The world is getting more and more competitive. You don’t have to look further than the skyrocketing college graduation rates to see that more students (and parents) are seeking further education and hoping to land better jobs when they graduate.
Many parents are no longer content with the education provided by the schools systems to be enough for their child, and instead are looking for ways to expand learning opportunities in new and creative ways.
This infographic shares 10 Ways to Give Your Child an Academic Advantage. These are tools that would be used to supplement a child’s learning to really give them a leg up in their education.

Really visual infographic, liked “animal week” idea, just liked the idea of ​​searching for Crafts with Pinterest. And this is the coolest http://www.khanacademy.org/. Do not know about the other tips, but it certainly will be using.

I have young children and I believe redshirting your child (waiting until your child is older to start them in kindergarden) give a kid an incredible advantage throughout their education.

Hey Brian,
I think 28% now have degrees both because more people are seeking degrees, but also because it seems like its easier to get a degree these days. Just about anyone can get some kind of degree which is almost making them worthless. I still think in the end it will always be more “who you know” than “what you know”. That’s why I think the social aspects of education are just as important as the academic sides.
