Why does education have the function of cultural transmission, renewal and creation?
First, education has the function of cultural transmission. Culture is created by human activities and acquired by individuals. We can't continue by heredity, we can only develop by transmission.

Second, education has the function of cultural choice. Cultural choice is the initial link of cultural change and development, which is manifested in the automatic choice or rejection of a certain culture.

Third, education has the function of cultural renewal and creation. Culture is created by human beings, and education not only has the function of transmitting existing culture, but also has the function of renewing and creating cultural development.

Fourthly, the openness of modern education also promotes cultural exchange and integration. Culture is the common way of people's thinking and behavior in a certain period and region. In this sense, any culture is regional and closed.

Extended data:

"Culture" and "education" are intrinsically and naturally related. Education and culture are mutually inclusive, mutually restrictive and interdependent, and serve as ends and means for each other.

Without culture, education, like machine production, cannot be carried out because of lack of raw materials and education; Without education, culture cannot be effectively inherited and developed.
