The Aim of Education
What I love about this is that Lou stresses that it's not about the amount of education a person has but how they use it. We have to encourage students to want to know more and how to use what they know.
Motivational Power Quote
The Aim of Education
“The Great aim of education is not knowledge but action.”
Hebert Spencer 1820 – 1903, English Philosopher
As I see it . . . . . . .
The aim of education
Most people will tell you in surveys that it’s knowledge . . . . But knowledge by itself has limited value to the person that has the knowledge.
The real purpose of education is to transfer to knowledge to the student (the Lender) . . . . and to inspire the student into action to use their education and knowledge with a purpose.
Education will have varying affects on the student some will accumulate far more knowledge then other students . . . .
The key is not the amount the education the student accumulates. But in how the student uses their education. The student will be measured by how they apply their knowledge and in the benefits that the student receives from their education on a daily basic.
A highly motivated person will take their education . . . . and apply it with the determination to maximize it into a successful career. While others, will waste their education and turn it into minimal results.
The aim of education . . . . is to inspire the student to turn education into positive activities and use it.
