The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The goal of education is not to increase the amount of knowledge but to create the possibilities for a child to invent and discover, to create men who are capable of doing new things.
The ultimate goal of the educational system is to shift to the individual the burden of pursing his own education. This will not be a widely shared pursuit until we get over our odd conviction that education is what goes on in school buildings and nowhere else.
I think the principal purpose of education is to allow each of us, when we become adults, to shape our own future.
Education enables people and societies to be what they can be.
The purpose of education is to make good human beings with skill and expertise... Enlightened human beings can be created by teachers.
If we want boys to succeed, we need to bring them back to education by making education relevant to them and bring in more service learning and vocational education.
If we create a generation of men who aren't getting an education, that's bad for women.
A system of education is not one thing, nor does it have a single definite object, nor is it a mere matter of schools. Education is that whole system of human training within and without the school house walls, which molds and develops men.
The goal of education is the advancement of knowledge and the dissemination of truth.
Education is not a tool for development - individual, community and the nation. It is the foundation for our future. It is empowerment to make choices and emboldens the youth to chase their dreams.
