Introduction to education:

Education (jiào, yù), a Chinese word, in a narrow sense refers to specially organized school education, and in a broad sense refers to social practice activities that affect people's physical and mental development. It comes from Mencius' Mencius with all my heart, "Educating the world's talents", and the western education source is Latin educare, which means "educare". The logical starting point of education is naturally the emergence of human society. The transformation from apes to humans is due to productive labor, and apes gradually formed a main mechanism with brain and hand as the core.

The brain can think and the hands can operate, which makes people different from ordinary animals and become "advanced animals". With the subject mechanism, it is possible to become a subject with practical cognitive ability, and human beings can upgrade themselves to the subject of understanding and transforming the objective world, thus turning the objective world into the object of human transformation and understanding. Understanding and transforming the objective world requires subjective ability. Human society is a form of existence created by human beings in social practice.
