The Dimensions of Agricultural Education
As a future professional I would like to focus on the context of the Scope of the Agricultural education. This discipline shows the sole task of the farming education. Agricultural education refers to the technical study of the principles and the modes of teaching and studying as they are based on agriculture. As a future professional, I am aware that the agricultural discipline is important as it is clear that we need agriculture so as to survive, if one has to eat they need agriculture. The agricultural education program is essential in the American community as its courses ranges from a variety of programs. I well understand the importance of the education and learning it in meaningful and genuine ways. The agricultural programs help me to discover my potential future career in agriculture. As I attend meetings based on the discipline, engage in contests and attend the agricultural educational conference, I make new friends that also motivate me in my future career (Barrick, 1988).
Through the dimensions in the program, I am able to help other students make partnerships with what they are studying in school and the outer domain. I am spending more time to advance my education in agriculture as I also spend more time with other students and ensuring they have real agricultural experience and the community so as to up surge the sense of the responsibility of the public. In addition to the programs in the discipline, the education is more than cows, sows and plows thus I focus mainly on the actual, permanent education for my future goal. I have also learned valuable life skills though the agricultural programs based on the practical projects both in the school and the community (Barrick, 1988).
I have also developed and advanced the agricultural education programs that are now used as the models of the discipline chapters in the whole of America. This has encouraged me as a future professional to work together with the sanctioned and the resourceful learners to the ever changing domain to overcome the emerging agricultural challenges. As agriculture is the source of the America’s economy, we should be aware that without it we cannot survive, we ought to create sustainable prolific educational systems and research which should be passed down to the future professionals. The agricultural and education discipline is essential as it is the basis of the farming education with the footings of organic and material sciences, psychology and sociology (Barrick, 1988).
