How essential education is
Education is a purposeful activity directed at achieving certain aims,such as transmitting knowledge or fostering skills and character traits.
These aims may include the development of understanding, rationality, kindness and honesty.
Some theorists require that education results in an improvement of the students while others prefer value-neutral definition of the term.
In a slightly different sense, education may also refer,not to the process, but to the product of this process:The mental states and dispositions processed by educated people.
Today, educational goals increasingly encompass new ideas such as liberation of learners, skills needed for modern society, empathy and complex vocational skills.
