Hi Everyone,

I just kept wondering, what should true Education should look like?

Is Education a must?

Those it determines ones life?

Can we cope without it?

Well above all I think many among us is really confuse about this i am about to ask.

What is the difference between EDUCATION and LEARNING?

Some would say there is a difference while many would say it's the same thing.
But for those who agreed it is the same thing, I would love to ask what EDUCATION truly means, because I think it's high time we have stopped deceiving ourselves, I believe everyone is learning even at the point of death!....But if everyone one is learning to survive in life, Who is then an EDUCATED PERSON is it a person academically learned? Or It's who?.....I know it's very difficult for I myself to answer such question but I think this is the first problem the education I know is facing, Many were brought up with the mind set of becoming a BILLIONAIRE If only you can finish up with school, but at the end of the day , many educated being are out the without a job to earn a living from. How do we address that?

But as a little boy that I am, Growing up in a country in the THIRD WORLD, I don't think ACADEMICS is a guaranteed option...please I don't want anyone to misquote me. I never said ACADEMICS is not good, but in the THIRD WORLD where I find myself, I think a wise one shouldn't depend on his or her ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE, cos most time it doesn't pay here in the THIRD WORLD, but it adds value to one self and adds professionalism to ones work. In the world I find myself, you can't just compare a DOCTOR to a FOOTBALLER.Now compare them....... What do i need to become a DOCTOR?......What do i need to become a FOOTBALLER?.......Who earns the most as an individual?

With this little have said, I just need people to reason with.........What is really affecting our life of EDUCATION?

Please i would really love to hear what you, you and you would have to say about this, Probably the story could be the otherwise in your WORLD just lets know what and how it is in your WORLD....Thanks.

Find the post cool and educative?..........kindly ......UPVOTE RESTEEM and COMMENT!

Bye for now!

Great question, some serious issues you put forward. I think in many cases you can achieve great things without an education and learn many things by yourself or from others, but not necessarily from a school.

However if I go see a doctor who is going to perform surgery on me, I would want him to be educated and graduated by a recognized institution. I want to know if this doctor is fit for taking my life in his hands.

Also if an architect is going to build a big housing project, then these houses have to be safe for the people living in them. The skills and methods of the architect must be tested and fail-safe.

It could be that other methods of schooling/education will come where people can learn in other ways then we now know. Perhaps one could study to become a doctor outside of the university and just proof his skills by taking tests?
