In China, education began wholeheartedly with Mencius: "A gentleman has three pleasures, but the king of the world does not exist. Parents exist, brothers have no chance, and they are happy; Yang is worthy of the sky, regardless of people, but also happy; If you are educated by talents in the world, you will have three pleasures. " Xu Shen explained in Shuo Wen Jie Zi that "teaching should be applied from the top and effective from the bottom"; "Educate, foster children to be good".

In the west, the word education comes from the Latin word education, and the prefix "e" means "out", meaning "out" or "out", which means that something originally hidden in the body and mind is triggered by some means.

Scholars in different countries have different understandings of the definition of education.

Spencer of Britain said: "Education prepares for future life."

Cai Yuanpei of China said: "Education is to help the educated develop their abilities, improve their personality and do their part for human culture, rather than making the educated a special tool."

American writer Tara said: "Education means gaining different perspectives and understanding different people, experiences and history. Get an education, but don't let your education become arrogant. Education should be the expansion of ideas, the deepening of empathy and the broadening of horizons. "
