Is education primarily the
result of influences other than school?
When hearing the word education, most people
will picture graduation, sitting in the classroom or basically something that’s
only in the school ,but in reality you can get education from almost everywhere
not only in school. Education is not only what is taught in school but also
the knowledge that gain by doing extracurricular activities.[1]
We can see so many good examples of people
who succeeded in life such as Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Bill Gates, Steve
Jobs or even Mark Zuckerberg and many more. None of them complete the full
education from the school. However, they were successful in later life, even
though their primary source of education wasn't school[2]. Going to school is just one of the way you
can get education but there are also many other various ways such as internet
and library,you don’t need to be sitting in class listening to what you don’t
even understand but instead you go to the library searching and reading
something that you’re interested in you will gain knowledge even more than getting education in school.
Educations come in many forms for example
that I experienced by myself ; playing basketball ,I learn how to dribble shoot
or ray up the ball from the books and internet but those things almost didn’t
help at all .What I should’ve done was just go practice in the court not just
sitting on the chair reading something that you can only imagine how is it
going to be like but instead just go in make some mistakes and learn from them
to make things better next time .
Education is something that you can get from
anywhere and anyone since you were born you educated yourself how to walk speak
,also you learn from your own parents when you are in teenager age maybe you
join football team and try to gain full education of football by practicing
every day , the
classes alone in school would not be sufficient.
