What is the knowledge and understanding about education?
Education should be the teaching and dissemination of social culture. Social culture, including art and science, should include three levels of content. The first level refers to high-level culture, that is, abstract and intangible, such as social psychology, aesthetics, value, etc.

The second level refers to those concrete from the first level, such as political power and its institutions. Although they can't see the concrete existence, they can actually feel the existence of its structure and activities.

The third level refers to the superficial culture, that is, the culture of tangible objects or materials. Simply speaking, it is spiritual culture, spiritual materialized culture and material culture. The purpose of education is to educate people, in fact, to make people accept all kinds of useful knowledge, so as to absorb and melt this knowledge and make it directly act on society, or to sublimate new knowledge on the basis of this knowledge, that is, to discover and invent.

The former is like a physical change, and the person who accepts it is like a container for things. A few things are still the same, but in a different place, some miscellaneous things are probably what we often call practical talents-skilled or skilled talents; The latter is similar to a chemical reaction, which produces different and other things. Such talents can master the first-class culture well and easily form their own unique ideas, concepts and research methods. This is the creative talent.

The cultural influence of a country and a nation in the world is mainly the influence of first-class culture and creative talents. The highly developed nervous system of human beings is the material basis and prerequisite for the emergence and development of education. It provides complete thinking functions such as feeling, memory, association, imagination and reasoning, which makes people's consciousness influence and spread each other.

Extended data

The only feature of macro education is "focusing on people's quality and ability", which shows that judging whether an activity is education is not the result. In reality, not all educational activities can achieve the expected results, and some even fail.

However, some activities, such as research activities and publicity activities, can affect people's quality and ability, but they are not recognized as educational activities. When people hold different positions and pay attention to people's quality and ability, they can look at people's quality and ability from both positive and negative aspects, develop and strengthen some people's quality and ability positively, and weaken and restrain some people's quality and ability negatively.

People's qualities and abilities can be divided into congenital and acquired. Innate, like other animals, is created by the long-term evolution of nature. What is obtained can be divided into two situations, one is obtained or realized unintentionally; Secondly, it was deliberately made by people. Macro-education summarizes all activities deliberately carried out for people's quality and ability.
