Changes are noted in the curriculum to reflect what people view or expect the education system to

attain for the society. This means that the content in the subject areas have to be tailored towards
meeting the demands from the society.

Social change also affects the approach towards teaching. Changes in the curriculum have affected the
time frame within which people are educated in the system. The instructional methods have to be in
congruence with the changing patterns of life in the society. More practical approaches are being
adopted to ensure that the products of education meet the demands of the industries and other
employment areas. Cultural diversity in countries affects the education system.

With the increasing demands from the society longer schooling years have resulted. The burden of
content has been put on the learners and the teachers. For the curriculum to meet the social demands
coverage has to be increased and this has affected the learners who have to struggle with the increased
content. The teachers have to struggle to complete content coverage within the same time frame as in
the past. Changes in the society have led to increased demand for education. This has called for
expansion of existing educational facilities to accommodate the populations.

Education gives or provides knowledge, skills, and training, it also indulges new ideas or thoughts and
attitudes (passion) among the youths of the society. Many of the ancient old traditional policies and
absolute (exact) values stop or reduce progress, with Education (literacy) can be improved in the favor of
informative or enlightened ideas. (no internet, or gadgets to use for information all was manual and
books)

If education is the result of social change, then it signifies that social change has generated a desire for
education.

become more comfortable and the standard of living has also enhanced. It can be verified that effective
and potential education may bring some great ideas into the minds of students

Conclusion
Social change means how our attitudes, customs, beliefs, and values changes with the changes in
science, technology, politics, and other various elements in society. Poverty and Backwardness of the
people (in mass) are mainly due to ignorance and illiteracy. So, education can help them to come out of
this miserable situation. The basic or fundamental schedule of education was prepared or constructed as
a way or measure of social change. While studying, we discovered all the important components or parts
of a dynamic plan to change or improve society.

Education and Social change are interlinked or interconnected with one another. If any one of them
changes or gets impacted, then the other will also get impacted. So always there is a need for literate
and educated people for the development of society or country.

quality of life and the progress or development of our society. Therefore, education comes before social
change.
