In the article he also said, "The function of education, therefore, is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. But education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society." I love every word in his article The Purpose of Education. As an educator I often think whether my master's degree is worthy in my daily practice, teaching young students in great needs. Dr. King concluded, "we must remember that intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character--that is the goal of true education." My two additional years of education has been showing me strategic ways to help my students grow academically and spiritually. I don't know anything about coding, but I believe your MBA will guide you in many ways during your life-long jouney for fulfilling purpose of education. I highly respect that you carry your MBA on your shoulder!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7788436612554636938.post-74088762859673214032013-02-25T10:33:10.264-08:002013-02-25T10:33:10.264-08:00Dr. King once said, "Education must also trai...Dr. King once said, "Education must also train one for quick, resolute and effective thinking."

Hence my exhortation not to discount each other but to learn from one another, including taking steps to actually learn a little more about other knowledge fields ... to become more whole and complete as an individual.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17641820415419583954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7788436612554636938.post-3620801075250611542013-02-19T14:44:06.687-08:002013-02-19T14:44:06.687-08:00A lot of what you wrote makes sense.

But i also think that "hacking" or learning to code is just another skill set - something which is valuable but not sufficient in bringing products to life (and mass market and success).<br />not everybody who knows coding is building great things. and a lot of coders are great at execution but not at knowing what the market needs or where it is going.<br />to make a successful product often requires a lot of different skills and while coding may be the foundation on which it stands (what do you do if you dont have a product ? :) ), there are a lot of other things which make or break it.Atishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01964932320627187102noreply@blogger.com
