Re: What is education?

I would state that the definition of Education is as follows:

1. The act or process of educating or being educated.
2. The knowledge or skill obtained or developed by a learning process.
3. A program of instruction at a specified kind or level eg. Driving.
4. The field of study that is concerned with the pedagogy of teaching and learning.


Also, Option Three would be the second most favourable had I to pick another.
The development of people for society is why education would be very important in Ireland, I'm sure this is the same in other countries, as no formal education leads to underdeveloped economy and society.

A Pre-Requisite for Employment is too specific to 2nd Level School, however, you could also learn to drive or do a home-study course that unaffects your current employment situation. And transfer from teacher to taught isn't too specific because you will always have a teacher with you learning any skill, I think. But even so, it's too specific in terms of the broad definition of Education.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
