Going to school is all about being educated, but being educated is not all about going to school.

Some went to school, but still not educated.

Education expands beyond discipline or career, it extends to moral, social, intellectual and beyond!

You're educated when you know everything about something and something about everything.

Education is a life time journey and transition. It occurs everywhere (even in your dream). The level of an individuals exposure and williness would also influence the level of education.

An opened minded person is more likely to be more educated even if he / she did not attend formal school setting than a closed minded individual. School/ formal education is the societal standard for education. However, you can attend all the schools in the world without getting educated safe you're open minded and willing to learn, absorb,and you're not afraid to evolve into something/someone new. And that's where the statement he/she passed through the school but the school didn't pass through them.

Education is largely a function of information while schooling is a career.

Education is the formal training one received from an educational institute while informal training tends towards personal development which ultimately determines the degree of triumph.

Both formal and informal training constitute which makes a man educated. But I believe in personal development than qualification earn in school. Chief Obafemi Awolowo as an instance,
He didn't have much education but can be classified as an educated man. Where a man with cambridge certificate would behave naughtily.

Some of you try my time. You are like the blind leading the blind. Stop and listen to yourself. Have you never been told, "You need but learn one thing to be educated?"

Read the complete thread..."50% of the teachers are not qualified to teach."
