The preparation which a study of the humanities can
provide stems from three
observations about education
in our world of accelerating
social and technological
change.
First, with the rate of change, we cannot hope to
train our student for specific
technologies. That kind of
vocational education is
obsolescent. By the time the
specific training will have been completed, the world
will have moved on. If our education consists of
narrow training, we will not
be prepared to change.
Second and paradoxically,
what our student desire from
their education is preparation for specific careers – business,
engineering, medicine,
computer programming and
the like, but we will not be
able to train them for a life-
long career. Their confronting the depressed job market
gives our students a certain
anxiety, but the solution they
seek in vocational training is
not sufficient. Third, we sense
in our students a narrow materialism, with the good
life defined in terms of
material comforts. Education
then means learning to do a
job which will make money. I
see in this definition a limiting sense of what
education and thus life offer,
a definition which excludes
joy and meaning. Our narrow
approach to the study of the
humanities responds to these three related problems. In our
changing, yet narrow world,
the teaching of the
humanities finds one
powerful justification – it
teaches student how to think.
What is the major weakness
of training students for
specific technologies?
A. It trains students for only one type of career
B. It helps students to acquire money later when they are
employed
C. It makes them anxious for a job in the market
D. It cannot help students to cope with the rapid changes
