous achievements are signs of future achievements based on power of education and experiments by the man with the help of the brain which is the most powerful and miraculous instrument on the globe.

English Education modules and higher education

English is a main tool to explore education and it is easy to master English spoken and written with tools such as AI and internet that is used as servants to the human who has equipped the advanced stages of mind with development of the mind which is supreme. Therefore the young must be determined to improve their skills with language skills to explore the world of education to help themselves and the others who needs the assistance of the educated to improve themselves.
