There have been lots of discussions about education. As for whether people get educated easier now, ideas vary. Some think that people have difficulties in education now, while others hold that it's more convenient to go to schools nowadays. Which opinion is reasonable, however, can be subjective and relative. From my perspective, it's easier to get educated now than past.
There are new technologies now. People have long believed technologies have nothing to do with the education as the teachers and students are the key. However, many have now realized this opinion is incorrect. In fact, technologies help students a lot. When students listen to a lesson by multi-media, there will be sounds in their ears; video they can watch; subjects they can interact; all these things will stimulate their brain and inspire them. Therefore, they will learn effectively.
However, the advantages of today's education have never been about new technologies only.
More facilities are build for education. If a student want to look for materials to write a essay, he might have to being several places in order to collect them all in last century. However, nowadays, many libraries have converged the most of materials that students need. They just need to turn on the computer and then enter the key words. Thus they can find the materials easily. Therefore they don't have to go out or take time on seeking.
Admittedly, education nowadays is complex and people always hard to figure out. However, the problems will be solved gradually. People never accept new things at once but get used to them day by day.
To sum up, it is because of the new technologies and promoted facilities that it's easier to get educated nowadays. Clearly, we cannot emphasize the advantages of education today more.
