Who is the representative of the omnipotence of education?
Kant, Leibniz, Watson and helvetius.

The omnipotence of education is a view that exaggerates the role of education in human development and thinks that people are completely the product of education. Kant, a German philosopher, believes that the reason why people become human is entirely the result of education. The omnipotent theory of education generally ignores or denies the role of genetic quality and human subjective initiative in human development, and regards social environment and education as the decisive factors affecting human development.
