The goal of live

Nowadays, many students think that education is not an important thing in their live. There many students that stop their education level in the senior high school only. There are many assumption says that school in the next level or university is a waste time and waste cost. Perhaps, the people think that senior high school is enough to find a good job in the future. But in fact, there are much unemployment is the people who graduated from senior high school only.
Firstly, it is not a good idea if we do not increase our knowledge and skill by getting education at school. In the new era of the world that we call as globalization world, we need to be able to compete with other. We have to show our capability to the public in getting a trusty from other people. Sometimes, people just look at our level of education for any reason of responsibility. It means that, high education is having a good responsibility too. For this reason, we have to change the status of our level in term of education, whether it is college degree or more.
Furthermore, there many company and government instance that need a worker that graduated from university. They need the people who are professional and have a good quality. In other word, the high level of education has more opportunity to find a good job, than the people who just graduated from senior high school. We can see in the newspaper and other media, there are a lot of job vacancies that provided for the people who are college degree.
In the philosophic of our ancestral, we know that we have to learn as long as we can for the better live. Education is the source of a good future. We have to change our mind set that school is waste thing. There is no reason for the entire students to stop their education in the standard or senior high school only.

Collaborative learning

Collaborative learning is a situation in which two or more people learn or attempt to learn something together. More specifically, collaborative learning is based on the model that knowledge can be created within a population where members actively interact by sharing experiences and take on asymmetry roles. Put differently, collaborative learning refers to methodologies and environments in which learners engage in a common task where each individual depends on and is accountable to each other. Collaborative learning is heavily rooted in views that there exists an inherent social nature of learning which is shown through his theory of zone of proximal development. Often, collaborative learning is used as an umbrella term for a variety of approaches in education that involve joint intellectual effort by students or students and teachers. Thus, collaborative learning is commonly illustrated when groups of students work together to search for understanding, meaning, or solutions or to create an artifact or product of their learning. Further, collaborative learning redefines traditional student-teacher relationship in the classroom which results in controversy over whether this paradigm is more beneficial than harmful. Collaborative learning activities can include collaborative writing, group projects, joint problem solving, debates, study teams, and other activities. The approach is closely related to cooperative learning.
