What is learning? What is education?
First, the essence of learning is change.

Change is to replace the original thing with something new. The changes brought by learning are relatively lasting and can be divided into internal changes and external changes. Changes in thinking patterns; The change of personality belongs to the internal change. The change of behavior habits is an external change.

The change of learning is unnatural and automatic. In other words, the maturity of the body, the psychedelic caused by drugs, and the change of personality are not the changes brought about by learning.

Second, the essence of education is change.

Mencius' sentence "Educate the world's elite" embodies the concept of "education" first put forward by China, and it was officially named China Education. The word western education comes from Latin educare, which means "education".

Both Chinese and western education are social practice activities that have an impact on others' body and mind, and the impact brings about changes. This change was initiated by others and passively accepted by the educated. However, if the educated study independently, they will become self-learners.

However, in the process of learning, if you learn through books, online new media or other scientific and technological means, you are still receiving education through another invisible way.

No matter what form of education, as long as it is effective, the final result will have an impact on the body and mind of natural individuals, perhaps not a direct behavior change, but this change must exist.
