Education is more than just a store of knowledge; it a process of learning which never really ends.
Most people have confused education with just being within the four walls of a school, and acquiring some knowledge. Although this is not far from the truth, education goes beyond that.
When education influences, choices and judgements, then the goal is achieved. In other words, until knowledge finds it's way to the decisions people make, until it affects the way people think, until this process of learning called education, helps you build your critical thinking skill, education has not taken place.
What then is education in summary? Education is not teaching the mind what to think, it is teaching the mind how to think. This is a continuous process, and every authority involved in the development of young minds, is a team player. Let's raise intellectuals who would solve future problems, let's expand the scope of education.
Happy International Day of Education!
