It sounds like what they want to do is write an essay from extensive personal experience (presumably the topic of the essay is being critical of the education system), but since that isn’t accepted they have to find articles about the same topic. IMO there is nothing wrong with writing an essay based on personal experience.

That was my read too: because anecdotal evidence is untrustworthy, now they need to legitimatize what they’ve observed firsthand.
Plus someone has to be the first person to write about it.
