A study of history reveals the importance given to education by different societies. No human being can live a cultured and disciplined life without some form of education. "Man is what education makes him".. To understand a person fully, it is essential to take his education into account. This topic touches me deeply, because of its impact on all our lives. Through this study, I seek to deepen the concepts I have acquired in my study of philosophy, by opening new paths of thought for me in this interesting area.
[...] It must be remembered remember that the ultimate end of education is that a man must be able to live a fully human life even in conditions of great difficulty. The end of such education only results in an education that is conducted for the prioritization of assets, and the discernment of means and purposes.

[...] The means of life that are transmitted through education must not be neglected, but they must be prioritized. When prioritized, we discern that there is a purpose in education that transcends all the motivations that we have just quoted. The earning of a livelihood only involves elements that are similar to the purpose of education. Children must not be taught thoughts, but concepts, so that they are encouraged to think. Plato has espoused this purpose, by saying that "True education is to be educated for one's own sake". [...]
