Basic concepts about education

Education is a systematic process of acquiring knowledge and continuous practice to develop the full potential of the individual. The education process encourages the full development of an individual's inherent qualities and helps him acquire the skills needed to become a productive member of society.

Education in the general sense is the acquisition of skills or knowledge. The Bengali word education is derived from the root 'shas', which means to rule or give advice. On the other hand, the English word education comes from the Latin word educare or educatum, which means to bring out or develop the inner potential.

The word education originates from the Sanskrit word "shas" dhatu. In general it can be said that education is the desired, desired and positive change in human behavior. Throughout the ages, different thinkers have defined education in different ways. Again, with the passage of time, there has been a change in the definition or concept and method of education.

 Grammatically in English, the word "education" comes from the Latin ēducātiō (meaning to breed and nurture), ēducō (meaning I teach, I train) which is related to the homonyms ēdūcō (meaning I bring forth, I raise) and Derived from Dōcō (meaning I lead, I direct).

Education is a lifelong process. Humans learn from birth to the moment before death. So the benefits of education are different. For example:

 Formal education

 Formal education takes place in a structured environment with the specific purpose of teaching students. Typically, formal education takes place in a school environment where multiple students in a classroom require a trained and certified teacher to teach a variety of subjects. Most schools design a standardized model through which all educational choices in the system are governed. Such choices include curriculum, organizational model, design of physical learning spaces (such as classrooms), student-teacher interactions, assessment methods, class size, pedagogical activities, and more.

Preschool education

 Preschools provide education for children from about three to seven years of age depending on the country when students enter primary education. These are also known as nursery schools and kindergartens. In the United States, where kindergarten is the term used for early education. Kindergarten offers a child-centered preschool curriculum for ages three to seven. Here mainly efforts are made to reveal the physical, intellectual and moral nature of children.

 Initial editing

 Primary education is formal and structured which comprises the first five to seven years. Generally, primary education covers years five to six and ages six to eight, although there are sometimes differences between countries. Globally, about 89% of children between the ages of six and twelve are enrolled in primary education, and this proportion continues to rise. Most countries have committed to implementing the program "Primary Education for All" by 2015, driven by UNESCO, and many countries have made it mandatory. The division between primary and secondary education is somewhat different, but usually occurs around the age of eleven or twelve. Some education systems have separate secondary schools, which transition to the final stage of secondary education up to the age of fourteen. Schools imparting primary education are primarily known as primary schools. Primary schools are again divided into infant and junior schools.

higher ed

 Higher education is the third level, or postsecondary education, a non-compulsory educational level that follows school completion such as high school or secondary school. Thirdly, it includes vocational education and training, including undergraduate and postgraduate education. Colleges and universities mainly provide higher education. Collectively these are known as higher divisions. A person who has completed higher education usually has a certificate, diploma, or academic degree.

 Higher education usually involves a degree-level or degree qualification. In most developed countries the population (up to 50%) now enters higher education at some point in their lives. Higher education is very important to the national economy, both as an important industry, and the rest of the trained and educated workforce as a source of the economy.

 University education encompasses teaching, research, and social service activities, and includes both the undergraduate level (sometimes referred to as upper division) and the graduate (or postgraduate) level (sometimes referred to as graduate school). A university is usually made up of several colleges. Universities in the United States can be private and independent, such as Yale University; State-governed, such as the Pennsylvania system of higher education, both public and state-controlled; or independent, but may receive funding from the state, such as the University of Virginia. Now there are several career specific courses readily available to students through the internet

special edition

 Those with disabilities in the past were often not eligible for public education. Education for disabled children was often denied by doctors or special tutors. These early physicians (people like Ettered, Segoin, Howe, Galadelle) laid the foundation for specialty education today. They focus on individual and functional skills. In its early years, special education was offered only to people with severe disabilities, but recently it has been opened to all.

Competition acts as a major factor in the education system. Global or national education system creates a competitive spirit to present itself to the next generation. In this case scholarship is one of the criteria. In developed countries like England and Singapore, the special education system selects special students and exempts them from the cost of education. The best student is determined by grades, creating a spirit of competition among students in academic results.
