Reflection Paper
Education gives us much to think, question and look beyond the obvious. Education
empowers an individual to think. The best way to satisfy our curiosity is to learn and explore
more without ending the brilliant desire. It is as important as the basic necessities. It improves
your knowledge, gives you a wider view of the world and of how things work, reduces social and
economic difference and thereby promotes equality and self-esteem. Education is also a way of
The Philippines is one of the countries with a poverty problem that is creating some
impediments for education. We are known as Third World Countries. On paper the Philippines

The explanation for the poor proportion of Philippine children having access to secondary
education isn't just poverty. Poverty. Bad encouragement from their own families often leads
children to low school success, rebellion and even vices. Students require instruction to be
directed. Another is the lack of funding from the government. You don't pay attention to them
sometimes. We do have teachers who are not willing to teach or provide students with what they
need to learn and pass on the subjects, and often they do not have the help of students because
they do not want to enable them to get well learned. That's why some students can't and don't
want to go to high school. Not only does poverty hinder students from having access to
Ensure that everybody has a high level of education and numeracy, that others have a wide
variety of problem-solving skills and that others have technical skills in the world class would
require new curricula, improved teachers' services, and learning practices to encourage higher
cognitive abilities.
The Philippines primarily needs to determine its educational problems. It is not only for
them, but also for the entire community that the country needs to start developing its academia.
Training supports and enhances people's lives in the country's economy. Education again, since
nobody can take it from you, is the greatest investments in the future.

to the transition to the social category of one's status. The first, however, refers to
the upward and downward mobility of the class or rank of the person. The transfer

2. How can inequality affect the promotion of human rights and the common good?
- Upholding human rights and the common good is a problem for inequality.
Inequality tends to give rise to civil rights and the common good only to the
wealthy and powerful. Jang Geun Won's "Law is for rule of the poor, not for the
ruler." Examples of circumstances relating to this are: it is easier for wealthy and
influential people to move forward with poor people's human rights and accuse
the poor so they can use their wealth as a ransom or bribery. For me, there are
three publics, wealthy, comfortable and poor. The rich and the affluent are heard
and taken care of when they speak up. No one dares to hear or even consider poor
when the weak speak up. We buried the civil rights of the oppressed and the

- Functional theory assumes that inequalities and social roles are unavoidable and
beneficial. Significant social roles need further schooling and should also earn
additional incentives. Under this view, socioeconomic disparity and social
theory considers disparity as the product of less influential groups with superior
power. You think social injustice inhibits and impedes social change because
those in power repress the oppressed to protect the status. Within the modern
world the influence of culture, our thinking, values, opinions, world-views, rules
and aspirations are the key reason for this work of conquest.
