The purpose of education is put forward by people and belongs to the category of consciousness, and its form is subjective. However, the educational purpose put forward by people has its realistic basis and social roots, and its content is objective. When people stipulate the purpose of education, they must take certain objective existence and its development law as the premise and basis.
Material production level. The level of material production is the absolute condition and eternal foundation for the existence and development of education. Once people stop material production, the material foundation of human society will collapse and the ties of human social relations will collapse. Of course, it is impossible to talk about the existence and development of educational activities.
It can be said that the development level of material production directly determines the material conditions that society can provide for education and the amount of personal education time, which fundamentally determines the possibility of social members' development. It can be seen that the development level of social productive forces is the ultimate determinant of educational purposes.
Productivity is the ability of human beings to engage in material production, and human beings are the most active and important factors in productivity. People engaged in material production not only need certain physical strength, but also need certain intelligence, scientific and cultural knowledge and labor skills. However, people's intelligence should be developed by education, and labor skills and various production knowledge should be obtained by education.
The productive forces formed by human beings in production practice should be accumulated bit by bit and passed down from generation to generation. Only through education can they be realized. It can be seen that the productive forces in a certain period always put forward their own requirements for the training of workers according to their own development level. ?
Production relations and the resulting political and ideological relations. ? The relations of production and the resulting political and ideological relations play a direct decisive role in the purpose of education. The demand for education in any society is always generated and restricted by certain social relations. Therefore, a certain educational purpose must be determined by the needs of material life or material economic interests under certain conditions.
In class society, different classes have different educational purposes due to different economic and political interests, among which the educational purpose of the ruling class reflects the economic and political interests of the ruling class and occupies a dominant position among many educational purposes. Characteristics of the physical and mental development of the educated. ? Education always points directly to the individual educated at a certain stage of development. In order to achieve the expected results of the physical and mental development of the educated, the makers of educational purposes have to consider the possibility of individual physical and mental development.
