Does Formal Education Tend To Restrain Our Minds And Spirits?

Formal education is a systematic way of learning. Formal education makes one creative individual, plays an important role in one’s development. Formal education, if imparted carefully does not restrain mind but set it free.

Formal education is a ladder like system in which child learn things according to their age. In formal education, child study with other individual of their age and learn to communicate well. Teachers and curriculum plays an important role in it. Curriculum should not be based on memorizing part only; it should also include lots of analyzing part to develop the thought process of children. Thought process does not restrain one’s mind but open it to think in all different direction. If a teacher instead of giving loads of homework to student which may act as burden on student gives few activities to student which involves analytic thinking will help student to develop. Homework will be a fun activity for them; they will also learn a lot from it. Student should not study only to get good marks, but to learn and understand the concept also.

If formal education would have restrained our mind then development must have been ceased. But it is not so as we are day by day advancing in technology, take for example in every sphere from agricultural machines to spacecrafts advancement in technology has taken place and is still going on; humans have developed many vaccines to fight against fatal disease, this is the outcome of free mind only.

Formal education is necessary for complete development of individual. It improves communication skills, develops logical thinking. Formal education does not restrain one’s mind rather set it free.
