'''Education''' [[List of education topics|encompasses]] [[teaching]] and [[learning]] specific [[skill]]s, and also something less tangible but more profound: the imparting of [[knowledge]], positive [[judgement]] and well-developed [[wisdom]]. Education has as one of its fundamental aspects the imparting of [[culture]] even as it is seen that "the family is the channel through which the river of culture and knowledge flows from one generation to another."[http://urantia.org/cgi-bin/webglimpse/mfs/usr/local/www/data/papers?link=http://mercy.urantia.org/papers/paper84.html&file=/usr/local/www/data/papers/paper84.html&line=28#mfs]

Education means 'to draw out', facilitating realisation of self-potential and latent talents of an [[individual]]. It is an application of [[pedagogy]], a body of theoretical and applied research relating to teaching and learning and draws on many disciplines such as [[psychology]], [[philosophy]], [[computer science]], [[linguistics]], [[neuroscience]], [[sociology]] and [[anthropology]].[http://www.teachersmind.com/education.htm An overview of education]

The education of an [[individual]] [[human]] begins at birth and continues throughout life. (Some believe that education begins even before birth, as evidenced by some parents' playing [[music]] or reading to the baby in the womb in the hope it will influence the child's development.) For some, the struggles and triumphs of daily life provide far more instruction than does formal [[school]]ing (thus [[Mark Twain]]'s admonition to "never let school interfere with your education"). [[Family]] members may have a profound educational effect, often more profound than they realize, though family teaching may function very informally.
