What is the origin of community education?
Community education originated in Denmark in the19th century, and was originally a community education in the form of adult education. After World War II, community education has become an international education form, and gradually moves towards an integrated education form in which schools, society and families serve and benefit from each other.

Community education is a variety of educational activities that use the educational and cultural resources of the community, face all citizens of the community, and promote the development of people and communities in the community. Community education is the product of social development and changes of the times.

Educational development:

The flexibility and adaptability of community education has shown its advantages in the modernization of education, the popularization of general education, the development of higher education and the opportunities for more people to receive higher education, vocational education and job-transfer training, and it has been recognized by people, and will still play a huge potential in this regard in the future.

We should also pay attention to community education to meet the educational needs of immigrants and unemployed people, and educate the elderly. Floating population is a huge group among the objects of community education. Their cultural quality and vocational skills need to be improved, and their knowledge of city life needs to be better understood so that they can become qualified citizens. Community education is promising in this respect.

With the deepening of enterprise reform, more and more laid-off workers are eager to change jobs. Coupled with the influx of new laborers into the labor market, the employment pressure of the whole society is becoming increasingly severe. Community education can adjust the psychology of unemployed people and enhance their psychological endurance. Strengthening vocational skills training and increasing employment competitiveness can also play a great role.
