Education in a narrow sense refers to specially organized school education; Broadly speaking, it refers to social practice activities that affect people's physical and mental development.
Educators carry out purposeful, systematic and organized education and training on the mental development of educatees according to laws, regulations and industry norms, according to school conditions and professional titles, and use existing experience and knowledge to teach people, explain various phenomena, problems or behaviors for them, and improve their practical ability. Basically, it is to look at things with a relatively mature or rational thinking.
In it, people gradually moved from the touch of the senses to the state of cognitive understanding, forming a relatively perfect or rational conscious thinking. But at the same time, people have self-conscious thinking and their own sensory dimensions, so the conscious thinking of any education is not necessarily absolutely correct, but should understand the direction of their thinking in a perceptual way, as long as it does not deviate from the inherent essence of things.
Education is also a kind of thinking teaching, and people have another thinking tendency because of their own ideology. Therefore, education should educate people with the most objective and fair thinking, so that people's thinking will not be too biased, and gradually mature and rational because of the richness of thinking, so as to move towards the most rational self and have the most correct thinking cognition. This is the foundation of education.
