? ? ? ?Schooling and Education{{/B}} ? ?It is
commonly believed in the United States that school is where people go to get an
education. Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their
education to go to school. The distinction between schooling and education
implied by this remark is important. ? ?Education is much more
open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education knows no limits, it can
take place anywhere, whether in the shower or in the job, whether in a kitchen
or in a theatre. It includes both the formal learning that takes place in
schools and the whole universe of informal learning. The agents of education can
range from a respected grandparent to the people debating politics on the radio,
from a child to a distinguished scientist. Whereas schooling has a certain
predictability, education quite often produces surprises. A chance conversation
with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other
religions. People are engaged in education from infancy (婴儿期) on. Education,
then, is a very broad, inclusive term. It is a lifelong (一生的) process, a process
that starts long before the start of school, and one that should be an integral
(基本的) part of one’s entire life. ? ?Schooling, on the other hand,
is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little from one
setting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at
approximately the same time, take assigned (指定的) seats, are taught by an adult,
use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The slices of reality
that are to be learned, whether they are words or an understanding of the
working of government, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the
subject being taught. For example, high school students know that they are not
likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems in their
communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with. There are
definite conditions surrounding the formalized process of
schooling.
The fact that children arrive at school at about the same time shows that
