Education is the gradual process of meaning making and acquiring “knowledge.” One views the world through his or her own set of lenses or filters, from his or her own perspective, and the mind of the learner attempts to connect new information to existing schema to make new connections.

We begin to realize, through knowledge, details that we learn in isolation are actually interconnected. Education can be intentional or unintentional and can occur everywhere and at any time. Education is greatly influenced by affective factors and social context. It has both internal and external value, both to a person and to all of society.

Document C is a speech made by a young African-American boy who is first in his class, during 1819, in New York City.

I remember as a kid, how my parents use to take me to the library every month pick out a book. My parents would let me take at least two to three books home with me and they would read to me every other night before bed. When I first started elementary school, my parents learned that I had a learning inefficiency. That was when I was put into to the special program with Ms. Quick. When I started to progress in school my parents were literally forcing me to read a book every other day. As started getting older, I started to not to like reading because it was always little things that I would struggle with but my parents didn’t give up on me. From third to fifth grade, my parents were making me read chapter books; every night before bed my parents made me read a story to them for thirty minutes and afterwards, they would ask me to give an explanation on what I read to them. By the time I started junior high, I was a great reader. From then on, I had no problem with my reading abilities.

From these definitions we infer that education is the process of developing a human being into a person who is reasonably informed about the world in which they live. This process enables them to model their lives according to the aims and objectives set forth by the cultural and ideological entity of which they are a part.

Reading is something that is taught to everyone in their early childhood, the time I learned to read I was very fond of books. I loved to read novels to myself and to read them out loud to my sister. I like reading action, thriller, historical fiction, and mystery. During my early childhood we would have challenges of reading such as wrapped up and reading, golden dragon. These were reading challenges for students to read 20-25 specific grade novels during the school year and at the end you got a party if you read at least 5-10. I used to love reading and at that time I would read at least 20 books because I wanted to go to the party and win something with the lottery tickets I got. My childhood was fulI of reading, even if I read because I was greedy and I read because of the party, it still improved my reading level. As I grew and grew my reading

The term ‘education’ can mean many things. An education is the collective knowledge a person has, but what does an education mean? Although an education can be paid for, no one can physically give you an education, so it is not a gift. There are societal situations where an education is a necessity, but not many globally. Education is a tool to be utilized differently in every part of the world. Knowledge is power, but some knowledge is more powerful depending on your region. If you are part a primitive tribe in New Guinea, a person that is considered to be educated may be illiterate. Whereas in America, an illiterate person would have trouble functioning at all in society. Education is a tool that is to be

Education is the process of learning that can take place anywhere and at any time. I believe that creativity and activity as well as books and lessons are essential to the learning process. As a teacher, I hope to instill in the children a sense of knowledge and self-worth that will remain with them throughout their lives.

What do you think about when you hear the United States of America? What comes to your head? You might be thinking about the big American dream, which is going to school, studying to become a doctor or anything you want and making millions. When our parents came to America they were thinking about what was best for our future in education and finance. That is why they came here. So would you think that you or your parents would be devastated to come to realize that the US is 14th in the world when it comes to education? I am not saying that is bad by any means. However, if you are the richest country in the world, that also means you have the most resources so there should be no reason to be 14, you should be 1st, or at least in the top 5.

Economics is what our world revolves around. Many people don't realize how much we can relate it to our everyday lives. Such as the education system. When having a child people have to think about what kind of education they want for them. K-12 goes off a certain system, where you live at in your county depends on where you go to school. This is somewhat a monopoly. Based on where you live, is based upon the type of schools your child will be attending in the public school system. You have no choice in this unless you are able to afford at least a thousand dollars a month for one child to go to a private school. This leaves no options for the people who want good for the kids yet, aren't able the extra weight of a private school. The public school system has the “exclusive possession control of the supply or trade in a commodity or service.”(thebalence.com 1)

I like a quote from a speech of John F. Kennedy and it says, “ My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” I can change that to, “My fellow Students, ask not what your education can do for you, ask what can you do for your education.” How can I define education? My definition of my schooling can be described as “harsh” and “mediocre”. I think learning is the most important part a human being can have. Someone without an education can be easily be deceived.

The Cambridge dictionary defines education in British English as the process of teaching or learning, especially in a school or college, or the knowledge that you get from this. It is clear this definition divide into two parts, one is on the behalf of educators and the educated, the other emphasizes the result of the process that knowledge is obtained. The former focus on the activity of the teacher delivering knowledge our students receiving knowledge while the latter counts the result of this activity.
