No.. both . Learning is what happens by the individual , whether at playground, School, behind the bicycle shed , in the pub the workplace or the football field. Education is the directed activity by the teacher to get learning happening.
I always smile when someone assumes they know what is meant by education.
That's your take on it. Thanks.
Education, I can assure you, often takes place both without teachers and often in spite of them.
Once had to take under my wing a lad who had never ventured into until he was 14.
In some respects he was most learned, best educated kid I, d met. In others he was like a 4 Yr old.??? Unbelievably Street wise. Well educated??Not in our world.. In his I couldn't compete. More worldly wise than you and I put together.
Sometimes education happens in a way we wish it hadn't. Kids playing system to a degree which makes us look silly... Ask them to read something... And they struggle.
Who is best educated. A kid that can work system to his/her advantage or one that can read fluently???
One that can break into and start any car you name within a minute or so or one that knows algebra.???
I had 32 years in education and never figured it out. Perhaps I had a poor education with my degrees and diplomas.???
