Education is a tool that can change the way of thinking and acting towards a
goal that has meaningful value in life with individually, society and state. It is
a conscious and planned effort that creates an atmosphere of learning and
learning process so that students actively develop their potential to have
spiritual strength, self-control, personality, intelligence, noble character and
the skills needed by themselves, society, nation and state. With the help of
education, the pattern of thinking is instilled, instilling values, developing
self- potential and forming personality, so that it can be transformed from
generation to generation for the sake of human civilization in the life of
society, nation and state. Education is a lifelong process which brings
behavioral changes throughout life. The maximum result of;any education is
to bring changes in individuals and to the society. Therefore education is
considered as the essential tool for the development of an individual. It
includes various factors like culture, socio-economic status, geographical
conditions, religious, political, social and spiritual situations. If an individual
gains experience through all these factors are said to be educated. So,
education occurs through experience or interaction with the environment
which ultimately results in the modification of human behavior. Education
plays a vital role in changing the behavior of an individual according to the
need of the present situation. Hence it plays an important role in changing the
society. The new emerging trends in the society decide what a child should
learn, how to learn and who will bring these changes. These challenges can
be faced by the education and educational institution to transfer changes
because they reflect the need of the society.
