What is Education?
Big word with a big meaning. Here are some more sub-questions(if there is such word).
1)Must you need a teacher by your side everyday to be educated?Or your parents will do?
2)Does education have to take place in school?
3)Or do you need pieces of paper that says "Certificate of education" to be educated?
Please share your thoughts with me--------PLEASE!!!!
Enough, here's my view:
What is the definition of Education? It is the act or process of acquiring general knowledge, developing the powers of reasoning and judgement, and generally of preparing oneself or others intellectually for mature life, according to dictionary.com (Can you understand this?)
That is why I think education basically means to expand your knowledge, develop good character(civilly and morally). However, education does not exactly have to be in school, it can happen everywhere, anytime, any place. Oh and most importantly, it can be about anything. Who will be doing the teaching? Not necessarily teachers but also your parents. After all, teachers are adults too! In fact everyone can educate, just on different things as long as they have the capability to do so. That brings me to my last point.(I sound like a debater don't I?) Certificates are just to show that you have been through the education system, but it does not mean that if you are not in the system, you are not educated. Have you heard of "home-schooling"?
Here are my views---what's yours?
