Abstract:
Education plays a very important role for society. It is an essential element for the civilization of
the society. Not only does it help us develop a healthy atmosphere around us, but also brings
forth an advanced community. As a matter of fact, everything that we have created today is
based on the knowledge that we have obtained throughout our life by means of education. This
has assisted scientists in inventing equipment and devices, which has resulted in the
advancement of technology today. The more developed the society becomes, the more necessary
education is for everyone in the society.
Education is absolutely beneficial for society on the whole. However, we need an education
system that may eradicate illiteracy and may provide the layman an access not only to basic
education but also to higher and technical education (Jayson de Lemon, 2014). The nature of
knowledge is not an object, but a series of flows; it is a process, not a product. The idea of
acquiring knowledge, as a series of truths, is obsolete (Downes, 2009). Education can be defined
as the process of facilitating learning or the acquisition of knowledge, skills, values, beliefs, and
habits. Education frequently takes place under the guidance of educators, but learners may also
educate themselves (Dewey, 1944).
