The definition of knowledge is familiarity, awareness, or understanding gained through experience or study. Knowledge is acquired through study. Knowledge is a student's achievement through learning and studying what you have learned. I feel that knowledge can be achieved by a person who is willing to learn. The purpose of education is to learn something new.
Education is the most important thing in one's life.
Without education, one would get nowhere. I feel that progressivism and essentialism is the best way for a student to learn. It provides change, common core, and fun. As teachers our responsibility is to teach the children to the best of our ability, but it is also to motivate the students to learning. Teachers need to make learning as fun and knowledgeable as possible.
