The essence of education
Education is a purposeful social activity to cultivate people, which is the essential attribute of education and the fundamental feature that distinguishes education from other things. In other words, educational activities have a purpose, so it shows one of its characteristics: consciousness. We can understand this sentence from three aspects. First, education is to cultivate people, that is to say, education is a unique social phenomenon of human beings, and there is no education phenomenon in the animal kingdom.
Education is a purposeful activity, while aimlessness, unconsciousness or instinct are not education. For example, by chance, the paper under the magnifying glass was lit in the sun, and the educated learned the physical knowledge of convex lens focusing and received education. This is not an educational activity, because it is not a purposeful process of cultivating the educated, but an aimless activity.
