Education refers to the teaching and learning of knowledge, beliefs and skills. The word education, derived from the Latin educare meaning “to raise”, “to bring up”, “to train”. Recently a different verb; educere, meaning to “lead out” or “lead forth”, has been suggested as the root of education. However, the English word from this verb is “eduction”: drawing out, and bolsters the theory behind the function of education — to develop innate abilities and expand horizons. Please see Education Versus Eduction.

‘Pedagogy’ is the study of being a teacher and usually refers to strategies and styles of instruction. The word ‘pedagogy’ is from the Greek ped=child+gogy=to lead. Andragogy refers to adult education.

• “Education is the leading of human souls to what is best, and making what is best out of them.” ~ John Ruskin
• “If the education and studies of children were suited to their inclinations and capacities, many would be made useful members of society that otherwise would make no figure in it.” ~ Samuel Richardson
• “Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each.” ~ Plato
• “Education without values, as useful as it is, seems rather to make man a more clever devil.” ~ C. S. Lewis
• “That is what learning is. You suddenly understand something you've understood all your life, but in a new way.” ~ Doris Lessing
• “Learning is pleasurable but doing is the height of enjoyment.” ~ Novalis
• “Creative activity could be described as a type of learning process where teacher and pupil are located in the same individual.” ~ Arthur Koestler
• “A child educated only at school is an uneducated child.” ~ George Santayana
