The Road Not Taken Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel bothAnd be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I couldTo where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, just as fair,And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally layIn leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!Yet knowing how way leads on to wayI doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sighSomewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

DEFINITION OF EDUCATION
• This is the process of preparing oneself to meet the challenges of life through acquisition of relevant knowledge, skills and affections (attitudes), that will not only positively influence one’s destiny but also that of the society/environment.
• Education makes you useful to yourself and to your society.
• Learning on the other hand, is the acquisition of new knowledge. Anything that changes one’s experience is learning.

Cntd…• Education is primarily divided into TWO(2) sub-
groups:
1.Basic Education – which provides the foundation for Tertiary Education which is its superstructure. The two are one in whole.
Provides the tools for the acquisition of knowledge, skills and affections.
2.Higher Education-Here is where knowledge is generated, skills are refined and affection (attitudes) is actualized through high level teaching, research, innovation and outreach activities. 404/15/23 10:04 AM

TERTIARY AND UNIVERSITYA COMPARISON:
• Other Tertiary Institutions of Higher learning are designed for specific programmes and trades.
• The programmes offered here are vocational(skills and training needed for a particular job/profession) and, are, by nature, skills oriented(knowledge and ability to do something well).
• Graduates are easily employable - they put to use the knowledge discovered. This makes employing such graduates easy

Cntd…
• The programmes (Courses) in Other Tertiary Institutions are mainly two years- suitable for those who lack resources for a long stay at a University (programmes are cheaper).
• Lecturers are highly trained in specific skills and in how to deliver (methodology)

Universities focus on discovery, storage and dissemination of knowledge, through high quality teaching, research and outreach.
Universities offer a broader curricular with more content

IMPLICATION OF 3 PRINCIPAL SUBJECTS & 2 SUBSIDIARIES
Competition gets stifferCombinations are tightened while the list is enlargedCandidates must pass well, the principal subjectsNo excuse of passing any two subjects like it has beenCut off points at university will lower to a maximum of 54.5
instead of 57.5 but competition will increase since every one will be judged on the same yardstick (3princ & 2 subs)
Public Universities will revise & adjust the requirements as may be necessary with few changes. Many course requirements will remain with only a few changes in programmes like Arch.
No room for extra points from 4th subject (Principal)
