Topic 2: The Concept of Education

Here, I explored the meaning and purpose of education from various philosophical, social, and cultural perspectives. Education was described not only as the acquisition of knowledge and skills but also as a process of personal and societal transformation.

I learned that in TVET, education should aim at developing the learner holistically — intellectually, morally, and practically — preparing them for both the workplace and responsible citizenship.

This topic helped me appreciate that true education is not just training for employment but an ongoing process that shapes character, values, and lifelong learning attitudes.
