Education encompasses teaching and learning specific skills, and also
something less tangible but more profound: the imparting of knowledge,
positive judgement and well-developed wisdom. Education has as one of its
fundamental aspects the imparting of culture from generation to
generation. Education means 'to draw out', facilitating realisation of
self-potential and latent talents of an individual. It is an
application of pedagogy, a body of theoretical and applied research
relating to teaching and learning and draws on many disciplines such as
psychology, philosophy, computer science, linguistics, neuroscience,
sociology and anthropology.
