Re: [MTC Global] [The Last Big Debate of 2015] What's wrong with education for education's sake?

Purpose of Education is exploration and understanding which is vast and deep. as a child grows up in life and enters into next phase of life he needs certain skills so that he can earn too to be independent and sustain himself and dependent, grow and contribute back to society. education and employ ability skills are two different things. in recent times too much of focus on employbility has made these two things interchangeable..

Very relevant questions.  It is the responsibility of all the educationists of this country to think seriously and respond.

Are schools and universities meant to be making sure their students have the skills to succeed in an increasingly competitive jobs market, or is the purpose of schooling slightly more open ended? Does it need to have a purpose at all, beyond instilling knowledge - and a passion to keep learning - into pupils?

Should learning be about education for education's sake? Or should the focus be employability?
