Essay-Education in education on education with multiple views, philosophies, practices, ideals and political involvements and with an historical overview of the attainment of knowledge.

About Literature:

Don Quixote (1605 and 1615), by Miguel de Cervantes (1547-1616), is a literary genious in his imaginations and the book has wonderfully formatted chapter headings which summarize the content. This essay vaguely attempts to be titled in like manner. It is not imaginations, however, that this essay is written.

Education is the main thrust. If one was to search education, the attempt would closely resemble the title of this essay, which for all practical purposes has been shortened, as the search for education in itself requires a doctorate in disambiguation.

Humor, like Cervantes' Quixote, is not intentional in this essay, as the essence is problematic of such a topic which has been annihilated by philo-psycho-hypo-pedagogical entrepenuers. Once these particular folks are done with the subject, one must contend with certain beaurocracies, governmental and other acronimically monikered entities, and their prolific involvements in the business of educating. Historically, one may see all the above detailed, explained, presented, succumbed to and paid for in any number of educational, ecclesiastical, scientific, socialogic, geologic and demographic communities.

For all practical purposes ,

The intent of this essay is to strip away the dross of bias and ambiguity on the simplicity of attaining knowledge.

Education
Education is the process by which a person, community, or society shares and passes knowledge, skills, and values from one generation to the next. Education literally means to "bring forth what is within yourself".

Knowledge
Knowledge means to understand an idea or concept. When a person has the capacity and ability to use and act on an idea or concept understanding is achieved and knowledge is acquired. Knowledge may also be narrowly defined as an idea or concept that is understood and believed to be true. How knowledge is acquired is the subject of many theories and research efforts in the field of Epistemology".

The definition of knowledge is a matter of on-going debate among philosophers in the field of epistemology.

Terminology
Trivium, Quadrivium, Septuavium, and Human intervention in the science of knowledge and acquiring knowledge.

Collaborative learning
To collaborate in its general term of discuss and cooperate on the subject of learning in its general term of attaining knowledge in its general term of concensus of factual information. The division of knowledge into topical categories is not necessarily the scope of this section heading and others may collaborate on such topical interests in another heading section, however this section deals with how we may see eye to eye on the "subject" of learning. The scope of this section heading, as I intend, is to tie the term "education" to the process of how we learn, and that by how we are taught. To further narrow the cooperation part, learning in the context of attaining knowledge would entail the "how do we learn" part as synonamous to learning by experience and learning by being taught by someone else; herein the cooperative discussion may see fit to add other means of acquiring such general knowledge while keeping a safe distance from particular knowledge. The scope of this discussion should maintain that education is the means to this end.
