Education and Human Nature

A very beginning matter that we should consider in thinking about education is our belief about the nature of human and the meaning that we percept from this word, “Human”. The other aspect of this matter is the goal of human creation. I think these two principles can shape our belief about education; because I believe education is a process which helps any creature to be its best format. For example imagine a flower; the education is the way that we treat it in order to be best flower in its kind. In other word education is a path to excellence. Education should help any creature to find the excellent format that it would have.

Now we should answer some question, what is the nature of human? What conditions a creature must have to be called “Human”? What is the goal of human creation? I believe human wrought of three aspects, material, human and spiritual. Every human have so many latent gifts which are potential. And this human must have a condition in order to be a real human, this condition is serving. That is human is a creature that serve all mankind. The last question refers to first and second answer, the goal of human creation is to discover its capacities and use them in way of serving other people.
